In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The aim of this project is to test the feasibility, acceptability and clinical impact of a mobile app-based intervention (FoodTraining) to strengthen food-related inhibitory control over 4 weeks, in a sample of people with eating or weight disorders (i.e. obesity, binge-eating disorder (BED), or bulimia nervosa (BN)) receiving standard outpatient treatment (i.e., treatment as usual (TAU) encompassing guided self-help or psychotherapy, pharmacological therapy or diet). The training will be offered in addition to TAU (experimental group) and compared to TAU alone (control group). Participants will complete questionnaires to measure eating behaviour, eating disorder psychopathology, symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress, social functioning and quality of life at baseline, 4 and 8 weeks. They will also complete momentary assessments using a mobile application (FoodTracker) to report on
