"Predictive Models of the Morphological Evolution of the Human Body to Improve Adherence and Motivation in Dietetic-nutritional Treatments of Overweight and Obesity [Modelos Predictivos de Evolución Corporal Para Mejorar la Adherencia en Tratamientos de Sobrepeso y Obesidad]"

Over a 6-month period, the experimental group received nutritional recommendations based on the Mediterranean Diet from the nutritionist. In each session, the participant went through the 4D body modelling machine, which captures the morphological changes of each participant over time. The experimental group observed the changes in their bodies through immersive virtual reality goggles. After visualising their bodies, all participants in the experimental group completed a questionnaire designed to assess their perception of body image. Personal and sociodemographic data, clinical information, general health status, anthropometric, nutritional, and lifestyle data, as well as psychological and neuropsychological variables, were collected at two time points: at the beginning (pre-test measures) and at the end of the intervention (post-test measures).

Over a 6-month period, the control group received nutritional recommendations based on the Mediterranean Diet from the nutritionist. In each session, the participant went through the 4D modelling machine, which captures the morphological changes of each individual over time. The control group did not visualise these morphological changes through the virtual reality goggles. Personal and sociodemographic data, clinical information, general health status, anthropometric, nutritional, and lifestyle data, as well as psychological and neuropsychological variables, were collected at two time points: at the beginning (pre-test measures) and at the end of the intervention (post-test measures).
