Use the EAT-26 to help you
determine if you need to speak to a mental
health professional or a physician and get
help for an eating disorder. It will take
you about 2 minutes to complete.
Take the EAT-40. The EAT-40 is the original version of the Eating Attitudes Test. The 40-item version was shortened to 26-items (EAT-26) based on a factor analysis.

The EAT-26 is the most widely used screening measure that may be able to help
you determine if you have an eating disorder that needs professional attention. The EAT-26 is not designed to make a diagnosis of an eating disorder or to
take the place of a professional diagnosis or consultation. Please answer
each question as accurately, honestly, and completely as possible. All of
your results are completely confidential.
