Youth spend substantial time on social media, which can foster self-critical processes that increase risk of body dissatisfaction, disordered eating, and depressed mood. To date, there have been few investigations of interventions to decrease the negative impacts of social media engagement in adolescent boys and girls. This paper outlines the protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a four-lesson social media literacy program that was developed based on pilot results and aims to decrease body dissatisfaction, dietary restraint, and strategies to increase muscles. The RCT will be conducted with grades 7-8 students from Australian secondary schools. Using block randomization, grade levels within schools will be assigned to either the SoMe program (intervention) or health lessons as usual (control). Primary outcomes will be body satisfaction, dietary restraint, and strategies to increase muscles. Secondary outcomes will be self-esteem and depressed mood. Participants will complete assessments on four occasions - baseline, five-weeks post-baseline, and six- and 12-month post-baseline. Analyses will compare outcomes in the intervention compared to the control group. This study will be the first to implement a RCT design to evaluate the impact of a school-based social media literacy program designed to mitigate negative impacts of social media.
年轻人在社交媒体上花费大量时间，这可能会助长自我批判的过程，增加对身体不满、饮食失调和情绪低落的风险。迄今为止，很少有研究调查干预措施，以减少社交媒体参与对青少年男孩和女孩的负面影响。本文概述了一项基于试点结果开发的四节社交媒体素养课程的群组随机对照试验 (RCT) 的方案，旨在减少身体不满、饮食限制和增加肌肉的策略。该 RCT 将在澳大利亚中学的 7-8 年级学生中进行。使用分组随机化，学校内的年级将被分配到社交媒体课程（干预组）或常规健康课程（对照组）。主要结果将是身体满意度、饮食限制和增加肌肉的策略。次要结果将是自尊和情绪低落。参与者将在四个时间点完成评估 - 基线、基线后五周、基线后六个月和十二个月。分析将比较干预组与对照组的结果。这项研究将是第一个实施 RCT 设计来评估基于学校的社交媒体素养计划对减轻社交媒体负面影响的影响。
