| Abstract | :
We examined distinctiveness of different aspects of body-image disturbance in persons categorized with eating/weight disorders. We compared dissatisfaction with weight/shape, overvaluation of weight/shape, preoccupation with weight/shape, and fear of weight gain - in three study groups of persons categorized with overweight/obesity [O/O], bulimia nervosa [BN], and binge-eating disorder [BED] and examined how each body-image construct relates to clinical measures within and between the study groups. |
