Abstract
We conducted a comprehensive scoping review of network research in the field of eating disorders (EDs). Research published between 2016 and 2021 was identified. We identified 61 manuscripts. We found that overvaluation of weight and shape, cognitive concerns around body image, cognitive-affective ED symptoms, and restriction/restraint are core to EDs, in both ED and non-ED samples. Several general psychopathology symptoms are also core to EDs, including affective symptoms, interpersonal problems, feelings of inadequacy, interoceptive awareness, and post-traumatic stress symptoms. Bridge pathways linking EDs to other psychological disorders include affective symptoms, social eating, low self-esteem, physical sensations, and ineffectiveness. Future research should use longitudinal group and idiographic network models, be conducted in non-Western, older, and male samples, and study whether targeting core ED symptoms may improve ED interventions.
