ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2012.6866 | Abstract: | Context: Given the obesity epidemic, effective but resource-efficient weight loss treatments are needed. Stepped-treatment approaches customize interventions based on milestone completion and can be more effective while costing less to administer than conventional treatment approaches. Objective: To determine whether a stepped-care weight loss intervention (STEP) compared with a standard behavioral weight loss intervention (SBWI) would result in greater weight loss. Design, Setting, and Participants: A randomized clinical trial of 363 overweight and obese adults (body mass index: 25- | Source Title: | JAMA - Journal of the American Medical Association | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/126483 | ISSN: | 00987484 | DOI: | 10.1001/jama.2012.6866 |
