“…Although most of the clinically diagnosable cases are likely to be ED–Not Otherwise Specified (ED-NOS), 12 these cases are still likely to benefit substantially from counseling. 26,27 In addition, our findings indicate that a substantial proportion of students have symptoms of eating disorders that are persistent or recurrent.…”

Objective To examine the prevalence, correlates, persistence, and treatment-seeking related to symptoms of eating disorders (EDs) in a random sample of college students. Participants A random sample of students at a large university were recruited for an Internet survey in Fall 2005 and a follow-up survey in Fall 2007. Methods ED symptoms were measured using the SCOFF screen and adjusted for nonresponse using administrative data and a nonresponse survey. Results 2,822 (56%) students completed the baseline survey. Among undergraduates the prevalence of positive screens was 13.5% for women and 3.6% for men. Among students with positive screens, 20% had received past-year mental health treatment. In the follow-up sample (N = 753), ED symptoms at baseline significantly predicted symptoms 2 years later. Conclusions Symptoms of EDs were prevalent and persistent among college students in this study. These findings suggest that brief screens can identify a large number of students with untreated EDs.

“…In order to more effectively prevent disordered eating, it may be necessary to target variables that moderate the relationship between body image dissatisfaction and disordered eating (Schwitzer, et al, 2008). This may serve the purpose of identifying and reaching more students who are at risk.…”

Moderators of the Relationship Between Body Image Dissatisfaction and Disordered Eating

2011

Various affective and personality variables may impact the relationship between body dissatisfaction and disordered eating symptomatology. The current study was a post-hoc analysis examining potential moderators (depression, anxiety, and impulsivity) of this relationship in college women. Four-hundred and seventy-two (472) enrolled college women between the ages of 18 and 55 participated in this study. Moderation analyses indicated that anxiety, depression, and dieting significantly moderated the relationship between body dissatisfaction and disordered eating, whereas impulsivity did not. Findings can be used to generate hypotheses for education and prevention programs on college campuses.

“…Each participating therapist (eligible if they see students at the counseling center at least 25% of the time), consented by study staff, will be asked to consent up to two student clients (eligible if they are 18 years or older and presented to the counseling center with symptoms of either depression or EDs [excluding symptoms of anorexia nervosa]) during each of the three study phases, which is reasonable given the high frequency of depression and EDs in college populations [36, 37]. We note that the therapist will decide if the client meets criteria for depression or EDs (excluding anorexia nervosa).…”

Contemporary Clinical Trials

Mental disorders often emerge in adolescence and young adulthood, and these disorders can have lasting effects on students' health, social functioning, and education. Although evidence-based treatments have been established for many mental disorders, few community therapists use such treatments. What is needed is a practical, economically feasible means of training clinicians to implement evidence-based treatments suitable for widespread use. This cluster randomized trial will randomize 26 college counseling centers to one of two implementation strategies for training counselors to use interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT), an evidence-based treatment for depression and eating disorders: 1) an external expert consultation model comprising a workshop, therapy manual, and expert follow-up consultation (n = 13); or 2) a train-the-trainer model in which a staff member from the counseling center is coached to train other staff members to implement IPT (n = 13). The primary outcome is therapist adherence to IPT, with secondary outcomes of therapist competence in IPT and client outcomes for depression and eating disorders. Therapist and organizational characteristics will be explored as potential moderators and mediators of implementation outcomes. Implementation costs for each of the training methods will also be assessed. The present study involves partnering with college counseling centers to determine the most effective method to implement IPT for depression and eating disorders in these settings. The results of this study will inform future large-scale dissemination of clinical interventions to mental health service providers by providing evidence for the selection of training methods when an agency chooses to adopt new interventions.
