β¦ Synopsis
Among 261 undergraduate women, increased severity of eating disorders along a continuum was associated with decreased selfβesteem, increased perfectionism, and increased scores on 7 subscales of the Eating Disorders Inventoryβ2. Women with eating disorders differed from both symptomatic women and asymptomatic women on all variables, whereas symptomatic women differed from asymptomatic women only on selfβesteem, perfectionism, ineffectiveness, body dissatisfaction, and interoceptive awareness. Discriminant analysis correctly classified 45.2% of the women with eating disorders and 59% of the overall sample.
