Researchers at Eastern Michigan University are seeking parents or caregivers of youth with anorexia (restricting, binge-purge, or atypical) who have participated in Family-Based Treatment (FBT) within the past year. Participants will complete a demographic questionnaire and a Zoom interview (approximately 1-1.5 hours). Participants will receive a $50 gift card for their time.
Please complete the following screening questionnaire to determine your eligibility: https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_d53zsfF7eAOeV5s
The purpose of this study is to investigate the barriers that parents might face when refeeding their child with AN, as well as any facilitators to refeeding in FBT. Over time, results of this study are expected to identify areas in which parents could benefit from additional support to optimize treatment outcomes for youth with anorexia.
