Environmental Strategies & Behavior Change to Reduce Overeating in Obese Children

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Obesity

In brief

There is a need for effective weight control methods for obese children. Environmental strategies such as reducing the size of dishware and serving utensils, storing food out of view and reducing food consumption while watching television may reduce food intake without requiring conscious, cognitive self-control. The investigators propose to test these methods when added to a current state-of-the-art behavioral program.
