Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the familiality and heritability of binge eating disorder (BED). METHOD: We used a new ACE structural equation model to estimate heritability from a case-control family study of BED conducted in the Boston area. The sample consisted of 150 overweight/obese probands with lif...
