Summary
This chapter describes the potential emergence of body image concerns in individuals with ARFID. It also introduces a self-test called the Eating Pathology Symptoms Inventory (EPSI) that readers can take to determine whether body-image concerns are problematic for them. Lastly, it introduces strategies such as behavior experiments and reducing comparison-making to help reduce body-image concerns.
