General and Symptom‐Specific Illness Duration and Course as Predictors of Symptom Severity in Anorexia Nervosa

Findings highlight the clinical utility of assessing symptom-specific chronicity and of interrupting eating disorder symptoms in treatment, given the impact of continuous symptom expression.
