Note. Subscripts denote significant differences at the p<.05 level compared with a=Black participants, b=Hispanic participants, c=White participants. Omitted subscripts indicate nonsignificant differences. Partial eta squared (ηp2) values are considered small at .01, medium at .06, and large at .14 (Cohen, 1988). OBE, SBE, and OOE variables were square root-transformed to meet assumptions of normality. However, we report non-transformed means here to facilitate interpretation. BMI=Body Mass Index; OBE=Objective bulimic episode; SBE=Subjective bulimic episode; OOE=Objective overeating episode; EDE=Eating Disorder Examination; BDI=Beck Depression Inventory; BED=Binge eating disorder.
