Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anorexia nervosa is most likely to begin in the early to middle adolescent years, typically between the ages of 14 and 18. While it is possible for it to develop in childhood or later adulthood, these cases are less common. Emerging adulthood (ages 18-25) is also a time period where individuals may develop an eating disorder, but it is still less common than during adolescence.
