Recent studies underscore the relevance of life meaning to maintenance eating disorders. A previously conducted randomized controlled trial tested a meaning-centered intervention for female university students with high weight and shape concerns. After 6-week online led by trainer, participants in condition scored higher on lower disorder symptoms general distress compared waitlist group. Given that original study took place during COVID-19, this replicated design test findings' robustness. Compared (n = 68), 63) again presence at post-assessment follow-up. Participants also showed moderately internalizing both timepoints, whereas were only reduced those relatively baseline symptom severity. Thus, without social distancing measures, increased comorbid women

Background Eating disorders (ED) involve dysfunctional attitudes towards food intake, affecting physical and psychosocial well-being. These significantly impact various domains of life can lead to a decrease in health-related quality (HRQoL). Recent studies emphasize the importance addressing HRQoL ED treatment, particularly context social isolation loneliness, but this aspect is currently poorly evaluated. Methods A sample 220 people with an was enrolled for study from different centers specialized treatment compared 151 general population. Different validated questionnaires were used evaluate eating psychopathology, HRQoL, loneliness. Partial correlation analyzes adjusted marital status regressions relationships between constructs differences groups. Results Higher feelings loneliness associated poorer patients controls. In group, both psychopathology significant predictors HRQoL. Meanwhile, duration disorder predicted specifically underweight patients, BMI predictor individuals normal or above-normal weight. Conclusions findings highlight considering EDs, among younger individuals. This approach aligns increasing focus on role interpersonal recovery process. Additionally, data confirm link weight suggesting that connection, especially those other weights, deserves further investigation.
