Binge eating, whether formally diagnosed or occurring at subthreshold levels, is associated with adverse health consequences and decreased quality of life. Access to accessible, cost-effective interventions that effectively address binge eating episodes is critical for individuals with this condition, and smartphone applications have demonstrated promise in treating binge eating and …
The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Enhanced Cue Exposure Therapy (E-CET) in reducing negative emotional eating (NEE), compared to an active control intervention, behavioral lifestyle intervention (BLI), in a parallel-group, participant-blinded, randomized controlled trial. The secondary aim is to evaluate whether changes in conditioned stimulus-unconditioned stimulus (CS-US) …
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 …
The aim of this project is to test the feasibility, acceptability and clinical impact of a mobile app-based intervention (FoodTraining) to strengthen food-related inhibitory control over 4 weeks, in a sample of people with eating or weight disorders (i.e. obesity, binge-eating disorder (BED), or bulimia nervosa (BN)) receiving standard outpatient …
Eating disorders (EDs) are a critical concern on college campuses. Moreover, since the COVID-19 pandemic, ED prevalence has increased by 62% in university women and 140% in university men. Resources are inadequate to meet demand, leading to delays in students' access to treatment. Untreated (or poorly treated) EDs result in …
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 …
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy, efficiency, and patient experience of a new intervention program on adolescents with high-complexity eating disorders (ED). A prospective group of adolescents with ED (N=60) will follow this treatment program including four different phases: 1) Inpatient treatment; 2) Family Treatment Apartment; …
The goal of this study is to develop and refine an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Exposure Therapy for Eating Disorders chatbot web-app that effectively engages adolescents and young adults and decreases anxiety about weight gain. Participants will use the web-app as a supplemental therapeutic tool during their first six weeks of …
The goal of this study is to develop and test a digital program to help people with eating disorders in their everyday lives. The program uses brief surveys and sensor data collected by smartphones to understand when someone may be at higher risk for behaviors like restricting food, binge eating, …
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 …
