Summary

This study offers to determine whether adolescent patients with a restrictive eating disorder have variations in their sensoriality compared to a control group.

Detailed description

Eating disorders are a frequent reason for consultation in pediatrics at all ages. When they are small, children may have an orality disorder. There are multiple potential causes for this disorder: psychogenic, oropraxic but also sensory. The treatment is then adapted to the patient, with, among other things, an orientation towards professionals trained in sensory disorders. As they grow up, adolescents are particularly at risk of developing eating disorders, which are pathologies that correspond to a biopsychosocial model of understanding that includes psychogenetic, neuroendocrine and immune factors. Despite major advances in the understanding of this disease, the sensory dimension for these patients is still little studied and is not taken into account in the treatment proposed to adolescents suffering from eating disorders.

Conditions

• Eating Disorders in Adolescence
• Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Sensory Processing Scale Inventory (SPSI)	The Sensory Processing Scale Inventory (SPSI) is the main questionnaire. It allows to define over and under sensitive profiles. It's a self-administrated questionnaire
OTHER	Autism Spectrum Screening Quotient (ASSQ)	The ASSQ allows to detect autism spectrum disorders (ASD). This quotient is proposed to the group because the investigators know that ASD are often correlated with sensory integration disorders. It's answered by the participant's parents.
OTHER	GAD 7	The GAD7 questionnaire allows to detect anxiety disorder. This questionnaire is proposed to the group because the investigators know that anxiety disorders are often correlated with sensory integration disorders. It's a self-administrated questionnaire.
OTHER	Conners abridged	The Conners abridged questionnaire allows to detect attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This questionnaire is proposed to the group because the investigators know that ADHD are often correlated with sensory integration disorders. The questionnaire is answered by the participant's parents.
OTHER	EAT 26	The EAT 26 questionnaire allows to detect anorexia nervosa. It is proposed to the patient with an eating disorder to establish the level of severity of their disease. It's a self-administrated questionnaire.
