“…Furthermore, our 3-factor model has 14 items compared to 22 items of the original EDE-Q, as 8 items were removed according to EFA and CFA results of 2 halves split dataset. Similar removing were found in versions including the Italian [ 27 ], Sweden [ 51 ], and Turkish [ 53 ]. Both Sweden and Turkish versions had 13 items in their model compared to the original EDE-Q-22, whereas the Italian version had only 7 items in its model.…”

“…Unlike our study, these versions were validated among narrower target populations such as adolescents or university students. On the other hand, versions such as the Spanish [ 28 ], Turkish [ 53 ], Italian [ 27 ], and Fijian [ 54 ] were similar to the original EDE-Q as a four-factor model. Their population were nonclinical and varied from a wide age range including adults to a narrow age range focusing on teenagers.…”

Validity and Consistency of the Arabic Version of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) among Saudi Adults

et al. 2023

The prevalence of eating disorders (EDs) is growing, and early screening is important to prevent related health complications. The Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) has been widely used as a diagnostic tool to identify cases of EDs; however, a validated Arabic version of the tool is needed to help in the screening process of EDs. The aim of this study was to validate the Arabic version of EDE-Q. A cross-sectional study included a sample of 549 adults, who were recruited mainly from the four major provinces in Saudi Arabia. A forward–backward translation method was conducted, and then the tool was validated using the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The dataset was split for further convergent analysis using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and CFA. The results of CFA from the main dataset did not support the four-factor original EDE-Q. The results of EFA from the first data-split suggested a three-factor EDE-Q-14 Arabic version. This was supported by the results of CFA of the second data-split. A total of five items were allocated in each shape and weight concern, and restraint component, with correlations ranging from 0.969 and 0.462 and from 0.847 to 0.437, respectively. A total of four items were allocated in eating concern, with correlations ranging from 0.748 to 0.556. The internal consistency of the global and the three subscales were high, with Cronbach’s α ranging from 0.762 to 0.900. Findings of the current study suggest that the Arabic version of the EDE-Q-14 is a valid and reliable tool to screen for EDs among adults in Saudi Arabia.

“…It offers the additional advantage of focusing on the past seven days, which is particularly relevant for routine clinical assessments but may be of less importance in research settings. It's also worth mentioning that preliminary research has explored a version of the EDE-Q7 that includes the behavioral items from the EDE-Q [ 18 , 36 ]. Furthermore, it's vital to acknowledge that self-report measures such as the EDE-Q7 are insufficient for establishing clinical diagnoses.…”

“…It generates five factors, with the two additional factors (compared to the EDE-Q7) reflecting binge-eating and purging behaviors. Two studies have supported its psychometric soundness [ 18 , 36 ], but further research is required to substantiate its psychometric properties. We note that several other abbreviated EDE-Q versions have been suggested in the literature (e.g., [ 6 , 8 , 19 ]).…”

Background The Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) is among the most widely used self-report measures of eating disorder (ED) psychopathology. There is a need for brief versions of the EDE-Q that can be used for general assessment and screening purposes. A three-factor 7-item version (EDE-Q7) seems particularly promising but there is a need for more well-powered studies to establish the psychometric properties in both patient and community samples. Moreover, comparing the EDE-Q7 with the full EDE-Q would be beneficial in determining its utility. In the present study, we provide a psychometric comparison between the brief EDE-Q7 and the full EDE-Q in a large sample of both patients and community comparisons. Methods We pooled available datasets collected in Norway to amass a large female sample comprising both patients (n = 1954, Mage = 28 years) and community comparisons (n = 2430, Mage = 31 years). We investigated the psychometric properties of both versions, including their internal consistency, factor structure, and ability to discriminate between patients and community comparisons. Results The EDE-Q7 showed similar distributions of scores compared to the full EDE-Q but produced higher scores. Results indicated that the EDE-Q7 have acceptable internal consistency and is adequately able to discriminate between clinical and non-clinical samples. A cut-off threshold of 3.64 was optimal in discriminating between patients and comparisons. We also found support for the three-factor solution for the EDE-Q7, indicating good structural validity. In contrast, we did not find support for the originally proposed four-factor solution of the full EDE-Q. Conclusions We find that the brief EDE-Q7 performs close to the full EDE-Q in several respects. Our findings indicate that the brief EDE-Q7 may be a viable alternative to the full EDE-Q in situations where response burden is an issue (e.g., epidemiological studies). However, the EDE-Q7 may hold limited value over the full EDE-Q in clinical settings, due to the small number of items and lack of assessment of behavioral features.

“…In the original study, Cronbach's α value for the EDE-QS total score was 0.91. The validity and reliability study of the Turkish version of this scale in an adult sample was conducted by Esin et al [ 13 ]. In this study, Cronbach's α value for the Turkish version of the parent version of EDE-QS total score was 0.88.…”

Background The nine item avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder screen (NIAS) is a short and practical assessment tool specific to ARFID with three ARFID phenotypes such as “Picky eating,” “Fear,” and “Appetite”. This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish translation of the NIAS parent form and to investigate the relationship between ARFID symptoms and anxiety, depression symptoms, and eating behaviors in a sample of Turkish children. Method Parents were asked to provide their children's sociodemographic data and to complete the NIAS, Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire-Short (EDE-QS), Children's Eating Behavior Questionnaire (CEBQ), and Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS) scales. Results The sample included 440 participants between 6 and 12 ages. Turkish NIAS demonstrated good internal consistency. The three-factor model of the Turkish NIAS was in an acceptable structure. The Turkish NIAS scale was shown to be valid and reliable. NIAS scores were shown to be higher in underweight participants. The NIAS-parent version subscales showed expected convergent and divergent validity with the CEBQ, EDEQ-S, and RCADS scales in children, except CEBQ emotional overeating and desire to drink subscales were correlated with NIAS. Conclusion The Turkish version of the NIAS is valid and reliable in evaluating ARFID symptoms in children.
