Read the specific descriptions without a health label.
A complete original guide to this part of eating and body-related experience, with category records, uncertainties and independent support.
Choose whether each original statement describes your past four weeks, partly describes them or does not describe them. Cannot judge, no relevant experience and prefer not to answer remain separate. The twenty choices form five records of four statements. Six category counts in each record add to four, with the original statements and selected labels retained. Labels have no points, and counts are neither symptoms nor severity or frequency. There is no total, mean, cutoff, health tier or eating-disorder result.
A body thought is not a body assessment
This record concerns judging your worth through appearance, body thoughts interrupting an activity, body-related distress and troubling comparisons. It asks what you recall experiencing, not what your body looks like. The form uses no photograph, measurement or assessment by another person. A chosen category cannot establish whether your view is accurate, why a thought arose or what anyone else sees.
Specific thoughts can differ within one record
You might recognise comparison with someone else but not a statement about your worth. Someone else may feel distress while preferring not to describe any particular feature. Four category counts cannot preserve every circumstance, so the individual choices remain visible. No complete positive body opinion is required, and uncertainty is not a failure to understand yourself.
Separate these experiences from face and styling reflections
The existing face self-image and body-outline activities ask different questions about familiar views, care, photographs and visual lines. They do not supply answers about eating, restriction or attempts to undo eating. A person may enjoy a styling choice while experiencing food-related distress. Neither activity is a reverse score or a way to confirm or cancel this record.
No need to inspect or compare again
Nothing here asks you to find a mirror, inspect a feature, weigh yourself or compare with another body. Those activities are not evidence needed to finish. Use an existing recollection, choose an uncertainty category or stop. A public explanation is equally available when every answer is withheld.
You may name a concern without supplying a story
If you choose to talk with a professional, you can mention that body-related thoughts are troubling without showing a score, describing your appearance or supplying private examples to this website. This reading does not decide the cause or the type of support. Reading alone or leaving the topic for now is also an available outcome.
How the record works
Choose whether each original statement describes your past four weeks, partly describes them or does not describe them. Cannot judge, no relevant experience and prefer not to answer remain separate. The twenty choices form five records of four statements. Six category counts in each record add to four, with the original statements and selected labels retained. Labels have no points, and counts are neither symptoms nor severity or frequency. There is no total, mean, cutoff, health tier or eating-disorder result.
Origin, limits and independent support
- FermatMind authored these twenty statements and five complete readings. They are not EAT-26, SCOFF, a diagnostic checklist or a validated translation of another instrument. Reliability, validity, norms and English–Chinese equivalence have not been established. The record cannot assess nutrition, weight, medical stability or an eating disorder. A low count cannot establish health, and a fitting answer cannot establish a condition. The public health source supplies background, not an item bank or endorsement.
- If eating or body concerns trouble you, you can seek support from a qualified health professional without finishing this form, a particular count or a particular appearance. This exercise prescribes no restriction, compensation, body checking, weighing, food diary or change to food or activity. It cannot decide urgency or explain physical symptoms. For immediate danger or severe current symptoms, seek local emergency medical help rather than continue the questionnaire.
