Proportion of gender-expansive individuals engaging in disordered eating behaviors among 988 participants in The PRIDE Study

Disordered eating behavior	Any occurrence		Regular occurrence
	%	n	%	n
Dietary restraint	23	227	7.4	73
Objective binge episodes	12.9	127	6.8	67
Self-induced vomiting	1.4	14	0.9	9
Laxative misuse	1.2	12	0.8	8
Excessive exercise	7.4	73	1.2	12

Any occurrence was defined as ≥1 episode in the past 28 days. Regular occurrence of dietary restraint was defined as going for long periods of time (≥8 h) without eating anything to influence shape or weight for ≥13 days over the past 28 days. Regular occurrence of excessive exercise was defined as exercising in a driven or compulsive way as a means of controlling weight, shape or amount of fat, or burning off calories for ≥20 days over the past 28 days. For all other behaviors (objective binge episodes, self-induced vomiting, and laxative misuse), regular occurrence was defined as ≥4 occurrences over the past 28 days. Definitions for any and regular occurrence are consistent with previously published EDE-Q norms studies [20–22, 24, 25, 28–30]
