| Research Abstract |
In this review, the effectiveness of different cognitive-behavioral interventions for overweight and obese adults was evaluated. Reviewed studies were obtained by computerized searches of The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL. Studies involving cognitive-behavioral therapy, behavior therapy, and relaxation therapy were reviewed. Reviewed studies were published randomized controlled trials in which one of the outcome measures of the study was weight change. Meta-analyses were performed using a random effect model. Cognitive-behavioral therapy was found to result in significantly greater weight reductions and BMI reductions than control when assessed as a stand-alone weight loss strategy. The results of this review suggest that cognitive-behavioral therapy can help people who are overweight or obese by enhancing weight reduction. There were not enough studies to provide conclusive evidence about the effectiveness of relaxation therapy.
