| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Japan, a prospective cohort epidemiological survey was conducted for university students who are of the age which is susceptible to anorexia nervosa. The survey, using unsigned questionnaires, suggested that 2.2% of males and 4.4% of females have disordered eating behavior (N=4552), which was contradictory to the results of the interview survey. Therefore it is suggested that screenings for disordered eating behavior among university students should include objective indicators obtained by medical examination as well as questionnaires. In addition, among the autism spectrum characteristics measured by AQ, the associations between disordered eating behavior and two autism spectrum characteristics regarding attention to detail and communication were observed. Deeper study should be conducted which considers the combination with other cognitive batteries.
