1 group of 6 overweight undergraduates received 6 sessions of covert sensitization. A 2nd similar group received 6 sessions of a realistic attention-control condition, while a 3rd group served as nontreated controls. At the end of treatment, covert sensitization Ss reporting the greatest reaction to the imagined scene showed greater weight loss than the attention-control and control groups. At a 6-wk follow-up, the treatment effect including all covert sensitization Ss was highly significant. Self-report measures indicate that covert sensitization Ss perceived their treatment positively and were highly motivated. Anxiety reduction and weight loss were found to be uncorrelated. Results offer considerable support for the efficacy of covert sensitization in the treatment of obesity.(29 ref.)(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
