Psychometric properties of the Diabetes Eating Problem Survey–Revised among Dutch adults with type 1 diabetes and implications for clinical use

Abstract Aims Disordered eating behaviour (DEB) in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) can be screened with the Diabetes Eating Problem Survey–Revised (DEPS‐R). This study aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of the DEPS‐R among Dutch adults with T1D and to explore the individual items alongside the standard cut‐off score of ≥20 for clinical use. Methods The construct validity of the DEPS‐R was assessed with an exploratory factor analysis, through principal axis factoring and with Spearman correlations between clinical variables and the DEPS‐R. Backward logistic regression identified... Mehr ...
