- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The main goal of this study is to investigate whether food cue exposure is<br /><br>significantly more effective to decrease eating in the absence of hunger, binge<br /><br>eating/ overeating and BMI in overweight children and adolescents, compared to<br /><br>psycho-education training. The endpoint is that overweight children who often<br /><br>eat out of hedonic hunger will more easily resist palatable food after a short<br /><br>but intensive food cue exposure training, will have less eating binges, and<br /><br>that this will result in a BMI decrease. Furthermore, the endpoint is that this<br /><br>effect is long-standing and will remain intact at follow-up. </p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>1. To study whether repeated exposures decrease cue reactivity to palatable<br /><br>food over time, as measured by food cravings and salivary responses.<br /><br>2. To compare the effect of cue exposure training and psycho-education training<br /><br>on general measures of self-control and self-esteem.<br /><br>3. To compare the impact of cue exposure training and psycho-education training<br /><br>on dietary restraint, and self-reported eating, weight and shape concerns.<br /><br>4. To compare the children*s expectation and evaluation of cue exposure<br /><br>training and psycho-education training. </p><br>
