DClinPsy AD, et al. - Given that in cognitive-behavioral therapy, clinicians often fail to weigh patients appropriately for eating disorders (CBT-ED), despite guidelines stressing the need to do so, researchers sought for the possible patient- and clinician-based reasons for the omission of this element of treatment. Vignettes that varied in patient diagnosis and distress levels were presented by 74 CBT-ED clinicians, in order to determine if clinician weighing practices are influenced by those characteristics. As per observations, the patient's presentation and clinician's own beliefs are identified influencing their use of weighing, rather than working within guidelines. Supporting clinicians via education, training, and supervision may assist in addressing this failure to weigh patients in the most therapeutic way.
