Virtual Health Focused Acceptance-Based Program for Parents and Youth

The literature regarding the efficacy of web-based platforms for behavioral weight management interventions in pediatric populations continues to grow. Considering the continued increase in technology and internet use among youth, web-based interventions have the potential to serve as a more cost-effective and personalized approach to pediatric behavioral weight management. Extant research supports this consideration. More research that compares web-based vs. traditional delivery of acceptance-based pediatric behavioral weight management interventions is necessary to understand the utility of this platform as well as which aspects are most effective.
