Detaljert beskrivelse

Evidence-based weight management programs are effective when individuals are able to consistently adhere to recommendations. However, a large proportion of treatment-seeking individuals do not experience clinically significant weight loss. Innovative strategies are needed to optimize behavior change in weight management interventions. The proposed randomized controlled trial tests two self-regulatory approaches to improve intentional weight loss and diet quality in individuals with overweight or obesity: (1) an environmental control strategy (AVOID) and (2) an impulse control training strategy (RESIST). Specifically, 500 women and men (BMI between 25-45 kg/m2) will be recruited from the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center network of hospitals and clinics. All participants will be enrolled in a 12-month weight-management program (WW, formerly Weight Watchers©) focusing on diet, physical activity and mindset skills, and randomized to one of four study arms: (1) WW only, (2) WW + modification of home food environment and online grocery delivery (AVOID), (3) WW + gamified inhibitory control training (RESIST), (4) WW + AVOID + RESIST. Baseline, 6- and 12-month assessments will be completed by experienced, English and Spanish speaking study staff. Aim 1 (Outcomes). (a) Tests how AVOID and RESIST affect weight loss and waist circumference (primary) and diet quality (secondary). H1a: AVOID and/or RESIST (arms 2, 3, 4) will result in greater weight loss at 6-month and 12-month timepoints compared to WW alone. (b) Tests potential ripple effects of AVOID and RESIST on available household members' diet quality (primary) and weight (secondary). H1b: The investigators predict that AVOID (arms 2 and 4) will produce greater dietary changes in household members than WW alone and RESIST (arms 1 and 3). Aim 2 (Mechanisms). Tests the mechanistic pathways of AVOID and RESIST by (a) comparing longitudinal changes in inhibitory control and home food environment across study arms; and (b) whether inhibitory control and the home food environment mediate the relationships between study arms and anthropometric and dietary outcomes. H2: AVOID will produce changes in the home food environment and RESIST will operate on inhibitory control. Aim 3 (Moderators). Examines how (a) individual characteristics (age, sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, household composition, physical activity, baseline BMI and executive functioning), and (b) process data (frequency of grocery delivery, dining out and take out, impulse control training and WW app use) moderate the relationship between study arms and anthropometric and dietary outcomes. These considerations are important to help explain heterogeneity in intervention outcomes and to understand who benefits from AVOID and/or RESIST.

The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) will be used to assess activity in 5 domains: job-related; transportation; housework, house maintenance, and caring for family; recreation, sport, and leisure-time physical activity; and time spent sitting. Data conferred by the WW program will also be leveraged, as participants track their activity (type, duration and intensity) via the WW mobile app or online website. Investigators will examine how engagement in exercise and daily activities moderate the relationships between study arms and outcomes.

Baseline, 6-month, 12-month
Eating attitudes
Tidsramme: Baseline, 6-month, 12-month

The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ) will be used to assess participants' approach to food and eating along three dimensions: emotional, external and restricted eating. There is a high degree of stability for each of these three eating behavior scales. Items on the DEBQ range from 1 (never) to 5 (very often), with higher scores indicating greater endorsement of the eating behavior.

Baseline, 6-month, 12-month
Food Security Questionnaire
Tidsramme: Baseline only

The Food Security Questionnaire will be used to evaluate the availability of nutritious and safe foods for participants and their households at all times. The questionnaire will assess the household's ability to meet their food needs and will determine their placement on a food security continuum based on their responses to a series of questions. Researchers will analyze how food security impacts the relationships between different study arms and the outcomes.

Baseline only
Changes in Health and Lifestyle.
Tidsramme: 6-month, 12-month

Changes in health, medication, diet, and exercise among participants will be assessed via routine questionnaires administered at specific study time points (e.g., 6 and 12 months). The study team will monitor reported changes on an ongoing basis. Any data indicating potential new exclusion criteria (e.g., a diagnosis of cancer or other serious conditions) will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If the data meet the criteria for New Reportable Information (NRI), such as adverse events or single-subject exemptions, the appropriate reporting procedures will be followed according to IRB guidelines.
