Sponsor's own description
Body image concerns are pervasive and can impact multiple aspects of a person's life. Individuals with negative body image tend to have negative thoughts and feelings about their bodies, often resulting in unhealthy behaviours. Negative body image is also associated with mental and physical health conditions. Thus, prevention efforts are crucial to alleviating body image concerns in young adults as they are considered high-risk populations. This study is a randomised controlled trial that aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a self-guided body image program on a mobile-based application for young adults. Hypothesis 1a: The intervention group will improve significantly on measures of body image at post-intervention and follow-up, as compared to the control group. Hypothesis 1b: The intervention group will reduce significantly on measures of appearance-ideal internalization, media and peer pressures at post-intervention and follow-up, as compared to the control group. Hypothesis 2: The intervention group will improve significantly on the measure of self-compassion at post intervention and follow-up, as compared to the control group.
