Abstract

This study examines the characteristics of eating disorders in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) compared to adolescents without T1D. Analyzing a sample of 132 adolescents with T1D and 132 without T1D, the study used the Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI-3 FT) to assess the prevalence of the drive for thinness, body dissatisfaction, and bulimic behavior. The results indicate a higher prevalence of bulimic behavior, body dissatisfaction, and drive to thinness in adolescents with T1D compared to those without. The study highlights the complexity of managing T1D and its impact on the risks of EDs, suggesting the need for integrated screening strategies and tailored psychological support. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the interaction between chronic health conditions and eating behavior, which is essential for improving therapeutic interventions and support offered to adolescents with T1D.
