简要总结
Both behavioral, psychological, and cognitive differences related to social cognitive function have been related to illness-state in eating disorders, but interventions that directly target these problems are limited. This pilot intervention explores whether a brief art-therapy team-building intervention coupled with psychoeducation about social behavior can change self-concept or clinical symptoms in patients with eating disorders. Participants will complete pre-treatment assessments related to social behaviors and clinical symptoms, attend four two-hour group sessions, and provide two follow-up post-treatment assessments at 1-4 weeks after the treatment and 3-5 months later. Comparisons between the pre-intervention data and the first follow-up will be the primary outcome measures. The primary hypotheses are that participants will show increases in self-esteem and positive self-attributions and decreases in eating disorder symptoms after the intervention. The secondary hypothesis is that other clinical symptoms (depression, anxiety) will be improved after the intervention. Feedback from participants about their experience with the study will assess perceived benefits as well as acquisition of the psychoeducation targets.
详细描述
This project will recruit subjects with eating disorders in the Dallas Fort Worth area. Pre-assessment measures of anxiety, self-esteem, depression, eating disorder symptoms, and attributional style will be completed before the intervention. Participants attend four weekly sessions of a group psychoeducational intervention. The intervention includes an art therapy experiential activity, psychoeducation on social function, reflection and discussion of sample videos and scripts, homework assignments, and guided discussions. Post-assessments will be completed 1-4 weeks and 3-5 months after the interventions is completed.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in self- attribution (externalizing bias score) from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 1
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks after intervention
Internal Personal Situational Attributions Questionnaire (IPSAQ) measures externalizing bias (EB) that is calculated by subtracting the number of internal attributions for negative events from the number of internal attributions for positive events. A positive EB score indicates strong self-serving bias (blaming oneself less for negative events than for positive events).
Change in state self-esteem score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 1
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks after intervention
State Self-Esteem Scale measures a participant's self-esteem at a given point in time. Possible scores range from 0-5 with higher scores indicating better outcome.
Change in trait self-esteem score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 1
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks after intervention
Rosenberg trait self-esteem scale measures trait self-esteem (TSE). Possible scores range from 0-4 (from 1: strongly disagree, to 4: strongly agree), with higher scores indicating higher TSE.
Study components feedback score
时间窗: 4 weeks after starting intervention
The Attribution Bias Intervention Questionnaire addressed study component feedback using both a rating scales and free form written commentary. Possible scores range from 1 to 10 with higher scores indicating more positive values.
Patient satisfaction score
时间窗: 5-9 weeks after intervention
The Attribution Bias Feedback Form measured patient satisfaction (the impact and value of study) with free-form verbal responses as well as a single rating scale. Possible scores range from 1 to 5 with higher scores indicating more satisfaction with the intervention.
Change in eating disorder symptoms score from Pre- assessment to Post-assessment 1
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks after intervention
The Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire measures the severity of eating disorder symptoms. Possible scores on global eating disorder pathology range from 0 to 6 with higher scores indicating more severity of eating disorder, with scores of 2 or less typical of normative eating behavior/cognitions and scores of 2 to 6 are consistent with eating disorder symptoms, with higher scores suggesting more types of disordered eating are present.
次要结局
- Change in anxiety symptoms score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 1(Baseline, 4 weeks after intervention)
- Change in anxiety symptoms score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 2(Baseline, 3-5 months after intervention)
- Change in eating disorder symptoms score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 2(Baseline, 3-5 months after intervention)
- Change in self- attribution (externalizing bias score) from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 2(Baseline, 3-5 months after intervention)
- Change in state self-esteem score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 2(Baseline, 3-5 months after intervention)
- Change in trait self-esteem score from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 2(Baseline, 3-5 months after intervention)
- Change in depression symptoms scores from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 1(Baseline, 4 weeks after intervention)
- Change in depression symptoms scores from Pre-assessment to Post-assessment 2(Baseline, 3-5 months after intervention)
