Experimental test of the affect-regulation theory of bulimic symptoms and substance use: A randomized trial

Article Abstract:

A randomized trial was conducted to test whether a cognitive behavioral intervention designed to decrease depressive symptoms produces subsequent decreases in bulimic and substance use symptoms. Compared to the waitlist control condition the intervention produced short-term reductions in bulimic symptoms but not substance use providing support for the affect-regulation theory of bulimic pathology but little support for the notion that substance use is rooted in affective disturbance.
