Informing Eating Disorder Support Through Lived Experience
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An increase in eating disorder hospitalizations was observed amongst Canadian adolescents during COVID-19 public health restrictions. To help understand why this may have occurred, youth with lived experience of an eating disorder share their interpretations of these findings. This article, written by youth patient partners, provides insights into how unpredictable changes to daily routines and health system challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic might have influenced eating disorder hospitalizations. The increase in hospitalizations during the pandemic, combined with our lived experience advisory, underscores gaps in current approaches to supporting young people with eating disorders. We provide suggestions for clinicians, researchers, and policymakers stemming from our patient experiences in hopes that equitable, accessible, and patient-centered support can be prioritized to improve eating disorder-related care. This collaboration establishes a precedent for incorporating the voices of youth patient partners to better translate and mobilize research. These reflections serve as an example of how youth patient partner involvement can inspire future research, healthcare, and policy to advance care for those impacted by eating disorders.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
