Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to explore the feasibility of the Body Project Treatment (BPT) in Norway and examine potential reductions in eating disorder (ED) psychopathology from pre- to post-test. Method: This is a mixed-method design pilot study. A total of 34 females with ED participated in BPT groups. Participants completed self-report questionnaires at pre- and post-test and were invited to participate in focus groups after completing BPT. Feedback from clinicians was also gathered. Results: Overall, BPT was found to be feasible, and significant reductions in ED psychopathology were demonstrated between assessments. Participants were generally satisfied with participating in BPT groups. The main themes that emerged from focus groups included i) shared experiences, ii) clear structure and iii) changes in body and mind. Conclusions: Results indicate that BPT is feasible and may produce reductions in ED symptoms. Further effects remain to be explored in a large-scale study.
