Filter by:The purpose of this study is to conduct a micro-randomized trial to learn which evidence-based targets within a mobile intervention for binge eating and weight-related behaviors are most impactful for which people and in what sequence.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot trial of a mobile intervention that targets binge eating and weight-related behaviors, to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the intervention among adults with recurrent binge eating, diabetes, and food insecurity.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a digital therapeutic device (WELT-ED) based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for the treatment of eating disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is WELT-ED as effective as standard treatment in reducing the symptoms of eating disorders? - Is the WELT-ED safe for use in the target population without causing adverse effects? Participants will: - Undergo assessments to determine their baseline health status and severity of eating disorder symptoms. - Use WELT-ED or receive standard treatment as directed for the duration of the study period (8 weeks). - Participate in assessments to monitor changes in their eating disorder symptoms and any potential side effects.
This project aims to assess the efficacy of the Juniver program on symptoms of eating disorders via a randomised controlled trial. The Juniver program is a self-help intervention for eating disorders delivered digitally, through an iPhone app. It features three components: an evidence-based curriculum, interactive tools, and moderated peer support groups. These three components integrate the evidence for (a) Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for eating disorders; (b) Just-in-Time Adaptive Intervention; and (c) peer mentorship as an adjunct intervention for the treatment of eating disorders. The program was developed by the Juniver team made up of people with lived experience with eating disorders and professional experience in digital health, a panel of neuroscientists and experts specialising in eating disorders, and direct research with 500 participants. This trial aims to investigate the impact of the Juniver program on self-reported eating disorder symptoms, as well as on symptoms of depression, anxiety, psychosocial impairment associated with eating disorders, and perceived stress. This will occur via a randomised controlled trial comparing Juniver to a wait-list control condition over a 12-week period, with further evaluation of the effects of Juniver up to 24-weeks.
This study is a pilot clinical trial of a new guided self-help CBT for binge eating. Participants will complete an intake assessment; following determination of eligibility, participants will then complete four months of treatment (weekly guided self-help sessions). At the end of treatment, participants will complete an interview with a research clinician to assess outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of two technology-based intervention systems (including an Advanced Digital Data Sharing (ADDS) with Coaches or a smartphone-based just-in-time, adaptive interventions (JITAIs) system) for improving treatment adherence, skills utilization and binge eating when used in conjunction with a self-help cognitive behavior therapy [CBT] delivered via a smartphone application [app]). The study is being conducted to test a novel approach to providing evidence-based treatment for binge eating without clinician support in a routine clinical setting.
Using a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study, this study will evaluate functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) as a pharmacodynamic biomarker of opioid antagonism in adolescents with eating disorders. The hypothesis is that fMRI will be able to detect acute reward pathway modulation by naltrexone (an opioid antagonist) in pre-defined regions of interest (anterior cingulate cortex, nucleus accumbens, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex).
The purpose of this study is to identify the independent and combined effects of two types of self-monitoring and two types of micro-interventions when combined with standard cognitive behavioral treatment for bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED). The primary aims of this study are (1) to evaluate the optimal complexity of Self-Monitoring and Micro-Interventions on eating pathology (at post-treatment and at 6 and 12-month follow-ups and (2) to test the hypotheses that the optimal complexity level of each component is moderated by baseline deficits in self-regulation. The secondary aim will be to test target engagement for each level of complexity for each component, i.e., to test whether higher complexity of each technological components is associated with better rates of therapeutic skill use and acquisition and that improvements in skill use and acquisition are associated with improvements in outcomes. A final exploratory aim will be to quantify the component interaction effects, which may be partially additive (because components overlap and/or there is diminishing return), fully additive, or synergistic (in that component complexities may partially depend on each other).
This study aims to determine the relationships among loss of control eating, restriction, relative reinforcing value of high energy-dense food, and obesity risk. In order to achieve this aim, the investigators will follow children over the course of a year, obtaining behavioral and observational measurements, in addition to a two-week restricted access and two week non-restricted access period.
The purpose of the present pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and likely effectiveness of an evidence-based guided self-help intervention for binge eating and related disordered over-eating in those unable to access clinician provided treatments. If feasible, acceptable and likely to be effective, such interventions could be made available more widely as an early intervention to those in need. Such interventions have the potential to improve quality of life by removing or ameliorating symptoms that impair psychological and social functioning. Eligible participants will receive the guided self-help intervention - an evidence-based self help program in the form of a self-help book plus telephone support and encouragement to follow the program provided by specially trained help-line volunteers. Support completing the self-help program will be provided over a period of 4 months and participants will be followed up for a year after completion of the intervention. Participants will be asked to complete brief online assessments before starting the program, at the end of 4 months when they complete the program and at 6 month and 12 month follow up.
