#1 Approximately 75% of eating disorders are undiagnosed (Hart et al., 2011)
#2 Diagnosis is important because it facilitates access to appropriate and effective treatment (Striegel-Moore et al., 2000)

#3 Self-stigma of seeking psychological help may contribute to undiagnosed eating disorders (Griffiths et al., 2014)
#4 Males may suffer disproportionately from self-stigma of seeking psychological help due to masculinity (Griffiths et al., 2015; Smiler, 2006)

Methods – statistical analyses
#1 Hierarchical binary logistic regression
#2 Outcome: Undiagnosed vs. diagnosed
#3 Predictors: Demographic variables (sex, employment, etc.), psychiatric variables (eating disorder symptoms, duration of illness, etc.), psychosocial variables (self-stigma of seeking help, self-esteem, etc.)

#1 Men were four times more likely to be undiagnosed than womenOR = 4.04 (95% CI: 1.43, 11.43), p = .009
#2 Self-stigma of seeking psychological help predicted a greater probability of being undiagnosedOR = 1.57 (95% CI: 1.07, 2.30), p = .022

#1 Findings consistent with the view that males with eating disorders are more reluctant to seek treatment and more likely to be undiagnosed
#2 Self-stigma of seeking psychological help may be responsible, to some extent, for this reluctance
Discussion
![Page 17: Self-stigma of Seeking Help and Being Male Predict an Increased Likelihood of Having an Undiagnosed Eating Disorder](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f0e5d41a28abd70c8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
#3 Conflict between traditional masculine gender roles and the act of reaching out for help may explain why self-stigma of seeking psychological help has a stronger influence on males
#4 Addressing males’ negative beliefs about seeking treatment is important for early intervention initiatives
Discussion
![Page 18: Self-stigma of Seeking Help and Being Male Predict an Increased Likelihood of Having an Undiagnosed Eating Disorder](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f0e5d41a28abd70c8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
#1 Cross-sectional design
#2 The experience of treatment may reduce self-stigma about seeking treatment
#3 Relatively few males recruited
Discussion - limitations
![Page 19: Self-stigma of Seeking Help and Being Male Predict an Increased Likelihood of Having an Undiagnosed Eating Disorder](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f0e5d41a28abd70c8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
#4 Certain subgroups of sufferers may have been underrepresented
#5 Factors likely to have influenced diagnosis, such as access to services, were not examined
#6 Eating disorders were self-reported and not confirmed with interview assessments
#4 Addressing males’ negative beliefs about seeking treatment is important for early intervention initiatives
Discussion - limitations
![Page 20: Self-stigma of Seeking Help and Being Male Predict an Increased Likelihood of Having an Undiagnosed Eating Disorder](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f0e5d41a28abd70c8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Investigate men with muscle dysmorphia and men who use steroids
Muscle dysmorphia sufferers tend to be more traditionally ‘masculine’ than men with anorexia nervosa and ‘healthy’ control men (Kanayama et al., 2006; Murray et al., 2013)
Discussion – future research
![Page 21: Self-stigma of Seeking Help and Being Male Predict an Increased Likelihood of Having an Undiagnosed Eating Disorder](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f0e5d41a28abd70c8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
#1 Self-stigma of seeking psychological help may be a salient barrier to eating disorder diagnosis and treatment, particularly for males
Conclusion
