Predictors of early response in conjoint and separated models of family-based treatment for adolescent anorexia nervosa.

Early response, as indicated by early weight gain, in family-based treatment (FBT) for adolescent anorexia nervosa (AN) predicts remission at end of treatment. However, little is known about what factors contribute to early response. Further, no previous studies have examined early response to separated forms of FBT.
