Also anxiety has significant correlation with disordered eating behavior (DEB). Stepwise regression Indicated impaired autonomy and performance (P<0/01& =β 0/48), disconnection and rejection (P<0/01& =β 0/32), impaired limits (P<0/01& =β 0/29) and anxiety (P<0/01& =β 0/15) explain significant variance of disordered eating behavior (DEB). Conclusion: According to significant role of early maladaptive schemas and anxiety in explains variance of disordered eating behavior in adolescent females, correction of maladaptive schemas and reduction of anxiety can be effective in reducing eating problems.
