AB  - Based on our experience with cognitive remediation for anorexia nervosa inpatients and with multifamily therapy for eating disorders, we have developed a family-based cognitive remediation program. It targets the main cognitive deficits of these patients, mainly the weak central coherence and set shifting deficiency. Eight families participated in our pilot study, including parents and daughters with anorexia nervosa. Our aim was to assess feasibility and acceptability of the intervention. We describe the first results of quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the program, and suggest modifications for future use.
