Modified cue exposure for adolescents with binge eating behaviour: study protocol of a randomised pilot trial called EXIT.

Introduction: Binge eating (BE) behaviour is highly prevalent in adolescents, and can result in serious metabolic derangements and overweight in the long term. Weakened functioning of the behavioural inhibition system is one potential pathway leading to BE. Food cue exposure focusing on expectancy violation (CE) is a short intervention for BE that has proven effective in adults but has never been tested in adolescents.

Mindfulness-based and cognitive-based stress prevention in student teachers (start): study protocol of a randomised controlled trial.

Introduction: Teachers and student teachers in Germany are a high-risk population for stress and stress-related mental health problems. This often leads to early retirement in subsequent professional life. Various trials have demonstrated positive effects of stress prevention training on the perceived stress and stress-related symptoms of teachers.
