Parent-Based Prevention (PBP) for Parents With Eating Disorders

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Eating Disorders, Eating Behavior

In brief

Parents with eating disorders exhibit greater concerns and dilemmas about developing healthy habits in their children. Studies indicate that the offspring of parents with eating disorders have more developmental and interpersonal difficulties. Consequently, these parents should receive personalized care to enhance their parental capacity and support them in their decision making process. The Parent-Based Prevention of Eating Disorders (PBP) is a promising intervention that may help improve feeding and eating practices and children outcomes, by engaging both parents in a short-term program. This study aims to empirically evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of PBP over a wait-list control group (i.e., treatment-as-usual) in a Randomized Case Series Trial.
