Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aims of the current study are: 1) to pilot a manualized intervention (INSPIRE - Inspiring Nutritious Selections and Positive Intentions Regarding Eating and Exercise) to determine feasibility and acceptability, and 2) to evaluate the preliminary effectiveness of INSPIRE on physical and psychological variables.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of the current study is to implement an evidence-based prevention program to promote positive health behaviors among young adult women. It will be one of the first to intentionally execute a prevention program targeting well-established risk factors for both obesity and eating disorders in this high-risk population. Intervention content focuses on promoting body size diversity and emphasizing positive health and behavior change in order to reduce stigmatization and remain sensitive to weight-related issues. The manual was developed by integrating two successful existing prevention programs and expanding on previous prevention efforts. Specifically, the diversity of beauty ideals were highlighted to enhance relevance among ethnic minority women, and distress tolerance and emotion regulation skills training were included to target the maladaptive coping mechanisms young adults use to manage the stress associated with transitioning to college.

INSPIRE

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

INSPIRE

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Eight week program of weekly group sessions with homework assignments addressing beauty ideals, establishing a healthy relationship with food and exercise, and tolerating and managing uncomfortable emotions. Participants will complete questionnaires are separate time points (one week before the program, one week after the program, and 1 month after the program) to evaluate the impact of the program on various behavioral and psychological outcomes.
