Based on our previous experience and on recent literature that claims for the inclusion of peers as co-adjuvant on the weight management tasks, we hypothesize that: a) a larger and more frequent contact with the treatment staff; and b) the inclusion of peers as co-adjuvant on the weight management tasks in the TOP is necessary. Indeed, literature shows that adolescent' health related behaviors are associated with peer behaviors, in what Dishion named Social Contagion (Dishion & Dodge, 2005). Additionally, we think that regular physical activity (PA) and interactive educative sessions can provide the background to promote these two factors (Fonseca et al, 2012).
