Journal ArticleDOI
Unfavourable family characteristics and their associations with childhood obesity: a cross-sectional study.
TL;DR: Familial factors have moderate ability to predict children's weight status and there is a need to identify other familial mechanisms taking into account developmental and temporal evolutions over the past decade.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inpatient treatment of obese children: a multicomponent programme without stringent calorie restriction
TL;DR: A multicomponent long-term inpatient treatment programme is a valuable treatment option for obese children, with a lasting effect up to 14 months post-treatment, Nevertheless, more research is needed to characterise those children who regain weight after treatment and how this may be prevented.
Journal ArticleDOI

An empirical typology of perfectionism in early-to-mid adolescents and its relation with eating disorder symptoms.
TL;DR: Cluster analysis of naturally occurring combinations of PS and EC perfectionism in early-to-mid adolescents suggests that a combination of high personal standards and evaluative concerns (rather than the presence of one of these two dimensions alone) is most strongly related to ED symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
