Gender-based differential item functioning in measures of eating pathology

International Journal of Eating Disorders Jul 02, 2019

Schaefer LM, et al. - For three frequently used eating disorder symptom measures, researchers investigated if item endorsement varied by gender using differential item functioning (DIF) analyses. Undergraduate men (n=1,083) and women (n=2,424) from three universities in the United States had their global scores on the Eating Attitudes Test-26, Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire, and Eating Disorder Diagnostic Scale for DSM-IV assessed. As per findings, the examined measures perform similarly for undergraduate men and women. This supports their value in nonclinical male samples. There was no indication of clinically significant DIF within any of the three measures.
