    (Elsevier B.V., 2014-05-28) Alvarenga, Marle dos Santos; Koritar, Priscila; Pisciolaro, Fernanda; Mancini, Marcio Corrêa; Cordás, Táki Athanássios; Scagliusi, Fernanda Baeza [UNIFESP]; Universidade de São Paulo (USP); Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    The objective was to compare eating attitudes, conceptualized as beliefs, thoughts, feelings, behaviors and relationship with food, of anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED) patients and a group of obese (OBS) without eating disorders (ED). Female patients from an Eating Disorder (ED) Unit with AN (n = 42), BN (n = 52) and BED (n = 53) and from an obesity service (n = 37) in Brazil answered the Disordered Eating Attitude Scale (DEAS) which evaluate eating attitudes with 5 subscales: relationship with food, concerns about food and weight gain, restrictive and compensatory practices, feelings toward eating, and idea of normal eating. OBS patients were recruited among those without ED symptoms according to the Binge Eating Scale and the Questionnaire on Eating and Weight Patterns. ANOVA was used to compare body mass index and age between groups. Bonferroni test was used to analyze multiple comparisons among groups. AN and BN patients presented more dysfunctional eating attitudes and OBS patients less dysfunctional (p < 0.001). for DEAS total score, AN and BN patients were similar and all other were different (p < 0.001). Similarities suggested between BN and BED were true just for the Relationship with food and Idea of normal eating. BED patients were worst than OBS for Relationship with food and as dysfunctional as AN patients - besides their behavior could be considered the opposite. Differences and similarities support a therapeutic individualized approach for ED and obese patients, call attention for the theoretical differences between obesity and ED, and suggest more research focused on eating attitudes.

    Propriedades psicométricas da Escala de Atitudes Alimentares Transtornadas para adultos do sexo masculino
    (Instituto de Psiquiatria da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, 2013-12-01) Alvarenga, Marle dos Santos; Carvalho, Pedro Henrique Berbert de; Philippi, Sonia Tucunduva; Scagliusi, Fernanda Baeza [UNIFESP]; Universidade de São Paulo (USP); Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora Programa de Pós-Graduação em Psicologia; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate psychometric properties of the Disordered Eating Attitude Scale (DEAS) for men. METHODS: Two hundred and twenty-eight undergraduate male students (18-39 years old) answered the DEAS, originally developed and validated for women. Internal consistency was evaluated by Cronbach's Alpha; convergent validity by comparing DEAS and the Eating Attitude (EAT) and Restraint Scale (RS) scores using Pearson's coefficient. Test-retest reliability was evaluated with a subsample (n = 38) in a month interval by means of intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Known-groups validity was obtained comparing scores in DEAS among undergraduate students and men with eating disorders (ED) (n = 28). RESULTS: Internal consistency of scale was 0.63. DEAS score correlated with EAT (r = 0.65) and RS (r = 0.51); ICC between test and retest was 0.948. Known-groups analysis differentiated ED patients and undergraduate students (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The scale presented adequate psychometric properties and could be used in studies with adult men, since the construct is not explored among males. Nevertheless, it is recommended to revise the scale and to develop specific instruments for male public.
