| Popis: | Objective To evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a couple-based intervention for binge-eating disorder (BED), called UNiting couples In the Treatment of Eating disorders-BED edition (UNITE-BED). Method In an open pilot trial, 11 couples in which one or both adult partners had a diagnosis of DSM-5 threshold or sub-threshold BED participated in 22 weekly sessions of UNITE-BED. Patients also received individual treatment, outside of the context of the trial. Couples completed measures on treatment satisfaction, eating disorder symptom severity, depression, anxiety, emotion regulation, and relational functioning at post-treatment and 3-month follow-up. Statistical analyses were conducted to identify change over the course of treatment. Results UNITE was feasible and acceptable to the majority of couples (9% dropout; high satisfaction ratings). Objective binge abstinence was 81.8% and subjective binge abstinence was 45.5% by post-treatment. Patient binge-eating symptomatology reduced over the course of treatment with results maintained at follow up. Patients' depression symptoms decreased and patients' emotion regulation improved at both time points. Discussion Including partners in treatment for BED may be beneficial. Results support further evaluation of the efficacy of couple-based interventions for BED in larger randomized-controlled trials. |
