Figure 1

The prevalence of eating disorder behaviors within demographic sectors in the 1998 and 2008 surveys. a. Prevalence of objective binge eating within demographic sectors in the 1998 and 2008 surveys. b. Prevalence of extreme dieting within demographic sectors in the 1998 and 2008 surveys. c Prevalence of purging within demographic sectors in the 1998 and 2008 surveys. Significant differences within demographic sectors between survey years (e.g. males in 1998 vs. males in 2008) indicate the results of χ2 tests. Significant differences between demographic sectors over time (e.g. males vs. females) indicate the results of the Altman and Bland method to compare odds ratios derived from ordinal logistic regressions. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
