Binge Eating Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Enhanced Cue Exposure Therapy for Negative Emotional Eating
The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of enhanced cue exposure therapy (E-CET) in reducing negative emotional eating, in comparison to an active control behavioral lifestyle intervention (BLI) in a double-blind, parallel, randomized controlled trial. The secondary aim is to evaluate whether changes in the four types of CS-US expectancy mediate the changes in NEE.

Primary | Changes in the score on the emotional eating subscale of the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) | Negative emotional eating measured by the emotional eating subscale of the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) consisting of 13 items assessing the tendency to eat in response to feelings of depression, irritability, anger, anxiety, fear, boredom, disappointment, and stress on a 5-point Likert scale from 1 to 5. The cutoff point of >3.25 is used to indicate negative emotional eating tendencies. Higher scores indicate greater tendency and severity | 14 weeks | |
Secondary | Changes in weight | Measured in the laboratory using a digital measuring scale. | 14 weeks | |
Secondary | Changes in mood | Measured using the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) consisting of 21 items rated on 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much) Likert scales assessing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress symptoms. Higher scores indicate greater severity. | 14 weeks | |
Secondary | Changes in quality of life | Measured using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) with five items measuring subjective life satisfaction on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Higher score indicate greater satisfaction with life. | 14 weeks | |
Secondary | Changes in treatment acceptability and satisfaction | Measured by twelve items created to assess participant's perception of the acceptability and utility of E-CET for reducing NEE using a 7 point Likert scale from 0 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Higher scores indicate greater perceived acceptability and utility of E-CET. | 14 weeks |
