, a) Provide and differentiate the diagnostic criteria and hallmark
features of Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa and Binge-eating
disorder (20)


Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge-Eating Disorder are
three distinct eating disorders, each with unique diagnostic criteria
and hallmark features. Below is a detailed comparison:
Anorexia Nervosa (AN)
Diagnostic Criteria:
1. Restriction of Energy Intake: Leading to significantly low
body weight in the context of age, sex, developmental
trajectory, and physical health.
2. Intense Fear of Gaining Weight: Or becoming fat, even
though underweight.
3. Disturbance in Self-Perceived Weight or Shape: Undue
influence of body weight or shape on self-evaluation, or denial
of the seriousness of the current low body weight.
Hallmark Features:
• Severe Weight Loss: Individuals with AN typically maintain a
body weight that is below the minimally normal or expected
weight.
• Amenorrhea: Absence of menstruation in females (though
this criterion has been removed in DSM-5, it remains a
common feature).
• Preoccupation with Food: Despite the restriction, there is
often an obsession with food, recipes, or cooking.
• Distorted Body Image: A persistent lack of recognition of the
seriousness of the low body weight.
