Hightlights
During this 2016 we have achieved several milestones:
• The European project MEAL has successfully ended (Modifying eating attitudes and actions through
learning; 531229-LLP-2012-UK-KA3-KA3MP). This project had as objective the development and validation of a tool to train nutritionists and school teachers providing them with nutritional skills in order to use them with 9 to 12-year-old kids. Last July the student Alejandro Domínguez-Rodríguez defended his PhD thesis entitled “Design, development and validation of an online platform addressed to teachers and nutritionists to provide nutritional education to children: MEAL”.
• The project “Vivir mejor” (trial: NCT02445833) has finished. Its objective was the development and validation of a self-applied treatment through the Internet in order to change the life style and weigh loss among obese hypertensive adults. Results were very promising, detecting anthropometric changes at the end of the program, and even some improvement at one year follow-up.
• The ACTIOVE Project has finished (New technologies and promotion of the physical activity among children: variables that influence at adherence and its potential in the treatment of children obesity PSI2011-25767).
• The ETIOBE Project (PSI2008-04392) has resulted in the publication of self-records data on children’s habits through a very innovative mathematical methodology, altogether with Professor Emilio Soria.
• We have kept working with the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) altogether with Professor Tatjana Van Strien, with a validation study in a Dutch normative sample.
• The “Mindful eating” (Comer atento) project has finished, in collaboration with the Basque Culinary Cente, at Donostia. The objective of this project was to develop a research to validate the effect of eating in an attentive way, when selecting food.
