The Role of Affect in the Maintenance of Restrictive Eating Behaviors across Eating Disorders

This study investigated the role of affective states in restrictive eating behaviors across eating disorder diagnoses using an ecological momentary assessment (EMA) design. Women with atypical anorexia nervosa (atypical AN, n = 21), anorexia nervosa-restrictive subtype (AN-R, n = 24), anorexia nervosa-binge eating/purging subtype (AN-BP, n = 27), and bulimia nervosa (BN, n = 52) completed questionnaires and then completed 14 days of EMA, including five daily signal-contingent surveys assessing affect and skipped meals and event-contingent surveys upon eating that assessed restriction. Analysis of variance were used to compare trait level variables, and multilevel analyses were used to investigate the momentary relationship between affect and restrictive eating behaviors
