Filter by:Twenty women, ages 60 or older, will be consented and enrolled in a single-arm, pilot implementation trial of the age-tailored cognitive-behavioral based BE intervention. Participants will complete assessments at baseline, post-intervention, and at two follow-up timepoints; weekly BE frequency will be collected to monitor progress during the intervention period.
Body dissatisfaction is most common among girls in their teenage years and young adulthood, this is also around the time where the risk of developing binge eating disorder is the highest. Black/African American girls are more likely to engage in binge eating behaviors compared to their White American counterparts; however, they receive less help for eating issues. Further, increase rates of obesity in the Black/African American population may indicate that binge eating may be a bigger problem for this population than discussed. Therefore, the primary purpose of this randomized controlled pilot is to assess the feasibility of this pilot study to be used in a large scale fully-powered study. The secondary purpose of this study is to assess if two different nutrition and body image programs elicit positive outcomes among Black/African American teenage girls who indicate a desire to improve body image.
The purpose of this 6-month randomized clinical trial is to examine the feasibility of recruitment, attendance, retention, program adherence, and satisfaction of a digital application designed, Centering Appetite to improve glucose scores (HbA1c) and binge eating in African American adults with type 2 diabetes. Intervention participants will receive type 2 diabetes education and web-based lessons on appetite self-regulation. Participants will also receive a Fitbit to monitor daily physical activity. The investigators will follow up with participants at six months.
Adults and adolescents will be asked to participate in a 10-week intervention to better understand their emotions and improve their relationship with food.
More than 30% of Black women with obesity binge eat. Binge eating may increase the risk for the development of metabolic syndrome and binge-eating-disorder (BED), which is associated with severe obesity. Though several effective treatments for binge eating exist, Black women have not fared well. Not only has their inclusion in treatment trials been limited, but when participating, they are more likely to drop out, and/or lose less weight, compared to their White counterparts. Furthermore, treatment for binge eating is often not available in primary care and community-based settings places where Black women are more likely to receive treatment for their eating and weight-related concerns. Currently, there is scant intervention research to treat binge eating in Black women. With the highest rates of obesity (57%) nationally, Black women are in need of culturally-relevant treatments for binge eating and weight gain prevention. Given the established relationship between frequent binge eating and subsequent weight gain, addressing binge eating among Black women with obesity is imperative.
Primary Study Aims: 1. To evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a 10-week mindful eating self-help program for women who binge eat during pregnancy. Primary efficacy targets will include measures of mindful eating and binge eating. Secondary efficacy targets will involve measures of body image and well-being. 2. To evaluate the incremental utility of adding use of a companion mindful eating smart phone application for enhancing the acceptability and preliminary efficacy of the program. 3. To gain insights into ways in which this program may be better tailored to the experiences of pregnancy for future program adaptation and refinement.
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.
