OBJECTIVE: The aim of the article is to report on the psychometric properties of a newly developed self-rating scale (Munich Eating and Feeding Disorder Questionnaire) for the detailed assessment of eating and feeding disorders on the basis of the @entity4987 criteria. The questionnaire aims at developing a comprehensive assessment of @entity1277 symptoms suitable for severity ratings with regard to total scale and subscales, for deriving @entity1277 diagnoses according to @entity4987 and ICD-10 and for measuring (intervention induced) changes over time. METHODS: Items were formulated by clinical experts and entered into factor analysis in two separate samples of eating-disordered inpatients. Additionally, 47 clinical and 547 community control @entity1 were assessed. Internal consistency and sensitivity to change over time are also reported. RESULTS: Three subscales were identified covering 'preoccupation with figure and weight', ' @entity391 ' for current and past state. Test-retest reliability for the three subscales ranged between .95 and .98 (current status). A high sensitivity to change during inpatient treatment from admission to discharge was expressed in high effect sizes; for the total score (current status) for all @entity1277 , the effect size was 1.70. Effect sizes for @entity1278 were mostly lower than those for @entity1279 . Clinical and community controls obtained significantly lower scores compared with eating-disordered @entity1 . CONCLUSION: This new @entity4987 questionnaire shows satisfying psychometric properties and is well suited for the rating of @entity1277 severity in clinical practice and research.
