Parent videos show promise for teens with eating disorders

This study tests whether a series of short educational videos for parents can help them better support their adolescent child with anorexia or atypical anorexia. About 50 parent-teen pairs will take part. Parents who watch the videos alongside standard treatment will be compared to those receiving standard treatment alone. The goal is to see if the videos improve parents' knowledge, confidence, and stress levels, and whether teens show fewer eating disorder symptoms.
