A good fit: Health-oriented size acceptance and Australian dietetic practice

(2021) A good fit: Health-oriented size acceptance and Australian dietetic practice. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis explored the suitability of health-oriented, size-accepting approaches for use in Australian dietetics counselling with weight-concerned adults. Across three studies, this work established that such an approach has an acceptable evidence base to drive Australian dietetics practice and may be a superior method to support higher dietary quality and lower eating disorder risk when compared with weight-centric approaches.
