How We measure our results
Care Informed by Research + Training
We utilize three evidence-based outcome measurement tools to monitor client progress, assess program effectiveness, and optimize treatment plans. In 2024, we enhanced this framework by adding the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), a validated tool for assessing psychiatric symptom severity. This addition complements our existing assessments and further strengthens our ability to track meaningful clinical outcomes in mental health, addiction, and eating disorder recovery.



Eating Attitudes (EAT-26)
Aster Springs uses EAT-26, a leading standardized self-report measure of eating disorder symptoms and concerns. This assessment features a six-point Likert scale and includes measures for behavioral symptoms and body mass index (BMI). It provides an overall score along with three subscale scores — dieting, bulimia and food preoccupation, and oral control.
Behavior + Symptom Identification Scale (BASIS-24)
Aster Springs also utilizes BASIS-24, a comprehensive assessment tool that measures a wide range of symptoms across the diagnostic spectrum. Using a five-point Likert scale, its 24 questions generate an overall score and six subscale scores covering depression, relationships, self-harm, emotional lability, psychosis, and substance use.
EAT-26 Subscale Interpretation Guide
1. Diet
This involves intense focus on calorie counts, carbohydrates, and sugar intake, often driven by a strong desire to be thinner.
2. Bulimia + food preoccupation
This includes behaviors like purging after meals and persistent, excessive thoughts about food.
3. Oral control
An individual's perceived need — or lack thereof — for self-restraint in eating behaviors.
