Abstract
Several cognitive behavioral writers have described cognitions regardi ng food, eating, and body weight as central to the psychopathology of anorexia and bulimia. However, only preliminary efforts have been unde rtaken to develop valid and reliable assessment methodologies for thes e cognitions. This paper reviews the current status of self-report que stionnaires, thought-sampling procedures, and methods from cognitive p sychology as applied to the assessment of eating disorder cognitions.
