NCT03016247

Brief Summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect of the Trust-building weight Self-management Together (TRUST) intervention on weight self-management behaviors and neural processing in overweight/obese adolescents. Study aims include comparing the effects of the TRUST intervention with Enhanced Usual Care on BMI and quality of life in overweight/obese early adolescents and exploring differences in neural processing (DMT/TPN switching and reward activation).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Body Mass Index

    Statistically significant change in BMI from baseline to 3 months and 6 months

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Eating

    6 months

  • Physical Activity

Study Arms (2)

Enhanced Usual Care

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Group will receive a single visit with a Nutritionist for dietary and physical activity counseling

Behavioral: Enhanced Usual Care

TRUST intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Group will receive parent-adolescent trust-building and weight self-management training.

Behavioral: TRUST Intervention

Interventions

The TRUST intervention will be guided by Rotenberg's Framework of Interpersonal Trust 3. The TRUST group will meet with an interventionist trained in weight self-management for eight 90-minute weekly sessions. Each session will include adolescent/parent trust-building exercises (honesty, reliability, emotional connection), didactic content, experiential skills developing (nutrition label reading), behavior-change goal-setting, and problem-solving.
