தவிர்க்க வேண்டிய பொதுவான தவறுகள்

• ✕Including behavioral frequency items (binge episodes, purging) in subscale calculations — these are counted separately as frequencies, not means
• ✕Comparing scores to clinical norms instead of community norms, leading to under-identification in community settings
• ✕Ignoring that the Shape Concern subscale is the strongest predictor of eating disorder diagnosis among all subscales
