Eating Attitudes

Also known as: EAT-26 · Eating disorder screening

Attitudes and behaviors associated with disordered eating, across three domains: dieting (caloric restriction and body image concern), bulimia and food preoccupation (binge-purge behaviors and intrusive food thoughts), and oral control (perceived social pressure regarding eating and self-control around food). A screening tool, not a diagnostic instrument.
