Note: ED = eating disorder; AED = active eating disorder; PRED = partially recovered eating disorder; FRED = fully recovered eating disorder; HC = healthy controls. Means and standard deviations are presented for interviewer ratings of functioning in each domain, along with the number of participants within each eating disorder status group that provided data for each psychosocial domain. Ratings reflect average ratings across past 3 months, with lower numbers reflecting better psychosocial functioning. Pairwise comparisons listed were significant at least at p<.05.
