Gastric symptoms and low perceived maternal warmth are associated with eating disorder symptoms in young adolescent girls

International Journal of Eating Disorders Apr 14, 2021

Kerr KL, Ralph‐Nearman C, Colaizzi JM, et al. - Using longitudinal data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study, researchers examined if gastric symptoms are linked with later eating disorder (ED) symptoms during early adolescence, and if this correlation is moderated by parental warmth/acceptance and/or the child's gender. Measures were provided by participants ages 9–10 years old (N = 4,950; 2,370 female) at baseline and 1 year later (Y1). At baseline, measurement of gastric symptoms was done by parent‐reported items from the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), and of perceived parental acceptance using youth reports on the Children's Report of Parent Behavior Inventory (CRPBI) Acceptance subscale separately for mothers and fathers. Per findings, a three‐way interaction between baseline gastric symptoms, gender, and maternal acceptance was identified to be predictive of Y1 ED symptoms. In young adolescent girls, gastric symptoms and low perceived maternal acceptance may interact to result in increased risk for EDs.
