[11] [14] Use of the EAT-26 as a screening tool could also result in high false-negative rates in individuals with binge eating disorder (BED) or eating disorders not otherwise specified (EDNOS). [15] Such rates may be due to changes over time in the DSM and ICD criteria for eating disorders from which the items in the EAT are based. Another ...
