The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a body image dissatisfaction prevention session that provided information on body image and media literacy to college women. Participants were 81 undergraduates who were randomly assigned to attend either a body image intervention or a control intervention. Participants completed measures at pre- and post-intervention and at 4-week follow-up. The body image group improved significantly more than the control group on body shape concerns, but not on the other outcome variables. Efficacious interventions capable of reaching large numbers of women are necessary to help dispel the "normative discontent" prevalent today.
本研究的目的是评估一场身体意象不满预防课程的效果,该课程向大学女生提供了有关身体意象和媒体素养的信息。参与者为81名本科生,他们被随机分配参加身体意象干预或对照干预。参与者在干预前、干预后以及4周随访时完成各项测量。身体意象组在体型担忧方面的改善显著大于对照组,但在其他结果变量上并非如此。有必要开展能够惠及大量女性的有效干预措施,以帮助消除当今普遍存在的“规范性不满”。
