The Stirling Eating Disorder Scales (SEDS) provides a theoretically robust cognitive and behavioural measure of both anorexia and bulimia. It was developed to assess four core cognitive - emotional factors:
-
External control
-
Low assertiveness
-
Low self-esteem
-
Self directed hostility
The package features additional scales to measure anorexic and bulimic dietary cognitions and behaviours and can be used as a rapid screener or for profiling patients and treatment on a tranquil.
There is an easy to use manual, which gives a brief report to the theoretical background of the SEDS as well as administration and scoring instructions.
Also included are reliability and validity information as well as data obtained from use of defined clinical groups. As such it is more cost effective than other products in the market today.
