简要总结
The researchers conduct a randomised controlled trial to evaluate a social media-based intervention aimed at reducing body dissatisfaction among young Indonesian women between 15 and 19 years old.The intervention (titled Warna-Warni Waktu) consists of six sequential videos that tell a fictional story of a typical Indonesian young woman. The videos address known risk factors for body dissatisfaction and include evidence-based techniques to mitigate body dissatisfaction. In addition, the intervention encompasses 18 short online activities intended to encourage participants to think critically about the messages learnt in the videos and practice applying the lessons in real life.
The primary aim is to evaluate the short-term (immediate and four-week post) impact of the intervention on young Indonesian women. The primary outcome is trait body dissatisfaction. Secondary outcomes include internalisation of societal appearance ideals, mood, and skin shade satisfaction.
The second aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of the videos individually on eliciting state-based improvements (i.e., improvements in the moment) in body dissatisfaction and mood. This will be a within-group design, whereby only participants in the intervention condition complete single-item measures of body dissatisfaction and mood immediately before and after watching each episode. Further exploratory analyses are also planned.
Approximately 2000 young Indonesian women are recruited for this research project.
The study's hypotheses are as follows:
- Participants randomised to the intervention condition experience improved body satisfaction, mood, and skin shade satisfaction, and reduced internalisation of appearance ideals at post-intervention (1 day following the intervention), and 1 month follow-up, relative to the waitlist control condition.
- Each video in the Warna-Warni Waktu series elicits immediate state-based improvements in body satisfaction and mood.
- Greater engagement and adherence in the Warna-Warni Waktu intervention results in greater body satisfaction, mood, skin shade satisfaction, and reduced internalisation of appearance ideals. This analysis is exploratory in nature, depending on participants' engagement and adherence in the intervention during the trial.
详细描述
Background
There is a need for culturally-relevant, accessible, and scalable prevention efforts to reduce body dissatisfaction and improve positive body image among Indonesian girls. Currently, no body image interventions for this population exist.
Recruitment
Participants are recruited using a local research agency's database of previous research participants.
Previous participants over the age of 40 are contacted via telephone and screened regarding having a daughter within the eligible age range. If the respondent has more than one daughter in the age range, only one is eligible. If the respondent does not have a daughter between 15 and 19 years of age, the recruiter enquires if the respondent knows another family with a daughter of this age. If so, the recruiter requests the telephone number of that family in order to make contact. Only one phone number is requested per call.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in body esteem
时间窗: baseline; post-intervention (1 day after the intervention is complete); follow-up (4 weeks later)
Body esteem (body satisfaction) is assessed using the Body Esteem Scale for Adolescents \& Adults (Mendelson, Mendelson \& White, 2001), newly validated among Indonesian adolescents prior to the trial. Once the appropriate items are reverse coded, scores on all items are averaged; with higher scores indicating higher body esteem.
次要结局
- Change in internalisation of societal appearance ideals(baseline; post-intervention (1 day after the intervention is complete); follow-up (4 weeks later))
- Change in state mood(Immediately before and after watching each of the six intervention videos.)
- Change in skin shade satisfaction(baseline; post-intervention (1 day after the intervention is complete); follow-up (4 weeks later))
- Change in state body satisfaction(Immediately before and after watching each of the six intervention videos.)
- Change in mood(baseline; post-intervention (1 day after the intervention is complete); follow-up (4 weeks later))
