Abstract
To evaluate the frequency of eating disorder features among women receiving treatment for an alcohol problem, 52 female attenders at an alcohol clinic were assessed using a standardized research clinical interview, and the findings compared with data on a general population sample. The results suggest that eating disorder features are overrepresented among women who present for treatment for an alcohol problem. © 1993 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.Keywords
