EAT-26 12+

The app is a well-known test for identifying eating disorders.

The Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) is probably the most widely used standardised measure of symptoms and concerns characteristic of eating disorders (Garner & Garfinkel, 1979; Garner, Olmsted, Bohr, & Garfinkel, 1982). The 26-item version (Garner et al., 1989) is highly reliable and valid. The EAT-26 alone does not yield a specific diagnosis of an eating disorder (neither the EAT-26, nor any other screening instrument, has been established as highly efficient as the sole means for identifying eating disorders).
Nevertheless, many studies have used the EAT-26 as an economical first step in a two-stage screening process.
The EAT-26 can be used in group or individual settings and is designed to be self- administered or be administered by health professionals, school counsellors, coaches, camp counsellors, and others with interest in gathering information to determine if an individual should be referred to a specialist for evaluation for an eating disorder.

The version of the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) has three criteria for determining if you should seek further evaluation of your risk of having an eating disorder. These are:

1) The total score on the actual EAT test items;
2) Behavioural questions indicating possible eating disorder symptoms or recent significant weight loss;
3) Low body weight compared to age-matched norms.

The app is not a medical instrument and is not a method for diagnosing a health condition.
The EAT-26 is not designed to make a diagnosis of an eating disorder or to take the place of a professional diagnosis or consultation.
The EAT-26 alone does not yield a specific diagnosis of an eating disorder. Neither the EAT-26, nor any other screening instrument, has been established as highly efficient as the sole means for identifying eating disorders.
Body mass index (BMI) is a person’s weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters.
BMI can be a screening tool, but it does not diagnose the body fatness or health of an individual.
