Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Students, trainers (with more than 20 % employment status) and leaders at elite sport high schools and regular high schools in Norway will answer a questionnaire at two measurement points. Additionally, a sample of randomly selected students who report experiences with sexual harassment, and a random sample of trainers and leaders, will be invited to participate in an individual in-depth interview. Students scoring above cut-off on the questionnaire measuring symptoms of eating disorders (EDE-q) will be invited to a separate diagnostic interview (EDE).
A group of students will also participate in a test-retest examination of the reliability of the questionnaire.
