Solution

The criteria used to diagnose anorexia nervosa include:

  1. Refusal to maintain body weight at or above a minimally normal weight for age and height
  2. Lack of menstrual periods
  3. Intense fear of gaining weight

Frequent bingeing episodes occurring at least 3 times per week is not a criteria for anorexia nervosa, but rather for bulimia nervosa.
