The reliability of the Eating Disorder Examination - Self-Report Questionnaire Version (EDE-Q)

Article Abstract:

Research designed to assess the internal consistency and test-retest reliability of the Eating Disorder Examination-Self-Report Questionnaire Version (EDE-Q), a 41-item measure taken from the Eating Disorder Examination, shows that the four subscales of the EDE-Q have very good internal consistency and test-retest reliability. It appears that the major subscales of the EDE-Q are extremely stable. The EDE-Q can be said to be a psychometrically sound self-report measure for the diagnosis of eating disorders.
