| Abstract |
Aim: To evaluate different types and degrees of malnutrition over time in a sample of children diagnosed with Infantile Anorexia (IA), based on the DC:0-3R criteria, and recently defined by DSM-5 as the first subtype of Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), and to investigate the relationship between children's severity of malnutrition and emotional/behavioral development, and mothers' long-term psychopathological symptoms. Methods: A total of 113 children (58 boys, 55 girls), originally diagnosed with IA, and their mothers, were evaluated at four assessment points at the children's mean age of 2, 5, 7, and 11 years. Several measures were used to assess the children's growth and level of malnutrition, mothers' psychopathological symptoms and eating attitudes, as well as their children's emotional/behavioral functioning. Results: A steady improvement in the severity of malnutrition over time emerged, but 73% of children still had ongoing mild to moderate to severe malnutrition at 11 years of age. Moreover, the children showed increasing internalizing and externalizing emotional/behavioral problems, and their mothers' psychopathological symptoms and eating problems worsened as well over time. At 11 years of age, the girls' emotional/behavioral problems and their mothers' psychopathology and disturbed eating attitudes were more severe than that of the boys and their mothers. Finally, during the last assessment, significant associations between the mothers' psychopathology and disturbed eating attitudes, the severity of the children's malnutrition, and their emotional/behavioral problems emerged. Discussion: Our longitudinal study points out that the developmental course of children, originally diagnosed with IA and who received limited psychosocial treatment, is characterized by an enduring risk of malnutrition and increasing psychopathological symptoms in both, the children and their mothers, up to the sensitive period of pre-puberty. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 August 2018.
All research outputs
#16,061,913
of 23,842,189 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Psychology
#19,803
of 31,799 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#214,573
of 336,881 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Psychology
#546
of 755 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,842,189 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 31,799 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.7. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 336,881 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 755 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
