Abstract
This study evaluated the effectiveness of group cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) and group interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) for binge eating. Fifty-six women with nonpurging bulimia were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 groups: CBT, IPT, or a wait-list control (WL). Treatment was administered in small groups that met for 16 weekly sessions. At posttreatment, both group CBT and group IPT treatment conditions showed significant improvement in reducing binge eating, whereas the WL condition did not. Binge eating remained significantly below baseline levels for both treatment conditions at 6-month and 1-year follow-ups. These data support the central role of both eating behavior and interpersonal factors in the understanding and treatment of bulimia.

TL;DR: There is no evidence yet that individualized treatment based upon a problem analysis of the individual patient is better than treatment based on standardized treatment manuals, and the implication for treatment selection is that it can be both economically and therapeutically wise to start with a standardized behavioral program and provide individualization treatment only to those patients who do not improve with standardized treatment.
