The research group’s goals are to 1) use several methods in their different studies (qualitative methods and complex methods as network analysis), 2) use different designs (intervention studies and follow-up studies) and 3) in different research discipline (epidemiology and psychotherapy research). Through these focus areas we want to investigate what leads to change (PR) and how this affect outcome (OU). We are interested in the whole spectre of eating disorder (D), both anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, atypical variants and binge eating disorder.
