Summary

Objective: To study the characteristics of illness awareness, its dimensions and its evolution in relation to clinical, cognitive and psychosocial variables in patients with anorexia nervosa.

Design: observational longitudinal design. Method: First, the process of translating and culturally adapting the Schedule for the Assessment of Insight in Eating Disorders (SAI-ED) to Spanish will be carried out and, over 9 months, patients who are admitted to the Eating Disorders Unit of the Hospital de la Santa Creu I Sant Pau (HSCSP) and the Eating Disorders Unit of the H. Mutua de Terrassa will be offered to participate in the study. Through individual clinical interviews and self-reports, a first sample will be collected to allow the validation study of the scale in the Spanish population.

The sample will include patients with Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa who understand and speak Spanish or Catalan and sign the informed consent for participation. Participants will be recruited consecutively until N=80 is reached.

From a subsample of patients with anorexia nervosa, data related to illness awareness and other clinical, cognitive and psychosocial variables will be collected longitudinally in the 3 and 6 months after.

Finally, a quantitative analysis of the results obtained will be carried out.
