Behavioral Treatments of Obesity (General Psychology)
By J. Foreyt.
Description
In the last decade, behavior therapists have begun focusing their attention on treating obesity. By viewing the development of eating behaviors as similar to the development of other learned patterns of behavior, they have investigated a number of physiological techniques, broadly based on learned principles, aimed at helping obese persons achieve control over their eating by manipulating the antecedent and consequent conditions of behavior. This research has brought some remarkable advances in our knowledge of obesity and its treatment. - from Amzon
