  1. Different lettered superscripts were used to indicate which eating disorder diagnoses differed from each other and which were equal at a statistical level of > 3 for the corrected posterior odds. The groups are coded as follows: AN-R = a, AN-BP = b, BN = c, BED = d, OSFED = e. Letters written italic represent group differences. Non-italic letters represent equality
  2. AN-R, Anorexia nervosa restrictive subtype; AN-BP, anorexia nervosa binge-purge subtype; BN, bulimia nervosa; BED, binge eating disorder; OSFED, other specified feeding and eating disorder; HC, healthy controls
