- Abstract
- The assumption that people with eating disorders are skinny is still widespread, even though there is a co-occurrence between eating disorders and obesity. Despite this co-occurrence, there is a gap in the knowledge regarding questionnaires aimed at assessing eating disorders and subclinical symptoms for people with obesity. Therefore, a systematic review was conducted with the purpose of finding available questionnaires, with reported psychometric properties, aimed at detecting eating-related problems in people with obesity and then examining the psychometric properties. The aim was to suggest the most reliable and valid way of measuring eating-related problems available to clinicians today. We also investigate what clinicians find... (More)

The aim was to suggest the most reliable and valid way of measuring eating-related problems available to clinicians today. We also investigate what clinicians find important regarding such questionnaires by approaching professionals in the field (n=11). Our systematic search resulted in 18 questionnaires, which were then reviewed in relation to quality criteria. The Weight Self-Stigma Questionnaire (WSSQ) and Eating Loss of Control Scale (ELOCS) were given a positive evaluation in 5 out of 7 quality criteria, indicating that they have the best psychometric properties for an obesity population of the included questionnaires. Professionals mentioned a wish to examine eating patterns and behaviors. Out of the forms measuring aspects of this, ELOCS, Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 (YFAS 2.0) and Child Eating Behavior Scale (CEBQ) got the most positive evaluations assessed with our quality criteria. Given the limited number of studies and the lack of qualitative analysis of the opinions from professionals, the results should be interpreted with caution. Hence, more extensive research is needed in the area. (Less)
- Abstract (Swedish)
- Antagandet om att personer med ätstörningar är smala är fortfarande utbrett, trots att det finns ett signifikant samband mellan ätstörningar och obesitas. I linje med detta finns en kunskapslucka avseende skattningsformulär riktade mot att fånga ätstörningar och subkliniska besvär hos personer med obesitas. En systematisk litteraturöversikt genomfördes med syftet att hitta tillgängliga formulär, med rapporterade psykometriska egenskaper, som syftar till att upptäcka ätstörningar eller relaterade problem hos personer med obesitas. Därefter granskades de psykometriska egenskaperna hos tillgängliga skattningsformulär utifrån kvalitetskriterier med syftet att utforska tillförlitliga och valida sätt för kliniker att mäta ätstörningar och...

- Antagandet om att personer med ätstörningar är smala är fortfarande utbrett, trots att det finns ett signifikant samband mellan ätstörningar och obesitas. I linje med detta finns en kunskapslucka avseende skattningsformulär riktade mot att fånga ätstörningar och subkliniska besvär hos personer med obesitas. En systematisk litteraturöversikt genomfördes med syftet att hitta tillgängliga formulär, med rapporterade psykometriska egenskaper, som syftar till att upptäcka ätstörningar eller relaterade problem hos personer med obesitas. Därefter granskades de psykometriska egenskaperna hos tillgängliga skattningsformulär utifrån kvalitetskriterier med syftet att utforska tillförlitliga och valida sätt för kliniker att mäta ätstörningar och relaterade problem. Studien undersökte också vad yrkesverksamma anser vara viktigt relaterat till sådana formulär, vilket gjordes genom att samtala med professionella inom fältet (n=11). Den systematiska sökningen resulterade i 18 inkluderade skattningsformulär, varav The Weight Self-Stigma Questionnaire (WSSQ) och Eating Loss of Control Scale (ELOCS) erhöll positiva värderingar i 5 av 7 kvalitetskriterier och visade sig därigenom ha de bästa psykometriska egenskaperna för en obesitaspopulation i denna litteraturöversikt. Yrkesverksamma lyfte en önskan om formulär som mäter ätbeteenden och ätmönster. Av de formulär som mäter aspekter av detta fick ELOCS, Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 (YFAS 2.0) och Child Eating Behavior Scale (CEBQ) flest positiva värderingar bedömt med våra kvalitetskriterier. Litteraturöversikten innefattar ett begränsat antal studier och de yrkesverksammas åsikter har inte kvalitativt analyserats, vilket innebär att resultaten bör tolkas med viss försiktighet. Framöver behövs mer och omfattande forskning på området. (Less)
