The questionnaire has been considered an adequate measure of eating related psychopathology, including with overweight samples. EDEQ also assesses frequencies of eating disordered behaviors in terms of the number of episodes in the past four weeks (6 items not contributing to scores).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0924933800120292_abst0002\" sec-type=\"other\"><jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title><jats:p>To investigate reliability and factorial structure of the EDEQ in a large sample of Portuguese overweight women.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0924933800120292_abst0003\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The EDEQ was administered to an outpatient sample of 276 women (Mean age = 43.85 \u00b1 11.89; Mean BMI = 32.82 Kg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> \u00b1 5.43) attending a weight loss treatment consultation in a public medical center.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0924933800120292_abst0004\" sec-type=\"results\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The EDEQ Cronbach a was .88.
