Eating disorders are often triggered by transitional events in a person's life. Things like puberty, going to college, having a baby or post partem can be associated with higher eating disorder behaviors and triggers. Transitioning out of independent living or into a higher level of care can be that same type of transitional experience for some people.

Here's Erin's faculty page and a bunch of her research!
