Acceptance and commitment therapy to reduce eating disorder symptoms and body image problems in patients with residual eating disorder symptoms: A randomized controlled trial
Overview
This randomized controlled trial compares a 12-session group Acceptance and Commitment Therapy intervention against treatment as usual for women with residual eating disorder symptoms and body image issues. The study reports that participants receiving ACT demonstrated significantly greater reductions in these symptoms and required less specialized care over a two-year follow-up period compared to the control group.
