The girls were adolescents attending grade 7-12.Reslults: International consistency was 0.70-0.91 for the ED group. Eleven factors with eigenvalue >2.2 explained 56% of the variance and showed satisfying correspondence to the proposed constructs of EDI-C. A discriminant analysis classified 85.6% of the cases correctly. The three most important discriminating subscales were Drive for Thinness, Asceticism and Body Dissatisfaction. All subbscales except Maturity Fears showed significantly higher mean values for the ED group.Conclusions:The results indicate that the psychometric properties of EDI-C care comparable to the properties of EDI-2. EDI-C should be preferred for adolescents since its statements suit this age group.
