      abstract = {<p>Background: Family-based treatment (FBT) is an  outpatient therapy, though FBT principles have been  incorporated in higher levels of care (e.g., partial  hospitalization programs, PHPs). It is unknown how  participation in a family-based PHP impacts weight  restoration and parental self-efficacy.</p> <p>Methods:  Weight gain and parental self-efficacy were examined in 98  participants with anorexia nervosa or atypical anorexia  nervosa during the first five weeks of participation in a  family-based PHP. Maternal self-efficacy was assessed using  the Parent versus Anorexia Scale.</p> <p>Results:  Significant increases in weight, percent expected body  weight (EBW), and maternal self-efficacy were observed,  with large effect sizes. During the first five weeks of  treatment, patients in the PHP gained an average of 4.5 kg,  or 8.3% EBW. Maternal self-efficacy improved within two  weeks of treatment.</p> <p>Conclusions: Findings suggest  that family-based PHPs may facilitate rapid weight  restoration without decreasing parental self-efficacy.  Randomized trials are needed to directly compare  family-based PHPs to outpatient FBT and PHPs with alternate  treatment approaches, including longer-term follow-up and  cost-effectiveness modeling.</p>},
