Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing harmful behaviours associated with emotion dysregulation, including non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and binge eating. It has been hypothesized that the effects of DBT on NSSI and binge eating are the result of improvements in emotion regulation (ER); however, the extent to which changes in ER account for reductions in these behaviours is unclear. The present study leverages two unique clinical samples to examine the...

CONCLUSION: The results indicated that both versions of the BSQ appeared suitable to screen for body-shape dissatisfaction among patients with binge-eating disorder.

CONCLUSIONS: Insights from participants highlighted the perceived importance of continued support for continued skill use after treatment ended. This study also provided valuable design implications regarding potential features focusing on facilitating posttreatment skill use to include in digital deterioration prevention programs. Future research should examine the optimal approaches to deliver the core features identified in this study that could lead to higher continued skill use and a lower...
