Facetten der Körperbildstörung: eine differenzielle Analyse des TEK-KJ (Test zur Erfassung der Körperbildstörung bei Kindern und Jugendlichen) zur direkten Messung haptisch-perzeptiver Anteile
Zusammenfassung. Zur Erfassung der haptisch-perzeptiven Komponente der Körperbildstörung – einem Kernkriterium der Essstörungen Anorexia nervosa und Bulimia nervosa – stehen nur sehr wenige gut evaluierte Verfahren zur Verfügung.

Dies beinhaltet die Prüfung der konvergenten Validität im Vergleich zur Contour Drawing Rating Scale (CDRS) und die Analyse von Unterschieden zwischen Kindern und Jugendlichen verschied…
Momentary emotion identification in female adolescents with and without anorexia nervosa.

Analysis on an aggregated level revealed a significant lower mean emotion identification in the AN group. In a mixed model analysis, the AN group showed lower emotion identification than the control group (HC). Both a general and a group effect of time of day were found, indicating that emotion identification improved during the day in HC, whereas a negligible decrease of the emoti…
Prevalence and severity of eating disorders: A comparison of DSM-IV and DSM-5 among German adolescents.
Objective Changes in the DSM-5 eating disorders criteria sought to increase the clarity of the diagnostic categories and to decrease the preponderance of nonspecified eating disorders. The first objective of this study was to analyze how these revisions affect threshold and EDNOS/OSFED eating disorder diagnoses in terms of prevalence, sex ratios, and diagnostic distribution in a student sample. Second, we aimed to compare the impairment levels of participants with a threshold, an EDNOS/OSFED and no diagnosis using both DSM-IV and DSM-5. Method A sample of 1654 7th and 8th grade students completed self-report questionnaires to determine diagnoses and impairment levels in the context of an ea…
