AAQ-W info

Submitted by michael parish on November 30, 2009 - 1:41pm.

Is there any practical way to obtain the validation study and any other helpful explanatory literature? I work with Bariatric Surgery patients and am curious how this istrument may be helpful as part of a presurgical evaluation, and any post surgery psych support in adjustment issues.

I've just uploaded the article and linked to Jason's contact information. He should be able to provide some consultation on the measure's use.

Best,

You will find that information recently attached to this page. You must be logged in (and a current paid ACBS member) but it's available for download. Best of luck!
