ObjectiveThe goal of this study was to follow up on reports that obsessive‐compulsive characteristics, which are commonly elevated in bulimia nervosa (BN), may also be elevated in individuals who have recovered from BN (BN‐R).MethodSelf‐ratings on the Maudsley Obsessional‐Compulsive Inventory (MOCI), the Restraint Scale (a measure of dieting behavior related to weight concerns), and questionnaires reflecting eating disorder‐related symptoms were evaluated for women who met criteria for BN (n= 25) or BN‐R (n= 21) and were free of obsessive‐compulsive disorder, and for healthy female controls (n= 28).ResultsMOCI scores for the BN‐R group (5.5 ± 5.4) were similar to those for the BN group (5.4 ± 4.4) and were significantly elevated (p< 0.05,p< 0.02, respectively) in comparison to controls (2.5 ± 1.9). Of note, MOCI scores for the BN‐R group were significantly correlated with scores on the Restraint Scale (r= 0.60,p< 0.02).ConclusionFurther studies are needed to assess the relationship between elevated obsessive‐compulsive characteristics and eating patterns in individuals recovered from BN. © 2007 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
