TAS-DIF, Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS) Difficulties Identifying Feelings subscale; EDI-DT, Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI) Drive for Thinness subscale; DERS, Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale; EDI-BD, EDI Body Dissatisfaction subscale; EDI-B, EDI Bulimia subscale; TAS-DDF, TAS Difficulty Defining Feelings subscale; SPIN, Social Phobia Inventory; RMET, Reading the Mind in the Eyes Task; rs, structure coefficient; rs2, squared structure coefficients; 95% CI, 95% Confidence Interval of Centroid; Bold typeface = standardized structure coefficient > 0.17. Negative centroids indicate sign reversal of structure coefficients for that group. Variables are ordered by the absolute value of the standardized rs.
