The Bulimia Test—Revised: A psychometric investigation.

Abstract

The Bulimia Test-Revised (BULIT-R; Thelen, Farmer, Wonderlich, & Smith, 1991) is a 28-item questionnaire that shows promise as a sound and valid global self-report measure of the multidimensional bulimia nervosa construct. This study estimated the reliability and construct validity of the BULIT-R. Specifically, the study examined the correspondence between BULIT-R scores and the self-monitored frequency of the bulimic symptoms of binge eating and purging among 39 college-aged women. Results support the internal consistency, temporal stability, and construct validity of the BULIT-R
