Die therapeutische Beziehung in einem internetbasierten Programm zur Behandlung der Binge-Eating-Störung

Zusammenfassung

Anliegen: Erfassung der therapeutischen Beziehung (TB) und ihres Zusammenhangs zum Behandlungsergebnis in einem internetbasierten Behandlungsprogramm für Binge-Eating-Störung (BES).

Methode und Ergebnisse: Die TB (WAI-S) wurde durch die Teilnehmenden als sehr gut eingeschätzt. Es ergab sich ein Zusammenhang mit dem Outcome hinsichtlich der EDE-Q-Skalen, nicht jedoch für die Anzahl der Essanfälle.

Diskussion: Die Studie gibt erste Hinweise auf die wichtige Rolle der TB für das Ergebnis der internetbasierten Behandlung der BES.

Abstract

Objective: Findings about the association between working alliance and therapy outcome in Internet-based treatments are contradictory. Evidence for the working alliance in Internet-based treatment for Binge Eating Disorder is still missing and can help to elucidate this question.

Methods and Results: In an Internet-based cognitive-behavioral intervention, working alliance (WAI-S, mid n = 59; post n = 49) and eating disorder symptoms (EDE-Q, n = 49) as therapy outcome were assessed. A positive working alliance was reported by study participants. Working alliance had significant correlations with and EDE-Q-scales but not with binge eating episodes.

Conclusions: Our study refers to the important role working alliance has for therapy outcome.
