چکیده

Main results 20 participants did not complete the study. Intention-totreat analysis found that either self-help intervention increased response rate compared with control. However, results did not reach statistical significance, perhaps due to a lack of study power (response rate: 54% with cognitive behaviour manual; 50% with unguided self-help manual; 31% with control; p=0.10 for cognitive behaviour manual v control; p=0.08 for unguided self-help manual v control). Conclusions Self-help manuals may benefit people with bulimia nervosa.
