ABSTRACT

Obesity is associated with psychical disease and impacts on psychological well-being. Obesity is mainly caused by the excess in calories taken. Previous research shows the effect of interventions on compliance with a diet. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an intervention based on Premack’s principle, social reinforcement and self-managment on compliance with a diet of an adult with obesity. The procedure consisted of four phases: Baseline, Premack’s principle, social reinforcement and self-managment. The amount of food consumed not included in the diet decreases during the intervention phases compared to the Baseline phases. The greatest decrease occurred during the Premack’s principle. The results of the present study contribute to the literature on effective interventions for compliance with a diet in obese adults.
