Table 5.
Multinomial logistic regression evaluating the association between FI and ED diagnosis/risk category, controlling for demographics.
Independent variable | At risk for an ED | AN | Clinical/subclinical BN | Clinical/subclinical BED | PD | UFED | ARFID | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
FI | OR | b | OR | b | OR | b | OR | b | OR | b | OR | b | OR | b |
1.59 | 0.5 | 2.18 | 0.8 | 2.79 | 1.0 | 2.46 | 0.9 | 2.07 | 0.7 | 2.03 | 0.7 | 2.06 | 0.7 |
Note: Analyses adjusted for age, gender, race, income, and ethnicity. Abbreviations: ED = eating disorder; FI = food insecurity; AN = anorexia nervosa; BN = subclinical/clinical bulimia nervosa; BED = subclinical/clinical binge eating disorder; PD = purging disorder; UFED = unspecified feeding or eating disorder; ARFID = avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder.
