- Brief 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.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Average Sensory Processing Scale Inventory (SPSI) scores between the two groups Inclusion Comparison of average Sensory Processing Scale Inventory (SPSI) scores between the two groups This questionnaire focuses on sensoriality. It allows the definition of over or under-reactive sensory profiles. It is made of two lists (list #1 : 73 items ; list #2 : 29 items).
The SPSI questionnaire is in English. For this reason, a group of experts from La Maison de Solenn met to translate it into French being as faithful as possible to the original questionnaire. Each checklist has its own score, the result is the sum of the points obtained (one point for YES, zero points for NO) (6).
Two groups will be formed: a group with eating disorders and a control group. The questionnaire will be answered only once and will be proposed to the participant at the end of a consultation at the Maison de Solenn for his usual follow-up or during a hospitalization (full time hospitalization or in day hospital).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Screening for pathologies known to be associated with a sensory disorder Inclusion Screening questionnaires for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) will be distributed in order to identify disorders associated with a particular sensory profile. This will allow statistical results to be refined by performing multivariate analyses.
Search for a link between the eating disorders severity and sensory disorders Inclusion The EAT 26 questionnaire is used to measure the severity of an eating disorder. It will be proposed only to the participants of the eating disorder group.
This measure of severity will assess whether there is a relationship between the severity of the ED and the severity of the sensory disorders.
