Abstract
:

Compulsive exercise (CE) has been proposed as one of the maladaptive elements that might concur to developing and maintaining an eating disorder (ED), even if no conclusive consensus is yet available. This study evaluates the psychometric properties of the Compulsive Exercise Test (CET), the questionnaire most frequently discussed in the literature. Our second aim is to evaluate the relationships between CE, quality of life, and different body concerns in a group of individuals.
