Abstract | :
DSM-5 describe three forms of restrictive and selective eating: Anorexia Nervosa-Restrictive (AN-R), Anorexia Nervosa-Atypical (AN-A), and Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). While AN is widely studied, the psychopathological differences among these three diseases are not clear. The aim of this study was to (i) compare the clinical features of AN-R, AN-A, and ARFID, in a clinical sample recruited from a specialized EDs program within a tertiary care children's Hospital; (ii) identifying three specific symptom profiles, to better understand if restrictive ED share a common psychopathological basis. |
