Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
After the online consent form is completed, participants will be automatically redirected to the study questionnaires in REDCap. Participants will complete a package of questionnaires pre- and post- intervention measuring demographic information, physical activity, knowledge of weight science, weight control beliefs, self-esteem, restrained eating, body appreciation, self-compassion for weight and shape and fear of self-compassion for weight and shape. Participants will complete the package of questionnaires prior to watching two educational videos embedded into the REDCap project, and then complete the same package of questionnaires again.
After watching the educational videos and completing the study questionnaires, participants will receive a copy of the debriefing form, which provides further information about the study purpose, independent and dependent variables, local mental health resources, and contact information for the LPI. The debriefing form will be emailed to participants via McMaster Outlook using the email encryption function. If participants do not complete the study questionnaires, the debriefing form will be sent to participants after their study time slot has closed.
The data will be collected and stored through the secure online data collection platform REDCap, which is managed by St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton. REDCap is a secure, encrypted data collection platform that requires two-factor authentication for access to study data. REDCap is located within the secure internal SJHH network, and is protected by firewall software (Checkpoint software).

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Weight Science + Healthy Eating Education
In this condition participants will watch two educational videos on the topics of weight science, and healthy eating. The videos were created by a registered psychologist and are each between 20 and 30 minutes in length.
Weight Science Educational Video
Educational videos on the topic of weight science created by a registered clinical psychologist.
Healthy Eating Educational Video

Weight Science + Healthy Sleep Education
In this condition participants will watch two educational videos on the topics of weight science, and healthy sleep. The videos were created by a registered psychologist and are each between 20 and 30 minutes in length.
We are interested in the effect of weight science education alone, the healthy sleep video was added as an active control so that each condition was watching the same amount of videos.
