| Abstract: | Examines eating- and weight-related cognitions of 55 adolescents attending a camp for children with a variety of chronic diseases. Cognitions of youngsters with special dietary recommendations showed greater flexibility, less eating pathology, and less weight concern than campers without recommended diets. Contrary to previous reports, dietary restrictions were associated with more appropriate eating cognitions. (Author/GCP) |
