| Abstract: | 41 women with bulimia nervosa completed a brief intervention that was designed to promote symptom management. Cutoff scores for the determination of reliable and clinically significant change were calculated for several psychometric instruments that are commonly used as outcome measures in the field of eating disorders. Using these statistical procedures to assess therapeutic change, this study documents the diversity of outcomes that individuals reported following their participation in the intervention. As expected, there was a differential reporting of clinically significant change in favor of specific eating psychopathology relative to personality features and associated psychopathology.
