TLDR
This article evaluated the effectiveness of group cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) and group interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) for binge eating in women with nonpurging bulimia.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.read more

TL;DR: The authors found that the effect sizes were homogeneously distributed about 0, as was expected under the Dodo bird conjecture, and that under the most liberal assumptions, the upper bound of the true effect was about.20.

Behavioral Treatment of Obesity
TL;DR: Behavioral treatment for obesity seeks to identify and modify eating, activity, and thinking habits that contribute to patients' weight problems as discussed by the authors, recognizing that body weight is affected by factors other than behavior, which include genetic, metabolic, and hormonal influences.

Bulimia nervosa treatment: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials
