We expanded on previous research by exploring a broader range of ED symptoms, including orthorexia (ON) and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). Using network analysis, we analysed data from 308 adult women (18 years or older) who completed muscularity, disordered eating, and sociodemographic assessments. Our findings revealed five interconnected symptom communities reflecting traditional ED symptoms, such as eating concerns and shape and weight overvaluation. Notably, muscularity concerns emerged as a distinct community, emphasising their relevance to ED symptoms in women. Additionally, we identified selective eating tendencies and compulsive healthy eating. Highly central symptoms were rumination about healthy eating, fear and guilt over unhealthy eating, body‐related embarrassment, and muscularity concerns (wishing to be heavier, wishing for heavier arms). These results suggest that muscularity concerns could constitute a uniquely identifiable and central diagnostic target for body image concerns and disordered eating in women.","lang":"eng"}],"page":"864-878","keyword":["body dysmorphia","drive for muscularity","eating disorders","psychotherapy","thinness ideal"],"publisher":"Wiley","type":"scientific_journal_article","doi":"10.1002/erv.3192","date_updated":"2026-03-27T08:25:59Z","quality_controlled":"1","issue":"5"},{"title":"How evaluative pairings improve body dissatisfaction in adult women: evidence from a randomized-controlled online study","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2050-2974"]},"isi":"1","intvolume":"        12","author":[{"first_name":"Katharina","full_name":"Dumstorf, Katharina","last_name":"Dumstorf"},{"full_name":"Halbeisen, Georg","last_name":"Halbeisen","id":"85780","first_name":"Georg","orcid":"0000-0002-9529-2215"},{"full_name":"Paslakis, Georgios","last_name":"Paslakis","first_name":"Georgios"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_created":"2026-03-25T13:36:06Z","volume":12,"pmid":"1","publication_status":"published","place":"London","citation":{"van":"Dumstorf K, Halbeisen G, Paslakis G.

This study investigated the effect on current body dissatisfaction levels of a newly developed evaluative conditioning procedure that paired self-similar and self-dissimilar images of bodies with positive and neutral affective images, respectively. We hypothesized that learning the contingency that self-similar bodies predict positive affectivity is one process that could aid in explaining how these procedures function.\r\nMethods\r\nAdult women without disordered eating pathology participated in an online experiment with random assignment to an intervention or a control condition. All participants initially rated body images in self-similarity and were subsequently asked to categorize positive and neutral images by valence as quickly and accurately as possible. In the intervention condition, self-similar bodies systematically preceded positive images, and self-dissimilar images preceded neutral images, creating a similar body → positive contingency. Pairings in the control condition were unsystematic such that no contingency was present. We measured categorization latencies and accuracies to infer contingency learning as well as current body dissatisfaction immediately before and after exposure to the pairings. All participants further completed measures of trait body image concerns and disordered eating psychopathology at baseline, which we examined as moderators of an expected relation between condition assignment, contingency learning, and body dissatisfaction improvements.\r\nResults\r\nWe analyzed data from N = 173 women fulfilling the inclusion criteria. Moderated mediation analyses showed that assignment to the intervention (vs. control) condition predicted increased similar body → positive contingency learning, which in turn predicted improved body dissatisfaction post-intervention, but only among women with higher pre-existing trait body image concerns or disordered eating levels.\r\nConclusions\r\nThe findings point toward the relevancy of further exploring the utility of pairing procedures. Similar body → positive contingency learning predicted improved body dissatisfaction in individuals with normatively high body image concerns, which suggests pairing procedures could help inform future research on reducing body dissatisfaction.","lang":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"DEP1500"}],"year":"2024","user_id":"83781","status":"public"},{"article_number":"15","_id":"13577","publication":"Borderline Personality Disorder and Emotion Dysregulation","title":"A second chance for first impressions: evidence for altered impression updating in borderline personality disorder","citation":{"havard":"K.

We hypothesized that increased impression updating could stem from reduced attitude contextualization, i.e., a process in which impression-disconfirming information is linked to contextual cues.\r\nMethods\r\nIndividuals diagnosed with BPD and controls (recruited online, with unknown diagnostic status) completed an impression formation paradigm. They first learned about the positive or negative behaviors of others in one Context A (e.g., Person 1 is helpful), followed by learning about behaviors of the opposite valence in a second Context B (Person 1 is rude). We also manipulated between participants whether the observed behaviors were directed toward the study participants (self-relevant) or, more generally, at other people (other-relevant). The contexts were marked by differently-colored backgrounds (e.g., yellow vs. blue), to avoid influences of prior knowledge or experiences. After exposure to information in both contexts, participants rated their impressions of the persons in Context A, Context B, and, crucially, a previously unknown Context C (white background). We examined whether the initial or an updated impression (re-)emerged in Context C.\r\nResults\r\nInitial impressions remained stable and dominated the ratings of controls across contexts A, B, and C for both self-relevant and other-relevant behaviors, consistent with contextualizing impression-disconfirming information. As expected, however, individuals with BPD only showed updated impression ratings in Context C for self-relevant behaviors, consistent with the assumed reduced tendency to contextualize impression-disconfirming self-relevant information. Further exploratory analyses suggest that more severe BPD symptoms predicted more pronounced impression updating in the self-relevant condition.\r\nConclusions\r\nThe findings help to illuminate the mechanisms underlying interpersonal problems in individuals with BPD. People with BPD are not just more inclined to discard positive first impressions but to re-evaluate disliked others when they behave positively, contributing to the volatility of interactions with others. Contextualization has known and modifiable antecedents, and the study may thus provide potential targets for therapeutic intervention. Future studies will need to replicate the findings with specified controls."}],"keyword":["Borderline personality disorder","Interpersonal problems","Social cognition","Belief updating","Renewal","Impression formation","Attitudes","Psychotherapy"],"status":"public","year":"2024","user_id":"83781","department":[{"_id":"DEP1500"}],"doi":"10.1186/s40479-024-00259-y","date_updated":"2026-03-27T09:00:25Z","quality_controlled":"1","external_id":{"pmid":["39026374"],"isi":["001271707800001"]},"issue":"1","publisher":"BioMed Central","type":"scientific_journal_article"},{"publication":"Journal of Psychiatric Research","_id":"13616","publication_status":"published","volume":180,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_created":"2026-03-25T14:37:24Z","citation":{"ieee":"E.

