Article Abstract:
A study aims to test how simple self-report questions and three Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI) subscales function as eating disorder screening instruments in a population survey of young women. It concludes that simple screening questions, although less than ideal, are at least as good as other available instruments for community screenings.
