The primary goals of this pre-registered systematic review were to critically evaluate the existing randomized controlled trials targeting weight stigma/bias and identify promising avenues for future research.
Prior systematic reviews have highlighted intervention strategies such as shifting causal attributions of obesity, evoking empathy, deploying weight-inclusive approaches, increasing education, and combining these strategies. Here, we provide an updated systematic review of weight stigma interventions. A systematic search was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines and performed in PubMed/Medline, PubMed, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar until October 2024, yielding a final sample of 56 articles. In addition to previously established strategies, we identified several novel strategies, such as cognitive dissonance and connection building. Interventions can largely shift attitudinal outcomes, but future research should extend beyond attitude measures, assess weight bias over a longer term, and across more diverse populations.
本次预先注册的系统评价的主要目标是批判性地评估现有的针对体重羞辱/偏见的随机对照试验,并确定未来研究的有前景的途径。
先前的系统评价强调了一些干预策略,如改变对肥胖的因果归因、唤起同理心、采用体重包容的方法、增加教育以及结合这些策略。在此,我们提供了一份关于体重羞辱干预措施的更新的系统评价。按照PRISMA指南进行了系统检索,并在PubMed/Medline、PubMed、PsycINFO和谷歌学术上进行检索,直至2024年10月,最终得到56篇文章的样本。除了先前确定的策略外,我们还确定了几种新策略,如认知失调和建立联系。干预措施在很大程度上可以改变态度结果,但未来的研究应超越态度测量,在更长时间内评估体重偏见,并涵盖更多样化的人群。
