The outcome of 43 bulimia patients was assessed 14 to 72 months after presenting for treatment. Outcome was assessed in four ways: clinical interview, self-completion of a questionnaire, self-rating, and the Eating Visual Analogue (EVA). The study suggests that despite the inherent problems associated with the different methods of assessment, 29% -42 % of patients could be considered “cured.” Only commencement of binge eating before 16 years was indicative of a good outcome.
