Summary

The goal of this observational study is to assess the efficacy of the Eating Disorder Proxy Screening Tool for General Practitioner (ED-PSTGP) as a tool for the early detection of eating disorders (EDs) in General Practice (GP). The ED-PSTGP is a hetero-evaluative questionnaire that investigates the presence of suspected eating disorder symptoms among the family members of the person completing the questionnaire. The study will involve adult patients over 18 years old enrolled in a general practice and their family members aged 16 years or older.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Can the ED-PSTGP questionnaire effectively identify patients with potential eating disorders through responses from a family member?
* How effective is the ED-PSTGP questionnaire in general practice as an early detection tool for eating disorders?

Participants will:

* Be asked by their General Practitioner (GP) to complete the ED-PSTGP questionnaire.
* If a positive result is found, invite the potentially affected family member to complete additional screening questionnaires online.

The potentially affected family member will be offered a teleconsultation with specialists and encouraged to contact the nearest reference center for ED treatment to further investigate potential eating disorders.
