Sexual and Gender Minority Individuals Report Higher Rates of Abuse and More Severe Eating Disorder Symptoms Than Cisgender Heterosexual Individuals At Admission to Eating Disorder Treatment

About the Course

Past research has shown differences between the rates of eating disorders between two groups—sexual/gender minority individuals and cisgender heterosexual individuals. This quantitative research study aims to test hypotheses regarding presenting rates of trauma/abuse between the two groups, the severity of eating disorder symptoms between the two groups, and response to eating disorder treatment between the two groups.

This course is based on the reading-based online, Sexual and Gender Minority Individuals Report Higher Rates of Abuse and More Severe Eating Disorder Symptoms Than Cisgender Heterosexual Individuals at Admission to Eating Disorder Treatment created by Janell L. Mensinger, PhD. et al. in 2020.
