Abstract

Data of 40-item measure of the symptoms in eating disorders (EAT, Eating Attitudes Test) on a sample of adolescent girls (N=274) are reported. Their mean scores are compared with data obtained on samples of other studies. After doing factor analysis of the EAT the extracted dimensions are described. Finally, the development of EAT across ages is described, and it’s found a peak in all dimensions at 15-16 year-old teenagers. Implications of these findings for education and prevention are also discussed.
