Objective: The relationship between self-reported interpersonal difficulties and eating disorder symptoms is well-established. The Interpersonal Relationships in Eating Disorders (IR-ED) is a new measure of eating-specific interpersonal difficulties (food-related isolation, avoidance of body evaluation, foot-related interpersonal tension). This study aims to (1) explore changes in IR-ED scores, eating disorder symptoms, and psychosocial impairment during ten-session cognitive behavioral therapy for eating disorders (CBT-T), (2) assess whether pre-treatment IR-ED scores moderate the trajectory of change in eating disorder symptoms and psychosocial impairment during CBT-T and (3) investigate the relationship between changes in the IR-ED and changes in eating disorder symptoms and psychosocial impairment.

Article Synopsis
  • Food environments play a key role in shaping eating habits and tackling obesity, but current frameworks overlook how these environments develop and the connections between various actors involved.
  • This study utilizes Actor-Network Theory to investigate and explain the complex interactions among human and nonhuman actors in food environments, aiming for a broader understanding of unhealthy eating from a transdisciplinary perspective.
  • The research will involve a mixed-methods approach across four phases in Chile, including literature reviews, surveys, focus groups, and participant observation, ultimately creating a model to illustrate the interactions and practices within food environments.

Methods: This cross-sectional study employed a telephone survey administered to a subset of all medical doctors (MDs) working in the healthcare system clinics of USFQ between 2021 and 2022.

Objective: Interpersonal problems have been identified as a plausible mechanism underlying the onset and maintenance of eating disorders. The Interpersonal Relationships in Eating Disorders (IR-ED) scale is the first eating disorders-specific measure of interpersonal problems, which was developed in a nonclinical sample. The aims of the current study were to (a) confirm the factor structure of the IR-ED within a large clinical sample, (b) investigate measurement invariance of the IR-ED across nonclinical and clinical samples, (c) examine the convergent validity of the IR-ED using a generic measure of interpersonal problems, and (d) investigate the incremental clinical utility of the IR-ED in uniquely predicting eating disorder symptomatology.
