Motivate: a web-based intervention BEHAVIORAL

A web-based intervention focuses on managing expectations of assessment, addressing ambivalence and increasing users' motivation and confidence to attend their initial appointment. This is achieved through the use of information, motivational tools, interactive activities and stories from other individuals with EDs spread across four 15-20 minute modules.
