Notes. Clinical and psychometric measures were compared using two-tailed Welch’s t-tests. Age and education are reported in years. P-values are adjusted for multiple comparisons using the Holm−Bonferroni procedure (Holm, 1979). BMI body mass index, BDI Beck Depression Inventory (maximum score: 63, clinically meaningful cut-off: 18), EDE-Q Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire score (maximum total score: 6), TP Time point, WMT Viennese Matrices Test, WST Multiple Choice Vocabulary Test.
Missing data: ^an = 1, ^bn = 3, ^cn = 4, ^dn = 2, ^en = 5.
