Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of a novel couple-based intervention for binge-eating disorder (BED) relative to an established evidence-based individual treatment (cognitive-behavioral therapy-enhanced; CBT-E) in a community clinic setting.

Primary Outcome

Binge-eating abstinence is measured using the Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) and is the number of participants across study time points achieving abstinence from objective binge eating over the past 28 days. The EDE-Q measure replaces the measure in the protocol to capture a month of abstinence. The weekly binge measure was unsuitable upon review of the data because the 4 times weekly measures did not capture an exact 4-week time frame because of therapy scheduling irregularit

Interventions
