What this study is about

The main purpose is to investigate the effectiveness of a 10-week multicomponent camp intervention to reduce BE behavior in children and adolescents and explore in a randomized controlled setting if a parent-based BED-intervention has any add-on effect, attenuating the development of BE behavior in this sample. The study will include an initial follow-up assessment scheduled 10-12 weeks after camp completion and plans for long-term follow-up assessments one, three and five years after inclusion. Overall, we hypothesize that the multicomponent camp intervention will effectively reduce BE behavior in children and adolescents. Furthermore, we hypothesize that participants whose parents are randomized to receive the parental BED intervention will show a lower prevalence of BE behavior one year after the camp intervention compared with children whose parents receive standard care.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

Primary outcomes

Changes in Binge eating behavior using the STOB-screening toolBaseline, 10-weeks (post-intervention), 10-12 weeks after the intervention, and 1, 3 and 5 years after the intervention.

The STOB-screening tool consist of five yes/no questions + one question about number of overeating episodes

Changes in prevalence of Binge eating disorder (BED) using the ChEDEBaseline, and 10-weeks (post-intervention).

Binge eating disorder will be assessed using the Child Eating Disorder Examination interview
