Identifying associations with intentions to use AAS, a precursor to actual use, is critical for prevention efforts. This study aimed to examine whether boys and men with a probable eating disorder or probable muscle dysmorphia have stronger intentions to use AAS, and whether these intentions differ between these conditions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Data from a sample of 1,515 participants from the Study of Boys and Men who had never used AAS were analyzed.

Post-hoc Wald tests revealed that there were no significant differences in intentions to use AAS between those with probable anorexia nervosa\/atypical anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and muscle dysmorphia; however, there were significant differences between these conditions and probable binge-eating disorder.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings from this study add to a growing literature underscoring similar muscularity-oriented features across anorexia nervosa\/atypical anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and muscle dysmorphia.
