Abstract

Psychoeducation groups are an integral part of eating disorder treatment in community programs, yet research on their efficacy remains limited. This study examines the impact of participating in a 10-week psychoeducation group on changes in quality of life and in readiness and motivation. Seventy-five adults who had eating disorders were included in the study. We administered the Eating Disorder Quality of Life Scale (EDQLS) and Readiness and Motivation Questionnaire (RMQ) before and after the group. After participation, respondents reported an 11-point increase in the EDQLS score and 9-, 8-, and 9-point increases, respectively, in the total action, confidence, and internality components of the RMQ score. In group exit evaluations, participants reported that the psychoeducation group improved their quality of life and their readiness and motivation to recover.

参加饮食失调症心理教育小组后生活质量的提高和对改变的准备:试点研究。
心理教育小组是社区项目中饮食失调治疗不可或缺的一部分,但对其疗效的研究仍然有限。本研究探讨了参加为期 10 周的心理教育小组对生活质量、准备度和动机变化的影响。75 名患有饮食失调症的成年人参与了这项研究。我们在小组活动前后进行了饮食失调生活质量量表(EDQLS)和准备与动机问卷调查(RMQ)。参加小组活动后,受访者表示 EDQLS 分数提高了 11 分,RMQ 分数中的总行动、信心和内在性部分分别提高了 9 分、8 分和 9 分。在小组退出评估中,参与者表示心理教育小组提高了他们的生活质量,并改善了他们康复的意愿和动力。
