Psychometric Evaluation and Clinical Norms of a Dutch Version of the Body Uneasiness Test Among Individuals With Self-Reported Eating Disorder Pathology.
Article in Journal of clinical psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe present study evaluates the psychometric properties and provides normative data for the Dutch Body Uneasiness Test. The instrument was administered to a clinical sample (N = 448) and a community-based sample (N = 223). The Body Uneasiness Test was translated and back-translated.
methodsInternal consistency, item-rest correlation, test-retest reliability, and concurrent validity were assessed. The Body Shape Questionnaire and the Eating Disorder Examination-Shape concern subscale were used as reference measures. To establish criterion validity, a receiver-operating-characteristic curve-analysis was performed using both groups as reference groups. Confirmatory factor analysis tested five- and eight-factor structures. Norms (population-based T-scores and percentile scores) were established.
resultsThe psychometric properties were good, with the Body Uneasiness Test distinguishing well between individuals with and without eating disorder pathology (area-under-the-curve value = 0.77-0.88). The Body Uneasiness Test-A had a five-factor structure, and the Body Uneasiness Test-B had an eight-factor structure. In accordance with other samples, clinical cut-off for the Body Uneasiness Test A was 1.2.
conclusionsThese results suggested that the Dutch Body Uneasiness Test is a useful tool for screening various aspects of body image in individuals with eating disorder pathology in research and in clinical practice.
