The LEPS has been conducting a study on the relationship with the body - RECORPS - for several years, in partnership with the University of Reims and the association Le Regard du Miroir. Having established the constructs of the future questionnaire on the relationship to the body via a DELPHI, we are now moving on to its validation phase. It will be distributed in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Quebec until September 20, 2023.

Dear Madam / Dear Sir,
You are currently being treated for obesity and we need your help.
I'm writing to you today to ask you to take part in a European study involving the completion of completely anonymous online questionnaires.
The aim of this study is to develop a tool that will enable us to take into account patients' relationship with their bodies during their treatment. Your contribution is important so that researchers and healthcare professionals can offer patients a coherent tool that can be used in practice.
