About this study

The objectives of this open trial feasibility study are to examine the impacts of intensive health behavior and lifestyle treatment (IHBLT) on youth and caregiver executive functioning (EF), weight status, health behaviors (dietary intake, disordered eating, physical activity), and psychological functioning. Investigators propose to enroll 10 youth 13 to 17 years of age who have overweight or obesity (OV/OB) and a primary caregiver. Families will receive six months of evidence-based family focused group IHBLT based on social, cognitive, and family systems theories. Families will complete assessments of EF skills (objective and self-report), weight status, dietary intake, physical activity, and psychological functioning at pre- and post-treatment.
