Family Based Behavioral Treatment

The intervention for both groups will be a 4-month Family-Based Behavioral Treatment (FBT), which includes dietary changes, physical activity changes, and behavioral therapy. Treatment is provided in separate parent and child groups. Families will learn to reduce caloric consumption and increase caloric expenditure (physical activity). Behavior therapy includes stimulus control, self-monitoring, goal setting and contracting, parenting skills, skills for managing high-risk situations, and maintenance and relapse prevention. Families will self-monitor caloric intake, breakfast consumption, physical activity, and hunger and satiety throughout the day.
