Trial Outcomes & Findings for Response to Acute Exercise in Eating Disorders (NCT NCT06213883)

NCT ID: NCT06213883

Last Updated: 2026-08-25

Results Overview

Response to body image was measured using the BISS which is a 6-item scale that asks participants to report on their momentary body satisfaction on a 9-point Likert scale (1-9, higher scores, higher satisfaction). Each item begins with the sentence "Right now, I feel" \[for instance: "Right now, I feel (Extremely dissatisfied to Extremely satisfied)"\]. Participants are asked to rate their momentary body satisfaction every five minutes during each of 4 conditions: Prescribed Exercise (Reward Task), Self-Paced Exercise (Threat Task), Prescribed Rest (Reward Task), or Self-Paced Rest (Threat Task).

Response to body image was measured using the BISS which is a 6 item scale that asks participants to report on their momentary body satisfaction on a 9-point Likert scale (1-9, higher scores, higher satisfaction). The Average Person item asks participants to rate how they feel like they look compared to the average person from a great deal worse (1) to a great deal better (9). Participants are asked to rate their momentary body satisfaction every five minutes during each of 4 conditions: Prescribed Exercise (Reward Task), Self-Paced Exercise (Threat Task), Prescribed Rest (Reward Task), or Self-Paced Rest (Threat Task).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Every 5 minutes during 30 minute bout of activity . There is no follow up beyond the study day itself.

Response to body image was measured using the BISS which is a 6 item scale that asks participants to report on their momentary body satisfaction on a 9-point Likert scale (1-9, higher scores, higher satisfaction). Each item begins with the sentence "Right now, I feel" \[for instance: "Right now, I feel (Extremely dissatisfied to Extremely satisfied)"\]. Participants are asked to rate their momentary body satisfaction every five minutes during each of 4 conditions: Prescribed Exercise (Reward Task), Self-Paced Exercise (Threat Task), Prescribed Rest (Reward Task), or Self-Paced Rest (Threat Task).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Every 5 minutes during a 30 minute bout of activity. There is no follow up beyond the study day itself.

Population: The self-paced exercise condition starts with a 5 minute warm up - the investigators start recording the survey data after this time point.

Participants self-report items representing the highest loading items from the Physical Activity Affect Scale (PAAS) every 5 minutes during exercise. These items include feeling 'Anxious', 'Crummy', 'Enthusiastic', 'Fatigued' and 'Calm'. Participants rate each item using a 5-point scale (0=do not feel-4=feel very strongly).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Every 5 minutes during a 30 minute bout of activity. There is no follow up beyond the study day itself.

Population: The self-paced exercise condition starts with a 5 minute warm up - the investigators start recording the survey data after this time point.

Participants self-report items representing the highest loading items from the Physical Activity Affect Scale (PAAS) every 5 minutes during exercise. These items include feeling 'Anxious', 'Crummy', 'Enthusiastic', 'Fatigued' and 'Calm'. Participants rate each item using a 5-point scale (0=do not feel-4=feel very strongly).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Every 5 minutes during a 30 minute bout of activity. There is no follow up beyond the study day itself.

Population: The self-paced exercise condition starts with a 5 minute warm up - the investigators start recording the survey data after this time point. Outcome measure was planned for exercise conditions only and data was not collected from participants during rest conditions.

Participants were surveyed for their perceived exertion throughout the exercise conditions only. The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale was used to measure perceived exertion, rated 6 to 20 (no exertion to maximal exertion).

Timeframe: pre-exercise (Baseline), post-exercise (30 minutes), pre-rest (Baseline), post-rest (30 minutes). There is no follow up beyond the study day itself.

Biomarkers will be collected via blood samples taken before and after exercise and rest and measured via Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits: * circulating leptin (leptin immunoassay) * circulating endocannabinoids (2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and anandamide (AEA) plasma-based immunoassays) * circulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF immunoassay) * circulating cortisol (Cortisol immunoassay)

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: pre-exercise (Baseline), post-exercise (30 minutes), pre-rest (Baseline), post-rest (30 minutes). There is no follow up beyond the study day itself.

Biomarkers will be collected via blood samples taken before and after exercise and rest and measured via Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits: * circulating leptin (leptin immunoassay) * circulating endocannabinoids (2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and anandamide (AEA) plasma-based immunoassays) * circulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF immunoassay) * circulating cortisol (Cortisol immunoassay)
