Background: Currently, we know little regarding how stigma attributed to eating disorders compares to that of other psychological disorders and additionally within different types of eating disorders. In the current study, we aimed to explore the stigmatisation of eating disorders by comparing the stigma attributed to anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder, utilising depression as a comparative control.

Methods: A total of 235 participants from the general population were randomly assigned to an anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, or depression condition.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzes how body mass index (BMI) correlates with the severity of eating disorders (ED), while also considering neuropsychological factors like decision-making and emotional regulation.
  • It involves a sample of 193 ED patients and uses structural equation modeling to reveal that BMI directly impacts ED severity, with ED symptoms mediating relationships with emotional regulation and impulsiveness.
  • The findings suggest that improving decision-making and emotional regulation can aid in developing better treatment interventions for ED, alongside nutrition education to help manage patients' relationships with food.

Understanding the intricate interplay between biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors to eating, exercise and body image is paramount to understand the current state regarding EDs and to deliver/develop multifaceted and individualised treatments.
