520 3  For several years, the Food and Nutrition Board (FNB) of 
       the Institute of Medicine (IOM), National Academy of 
       Sciences (NAS) has wished to develop criteria that could 
       be used by others to evaluate the effectiveness of various
       approaches to preventing and treating the problems of 
       overweight and obesity. The NAS provided the FNB with 
       funding to conduct a 1-year study with the following 
       objectives: (1) Identify direct measurements of outcomes 
       of obesity treatment and prevention programs as well as 
       their priorities and special uses. (2) Identify program 
       characteristics that should be specified and measured in 
       program evaluation. (3) Identify appropriate uses of 
       indirect measurements of outcomes (especially risk of 
       specific diseases) of large-scale weight-loss programs. 
       (4) Identify characteristics that contribute to clients' 
       choices of programs and their outcomes with these 
       programs. (5) Identify the degree of weight loss needed to
       improve various health outcomes. (6) Where information 
       concerning these topics is limited, develop a specific 
       agenda for research. This book reports on the study 
       findings, resulting in the FNB's new criteria for 
       evaluating the effectiveness of programs to treat and 
       prevent obesity. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA,