Further research is required regarding the impact of contingency learning on the evaluation of other bodies, and the selection of other bodies for body-related social comparison processes.","lang":"eng"}],"keyword":["Evaluative conditioning","Body image","Eating disorders","Contingency learning","Psychotherapy"],"publisher":"Elsevier BV","type":"scientific_journal_article","quality_controlled":"1","doi":"10.1016/j.jpsychires.2024.11.012","date_updated":"2026-03-25T15:16:51Z"},{"title":"Acute Activity Urges Predict Lower Early Weight Gain During Inpatient Treatment for Anorexia Nervosa","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0276-3478","1098-108X"]},"author":[{"first_name":"Georg","last_name":"Halbeisen","id":"85780","full_name":"Halbeisen, Georg","orcid":"0000-0002-9529-2215"},{"full_name":"Amin, Lina","last_name":"Amin","first_name":"Lina"},{"first_name":"Karsten","full_name":"Braks, Karsten","last_name":"Braks"},{"first_name":"Thomas J.","last_name":"Huber","full_name":"Huber, Thomas J."},{"full_name":"Paslakis, Georgios","last_name":"Paslakis","first_name":"Georgios"}],"intvolume":"        57","volume":57,"publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_created":"2026-03-25T14:39:29Z","citation":{"short":"G.

Activity urges, that is, a motivational state to engage in activity, have been suspected to delay early weight gain, but their prognostic role remains barely explored. Here, we investigated whether acute (state‐like) activity urges at treatment onset would predict within‐person weight gain in patients with AN during the initial 2 weeks of inpatient treatment. Adults with AN from an inpatient unit (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 53) completed an activity urges measure at treatment onset, and weight changes were monitored for the duration of their treatment. Regression analyses, controlling for admission body mass index and other patient variables (i.e., patient age and AN subtype), found that higher state activity urges were associated with lower initial weight gain. Mediation analyses showed that differences in early weight changes further linked higher activity urges at admission to lower discharge weights. An activity urge cutoff value of 2.76 for distinguishing between cases with optimal and suboptimal initial weight gain is proposed. We discuss potential mechanisms of the link between activity urges and early weight gain and the implications of activity urges as a prognostic factor for improving weight restoration during AN treatment.","lang":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"DEP1500"}],"year":"2024","user_id":"83781","status":"public"},{"type":"scientific_journal_article","publisher":"Wiley","issue":"2","doi":"10.1111/obr.13851","date_updated":"2026-03-25T15:12:23Z","quality_controlled":"1","user_id":"83781","year":"2024","department":[{"_id":"DEP1500"}],"status":"public","keyword":["bariatric surgery","diverse populations","food addiction","gender differences","obesity","psychotherapy","weight loss"],"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Food addiction (FA) could be a potential prognostic factor of weight loss intervention outcomes.

Here, we developed and validated the State Urge to be Physically Active-Questionnaire (SUPA-Q). MethodsAfter developing and piloting the items, N = 126 patients with EDs (mostly anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa) took part in our mixed-longitudinal validation study with one primary assessment for all patients and a secondary assessment for a subsample of patients. Cronbach's & alpha; and split-half-methods served as measures of consistency and reliability. Correlations with other questionnaires were used to determine convergent and divergent validity, and confirmatory factor analysis was used for investigating factorial validity. We used paired-samples t-tests for repeated assessments to investigate change sensitivity. ResultsWe found the SUPA-Q to be highly consistent, and reliable and to demonstrate convergent, divergent, and factorial validity. The comparison of SUPA-Q scores from repeated assessments within a subsample of patients demonstrated the questionnaire's change sensitivity, Cohen's d = 0.48. Moreover, an increase in SUPA-Q scores was associated with a less positive mood, more anxiety, more body dissatisfaction, more tenseness, less feelings of control, and more stress. DiscussionThe newly developed SUPA-Q may help to accentuate the necessity to evaluate and address the acute urge to engage in physical activity in patients with EDs in clinical practice and ultimately support tailoring treatments to patients' unique symptom patterns.

At the same time, differences between men and women with EDs remain poorly explored. MethodsIn this study, we compared 104 men to 104 diagnosis-matched women with EDs regarding sociodemographic and clinical features. Using latent class mixture modelling, we identified four distinct patient subgroups based on their sociodemographic features. ResultsMen with EDs had significantly higher odds than women to belong to a \"single-childfree-working\" class. Moreover, while there were few overall differences in ED-related symptoms and general psychopathology between men and women, single-childfree-working men with EDs presented with higher general psychopathology symptoms than men in the other classes.
