Identifying a male clinical cutoff on the Eating Disorder Examination ‐Questionnaire (EDE‐Q)

DiscussionOverall, results provide preliminary support for the discriminant validity of EDE ‐Q scores among males.

Therefore, careful attention to the possibility for measurement bias and continued evaluation of the scale in males is encouraged.
