“…Genetic counseling for psychiatric disorders has been shown to have positive outcomes (Austin & Honer, 2008; Hippman et al, 2016; Inglis, Koehn, McGillivray, Stewart, & Austin, 2015; Moldovan, Pintea, & Austin, 2017; Semaka & Austin, 2019) but is still an underutilized service (Hunter, Hippman, Honer, & Austin, 2010; Moldovan et al, 2019). To shed light on potential explanations for this, previous studies have explored interest in genetic counseling among other populations impacted by mental illnesses (Andrighetti et al, 2016; Austin & Honer, 2008; Austin, Smith, & Honer, 2006; DeLisi & Bertisch, 2006; Erickson et al, 2014; Kalb, Vincent, Herzog, & Austin, 2017; Lyus, 2007; Meiser et al, 2008; Meiser, Mitchell, McGirr, Van Herten, & Schofield, 2005; Quaid, Aschen, Smiley, & Nurnberger, 2001; Quinn et al, 2014; Wilhelm et al, 2009), but none have looked specifically at attitudes of individuals with eating disorders.…”
