Objective: As part of the International Collaborative Study of Eating Disorders in
Adolescence, with sites in West and East Berlin, Zurich, and Sofia, eating
attitudes and disorders were studied in four Bulgarian samples. Method: The fating Attitude Test (EAT) and the Eating Disorders Inventory (ED/) were used in this study.

Results: Findings revealed excellent discriminant validity of the EAT total score and the three subscales. This also applied to four out of eight subscales of the EDI. Discriminant validity was less satisfactory in three further scales and entirely missing for Maturity Fears.
