TL;DR: The five biggest obstacles to validation are addressed: the need for clear delimitation from other psychiatric disorders as well as suicidal behavior, the need to fully explore the developmental course of the disorder, empirically establishing the most appropriate diagnostic criteria, and the potential clinical utility of creating a new disorder.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined positive emotion (PE) and weight-loss behaviors reported during a 2-week period and found that low positive emotion differentiation (PED) may contribute to PE dysregulation in anorexia.

TL;DR: Positive emotion dysregulation may contribute to both onset and maintenance of eating disorders; addressing these issues may provide a promising future direction for improving clinical interventions for eating disorders.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that when women with anorexia exhibit both high levels of both positive and negative emotional instability they are more prone to a variety of weight loss activities.
