Abstract

This paper describes the development of two measures. The first is designed to assess eating disorder-related automatic thoughts; the second is designed to assess a wide range of eating disorder-related behaviors. Principal components analysis identified three dimensions of thoughts: positive thoughts about eating, negative thoughts about eating, and permissive thoughts. Principal components analysis also identified six dimensions of behavior related to: shape and weight, bingeing, dieting, food, eating, and overeating. Both measures possess promising psychometric properties, including good construct and criterion-related validity. Both successfully discriminated eating disorder patients from dieting and non-dieting groups. The two measures may be useful additions to those currently available to researchers (and clinicians) interested in eating disorders.

These are not discussed further here as the current paper focuses more on automatic thought level cognitions.

Copies of the two questionnaire measures and scoring keys can be obtained from the senior author.

Eigenvalues beyond the third greater than 1.00 were as follows: 1.4, 1.1.

Eigenvalues beyond the sixth greater than 1.00 were as follows: 1.4, 1.2, 1.1.
