Screening for Eating Disorders in Undergraduate Women: Norms and Validity of the Spanish Version of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q)

Factor structure and construct validity of the eating disorder examination‐questionnaire in college students: Further support for a modified brief version

“…This study used CFA to examine the factor structure of the EDE‐Q in a convenience sample of young adult college students. This study, like all previous empirical tests of the self‐report and interview versions of the EDE—except for two—failed to support the original hypothesized scale structure. In this study with young predominately nonoverweight adult college students, we observed further clear support for a seven‐item, three‐factor structure identified and subsequently confirmed by CFA in three studies by Grilo et al with predominately overweight/obese clinical and nonclinical samples.…”

“…Weight concern 0.863 2. 25 image considered a core feature of eating disorders. 35 These CFA findings converge with earlier EFA findings that the two overvaluation items loaded separately from the other body image items.…”

“…The extension and replication of the seven-item three-factor structure in two studies of the EDE-Q is particularly noteworthy. Specifically, although several other studies have investigated the structure of the EDE-Q using a variety of EFA and CFA methods with various samples of adults, [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] minimal evidence 24,25 supports the original four-factor structure as the remaining studies reported an array of disparate solutions.…”

“…Additionally, normative data provides a baseline distribution in a representative sample of individuals with eating disorders and establishes a baseline for comparison to healthy controls and individuals who have recovered from an eating disorder. Currently, normative data exists in a myriad of adult populations such as undergraduate students (Darcy, Hardy, Lock, Hill, & Peebles, 2013; Keane, Clarke, McGrath, Farrelly, & MacHale, 2017; Kelly, Cotter, & Mazzeo, 2012; Lavender, De Young, & Anderson, 2010; Luce & Crowther, 1999; Luce, Crowther, & Pole, 2008; Nakai et al, 2014; Quick & Byrd-Bredbenner, 2013; Reas, Overas, & Ro, 2012; Ro, Reas, & Lask, 2010; Villarroel, Penelo, Portell, & Raich, 2011), community samples (Hilbert, de Zwaan, & Braehler, 2012; Machado et al, 2014; Mond, Hay, Rodgers, & Owen, 2006; Mond, Hay, Rodgers, Owen, & Beumont, 2004), eating disorder (ED) samples (Brewin, Baggott, Dugard, & Arcelus, 2014; Dahlgren, Stedal, & Ro, 2017; Jennings & Phillips, 2017; Smith et al, 2017), and both ED and community samples (Aardoom, Dingemans, Slof Op’t Landt, & Van Furth, 2012; Welch, Birgegard, Parling, & Ghaderi, 2011). …”

Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire: Psychometric Properties and Norms for the Portuguese Population

“…However, EDE-Q scores and norms may vary considerably among countries and populations. Currently, normative and/or psychometric data for the EDE-Q are available in Australia (Mond, Hay, Rodgers, & Owen, 2006), USA (Luce, Crowther, & Pole, 2008;Quick & Byrd-Bredbenner, 2013;Rose, Vaewsorn, Rosseli-Navarra, Wislson, & Weissman, 2013), UK (Carter, Stewart, & Fairburn, 2001;White, Haycraft, Goodwin, & Meyer, 2013), Sweden (Welch, Birgegård, Parling, & Ghaderi, 2011), The Netherlands (Aardoom, Dingemans, Landt, & van Furth, 2012), Spain (Villarroel, Penelo, Portell, & Raich, 2009), Greece (Giovazolis, Tsaounis, & Vallianatou, 2012), Mexico (Penelo, Negrete, Portell, & Raich, 2013), Germany (Hilbert, de Zwaan, & Braehler, 2012), Norway (Reas, Rǿ, Kapstad, & Lask, 2010) and Turkey (Yucel et al, 2011). 1 The first aim of the current study was to establish general population norms for the Portuguese version of the EDE-Q (P-EDE-Q) in a large community sample of female adolescents and young women.…”
