Abstrakt: Eating disorders are serious psychiatric illnesses associated with large amounts of suffering, high morbidity, and high mortality rates, signifying a clear need for rapid advancements in the underlying science. Relative to other fields of clinical psychological science, the eating disorder field is new. However, despite the fields' late beginnings, there is growing science in several important areas. The current paper discusses the current literature in three primary areas of importance: (a) diversity and inclusion, (b) systemic and social factors, and (c) treatment personalization. We discuss how these areas have huge potential to push both eating disorder and clinical psychological science in general forward, to improve our underlying understanding of psychological illness, and to enhance treatment access and effectiveness. We call for more research in these areas and end with our vision for the field for the next decade, including areas in need of significant future research.
