The aim of the present study was to provide normative data for the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) among undergraduate Japanese women and to compare these data to norms obtained from previous studies. Undergraduate Japanese women (n = 289), aged 18-24 years, were administered the EDE-Q. The mean global score in the present study was 1.55 (SD = 1.03). Japanese women reported significantly higher scores of shape concern and weight concern in spite of lower body mass index but a significantly lower score of restraint, compared with women in other normative studies. There were significant differences with respect to the occurrence of some specific eating disorder behaviours between Japanese women and women in the previous studies. Differences in normative data for the EDE-Q between young Japanese women and young women in the previous studies suggest that there may be certain cultural differences in eating disorder psychopathology.
本研究旨在为日本女大学生提供饮食障碍检查问卷（EDE-Q）的常模数据，并将这些数据与以往研究获得的常模进行比较。对 289 名年龄在 18-24 岁之间的日本女大学生进行了 EDE-Q 测试。本研究的平均总分为 1.55（SD=1.03）。尽管日本女性的身体质量指数较低，但在体形担忧和体重担忧方面的得分明显更高，而在节制方面的得分明显更低，与其他常模研究中的女性相比。与以往研究中的女性相比，日本女性在某些特定饮食障碍行为的发生上存在显著差异。EDE-Q 常模数据在日本年轻女性和以往研究中的年轻女性之间存在差异，这表明在饮食障碍的精神病理学方面可能存在某些文化差异。
