A randomized controlled trial on the long-term effects of a 1-month behavioral weight control program assisted by computer tailored advice
2007, Behaviour Research and TherapyCitation Excerpt :However, behavioral therapy for weight control has not widely been carried out because of its time-consuming nature and the lack of a sufficient number of adequately trained practitioners. To solve those problems, several methods have been reported; treatments utilizing self-manuals (Hagen, 1974; Peterson, Abrams, Elder, & Beaudin, 1985), correspondence programs (Jeffery & Gerber, 1982; Jeffery, Hellerstedt, & Schmid, 1990) and/or computer technologies (Burnett, Taylor, & Agras, 1985; Harvey-Berino, 1998; Harvey-Berino et al., 2002; Tate, Wing, & Winnet, 2001; Taylor, Agras, Losch, Plante, & Burnett, 1991; Wylie-Rosett et al., 2001). Computerized treatments using internet (Harvey-Berino et al., 2002; Tate et al., 2001) and telecommunication (Harvey-Berino, 1998) or totally computerized treatment trials (Wylie-Rosett et al., 2001) has also been introduced.
