Cluster-analytic studies of bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder (BED) have yielded 2 subtypes (pure dietary and mixed dietary-negative affect). The authors aimed to (a) replicate the subtyping with BED, (b) consider alternative approaches to subtyping, and (c) test the stability in individual differences in the subtyping. Cluster analyses of 101 patients revealed tt dietary-negative affect subtype (33%) and a pure dietary subtype (67%). The dietary-negative affect subtype was characterized by greater eating-related psychopathology and psychological disturbance. Cluster analysis produced different results from alternative subtyping approaches (by major depression or by binge eating frequency). Cluster-analytic subtyping of data at 2 time points 4 weeks apart for a subset of 73 patients demonstrated significant consistency (kappa = .55). Findings suggest that moderate dieting is characteristic of BED and that affective disturbances occur in a subset of cases that represent a more disturbed variant. The subtypes may represent reasonably stable individual differences.
