Seven hundred sixteen female UCLA students--drawn from Primary Care Clinic, Women's Health Clinic, sorority, athletic team, dance major, and undergraduate psychology class populations--completed questionnaires regarding eating disorders symptoms and attitudes compatible with the diagnostic criteria published by the American Psychiatric Association in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, (3rd ed., DSM-III), the Eating Disorders Inventory, and related information. The purpose of the study was to determine the prevalence of eating disorders and eating disorder-related symptoms in particular subgroups for targeting intervention and prevention programs. Although between 7.5% and 46% of subgroup populations reported the presence of individual eating disorder-related symptoms, the prevalence of active eating disorders for the group as a whole at the time of the survey was 2.1%, with the prevalence of disorders at any time during life 4.8%, using DSM-III diagnosis. The Eating Disorders Inventory scores for the group as a whole were comparable with norms reported by other researchers in the literature. Primary Care Clinic attenders and dance majors reported the highest rates of symptoms and disorders, while athletes reported the lowest rates.
716名来自加州大学洛杉矶分校的女学生——她们来自初级保健诊所、妇女健康诊所、姐妹会、运动队、舞蹈专业以及本科心理学课堂——完成了关于饮食失调症状和态度的问卷调查，这些症状和态度与美国精神病学协会在《诊断与统计手册》（第3版，DSM-III）中公布的诊断标准、饮食失调量表以及相关信息相符。该研究的目的是确定特定亚组中饮食失调及与饮食失调相关症状的患病率，以便针对干预和预防项目。尽管7.5%至46%的亚组人群报告存在与饮食失调相关的个别症状，但根据DSM-III诊断，在调查时该组整体中活跃饮食失调的患病率为2.1%，一生中任何时候的患病率为4.8%。该组整体的饮食失调量表得分与文献中其他研究者报告的标准相当。初级保健诊所就诊者和舞蹈专业学生报告的症状和失调发生率最高，而运动员报告的发生率最低。
