To present normative data for the Eating Disorders Examination Questionnaire, 6th edition (EDE-Q) from a large (n = 2,448), diverse (56 % White) sample of college students.
Participants completed the EDE-Q online. Mean scores and percentile ranks for global and subscale (restraint and eating, weight, and shape concerns) scores and binge eating and inappropriate compensatory behavior (dietary restraint, self-induced vomiting, medicine misuse, excessive exercise) frequencies were computed.
Women had higher global and subscale scores and tended to engage in inappropriate compensatory behaviors more often than men. Women with clinically significant restraint, and eating, shape, and weight concerns scores equaled 5.4, 2.0, 18.6, and 13.0 %, respectively, and, for men, equaled 3.0, 0.3, 6.0, and 2.0 %. Compared with less diverse samples, women in this study had significantly higher shape concern and lower restraint and eating concern scores and men had lower shape and weight concern scores.
Normative data from this diverse sample can help healthcare professionals and researchers better interpret EDE-Q scores.
提供 Eating Disorders Examination Questionnaire,第 6 版(EDE-Q)的常模数据,该数据来自一个由 2448 名不同种族(56%为白人)的大学生组成的大型样本。
参与者在线完成 EDE-Q。计算了全球和子量表(克制和进食、体重和体型关注)得分以及暴食和不适当补偿行为(饮食克制、自我诱导呕吐、药物滥用、过度运动)频率的平均得分和百分位排名。
女性的全球和子量表得分较高,且比男性更频繁地采取不适当的补偿行为。具有临床显著克制、进食、体型和体重问题的女性,其得分分别为 5.4、2.0、18.6 和 13.0%,而男性的得分分别为 3.0、0.3、6.0 和 2.0%。与样本多样性较低的研究相比,本研究中的女性体型关注得分显著较高,而约束和进食关注得分较低,男性体型和体重关注得分较低。
来自这个多样化样本的常模数据可以帮助医疗保健专业人员和研究人员更好地解释 EDE-Q 得分。
