- Original description
The main purpose is to investigate the effectiveness of a 10-week multicomponent camp intervention to reduce BE behavior in children and adolescents and explore in a randomized controlled setting if a parent-based BED-intervention has any add-on effect, attenuating the development of BE behavior in this sample. The study will include an initial follow-up assessment scheduled 10-12 weeks after camp completion and plans for long-term follow-up assessments one, three and five years after inclusion.Read full original descriptionShow less
Effectiveness of a 10-week Multicomponent Intervention Combined With Parent Education on Binge Eating Behavior in Children and Adolescents: a Randomized Controlled Trial With Long-term Follow-up
The main purpose is to investigate the effectiveness of a 10-week multicomponent camp intervention to reduce BE behavior in children and adolescents and explore in a randomized controlled setting if a parent-based BED-intervention has any add-on effect, attenuating the development of BE behavior in this sample. The study will include an initial follow-up assessment scheduled 10-12 weeks after camp completion and plans for long-term follow-up assessments one, three and five years after inclusion.
Overall, we hypothesize that the multicomponent camp intervention will effectively reduce BE behavior in children and adolescents. Furthermore, we hypothesize that participants whose parents are randomized to receive the parental BED intervention will show a lower prevalence of BE behavior one year after the camp intervention compared with children whose parents receive standard care.
Inclusion: Attending the camp in Hobro or Fjordmark from January 2027 to December 2027; 7-14 years of age at recruitment; Participants must have written informed consent from parent/guardian before camp to participate; At least one parent/guardian submit written informed consent to participate in the study with their child.
Exclusion: Taking weight loss medication; A medical condition affecting dietary intake and/or eating behavior; The parent/guardian don't understand the written informed consent; Participant or parent/guardian are unwilling to or unable to comply with the study protocol and instructions given by the study staff.
