In the OMHRS data, the distribution of scores on the, DSI, CPS, and restraint items are found for the total sample and by diagnostic group in Table 2.
Participants were excluded if there was previous history of an eating disorder, if they had a high BDI-II score (30+) or if they reported any objective bulimic episodes, compensatory behaviour or significant restriction (i.e., 4 or above on restraint items) on the EDE-Q.
Descriptive statistics were calculated for the DSI, CPS, and restraints items to examine the distribution of these scales and items in the OMHRS data.
The following associations were hypothesized: no correlations between the ChEDE-Q items (Restraint over Eating, Fear of Weight Gain, and Dissatisfaction with Weight) with the EDY-Q diagnostic items for ARFID and the EDY-Q mean score, as these ChEDE-Q items cover exclusion criteria for ARFID; positive correlations between the ChEDE-Q items with the EDY-Q items of the exclusion criteria for ARFID.
Convergent validity could be partly documented through associations with ChEDE-Q items on Restraint over Eating, Fear of Weight Gain and Dissatisfaction with Weight with the EDY-Q exclusionary items for ARFID regarding weight and shape concerns.
Only the 5-item Dietary Restraint subscale is used in this study to assess attempts to restrict dietary intake.
Since the original questionnaire was developed specifically to compare seclusion with mechanical restraint, we added three items to cover the subjective distress that had been experienced upon the administration of involuntary medication: "I was held by staff members", "I got medication against my will" and "My functioning was hindered by side-effects of the medication".
Tens of thousands of jobs were lost because of Chinese imports, and in response the government negotiated temporary voluntary restraints on some items.
For the purposes of this study, any use of trunk, limb or chair restraints from relevant items on the assessment was considered for analyses.
Selected eating behaviors namely emotional eating, uncontrolled eating and cognitive restraint are evaluated via the 18-item Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire [ 76], and a 28-item inventory assesses food cravings [ 77].
