The Eating Pathology Symptoms Inventory (EPSI) assesses eight subscales, including muscle building, excessive exercise, body dissatisfaction, binge eating, cognitive restraint, purging, restricting, and negative attitudes toward obesity. This study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of the Farsi version of the EPSI (F-EPSI) among Iranian college men and women. The university students filled out the EPSI and other self-report assessments of eating pathology and related impairment. The results provide support for the F-EPSI's 8-factor structure among Iranian university students. The F-EPSI was found to be comparable across genders. Convergent validity as well as internal consistency of the F-EPSI were supported. Furthermore, this study supports the reliability of the F-EPSI subscales over time.
