A Reliability Generalization Meta-Analysis of the Eating Attitudes Test 26 (EAT-26) Scale.

The Eating Attitudes Test 26 (EAT-26) scale is a well-established tool for assessing the risk of eating disorders. A reliability generalization meta-analysis was conducted to estimate the average reliability of the EAT-26 scale scores and how reliability estimates vary according to the composition and variability of samples, to identify study characteristics that can explain its variability, and to estimate the reliability induction rate. A literature search produced 14 articles involving 15 studies that met the inclusion criteria.

This study involved systematic searches of electronic databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, and Web of Science.
