| Title | Review of controlled psychotherapy treatment trials for binge eating disorder. | | Author(s) | Krysanski VL, Ferraro FR | | Institution | University of North Dakota, Grand Forks 58202, USA. | | Source | Psychol Rep 2008 Apr; 102(2):339-68. | | Abstract | This paper reviews investigations of psychotherapy outcome studies for binge eating disorder, which has recently been intensively studied as several researchers have undertaken the task of delineating which treatment options are the most effective. Several randomized, controlled clinical trials have provided important findings. A current debate concerns what the initial course of treatment should be, reducing binge eating patterns or reducing weight. Several limitations to this literature are mentioned, including the dearth of studies investigating treatment for men and boys with binge eating disorder. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
