EVT
Essverhalten-Test
Short abstract
The procedure provides a quantitative and qualitative measure of the diagnosis, strength and manifestation of bulimia symptoms. The Bulimia Test (BULIT) by Smith and Thelen (1984) served as the basis. The EVT consists of 20 items. Reliability: A consistency coefficient of .96 was achieved for the final version. Validity: The procedure is valid in terms of content and logic. Only three items were added to an already validated instrument (BULIT). A further validity check was not carried out.
