Brief summary
The Effect of Motivational Interviewing on Anthropometric Measurements, Eating Attitudes, and Cardiometabolic Index in Overweight and Obese Patients
Detailed description
Participants were randomly assigned into two groups-an Intervention Group (n = 40) and a Control Group (n = 40)-using block randomization through the website random.org. Data were collected using a Personal Information Form, the Eating Behavior Disorder Scale, Anthropometric Measurements (body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, waist/hip ratio), and the Cardiometabolic Index. Both groups received routine recommendations, which included a daily caloric restriction of 500 kcal and moderate-intensity aerobic exercise for 30 minutes, five days a week.Motivational interviewing was administered to the intervention group through individual sessions, held once every two weeks, for a total of four sessions, each lasting 15 minutes. The interviews were conducted in the Education Room of the Saltuklu Family Health Center. After the motivational interviewing intervention was completed, post-tests (Eating Behavior Disorder Scale, Anthropometric Measurements, and Cardiometabolic Index) were administered to both groups. All participants were followed for a period of three months.
Interventions
A calorie-restricted diet was implemented in both the intervention and control groups.
motivational interviewing four times
A moderate-intensity aerobic exercise program, consisting of 30-minute sessions five days per week, was implemented in both groups
