Note. We examined the impact of emotions, cognitions, and ED behaviors on contemporaneous feeling fat while controlling for diagnostic status (i.e., AN vs. other ED). In Model 1, we examined the impact of emotions, cognitions, and ED behaviors on concurrent feeling fat. In Model 2, we examined the temporal impact of emotions, cognitions, and ED behaviors on feeling fat at the next meal.
