Strict elimination diets and fear of adverse reactions may contribute to maladaptive coping including behaviors avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID)-related eating patterns. Therefore, this study aimed to compare ARFID-related eating behavior scores between children with food allergy and healthy controls and to identify the affected domains.
