Official title
Family Therapy for Adolescent Bulimia Nervosa: A Controlled Comparison
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary hypotheses are: * A procedurally distinct family therapy is an effective and essential way to reduce bingeing and purging in adolescents with BN, and leads to the long-term amelioration of bulimic symptoms. * Family therapy is an effective way to bring about meaningful improvements in family interaction. * Family therapy will produce significantly larger reductions in bulimic symptoms and improved family interaction in adolescents with BN compared to a control supportive psychotherapy.
