Abstract
Few studies have examined disparities in treatment outcome for Hispanic women with eating disorders (EDs). To address this, Hispanic and non-Hispanic women were compared on ED and comorbid psychopathology in a partial hospital program through treatment discharge. Results supported no significant differences in treatment outcome between Hispanic and non-Hispanic women.
