【 摘 要 】

Background: There is a clear need for a standardized definition of recovery from eating disorders (EDs) and for self-report instruments to assess where individuals with an ED are situated at a given point of time along their process of illness and recovery. It has been acknowledged that psychological and cognitive symptoms are important to recovery in addition to physical and behavioral indices. This study proposes a 28-item multidimensional questionnaire encompassing the main features of recovery from ED, derived from the endorsement of different criteria by people with a lifetime ED diagnosis, family members and ED clinicians.
