Abstract

Although many women experience body dissatisfaction, treatment options that prevent the onset of more serious conditions are limited in accessibility. As such, digital interventions may be an appropriate alternative resource to address restricted treatment options. This study provides statistical syntheses of the evidence for digital body image interventions for non-clinical adult women. A systematic literature search identified 19 studies (N = 2424) that tested the effect of a digital body image intervention compared to a control condition. Study results were synthesised using random effects models, and small to medium statistically significant effect sizes indicated that digital interventions were beneficial in increasing overall global satisfaction (g = 0.43) and reducing cognitive body dissatisfaction (g = 0.36). These meta-analytic findings provide evidence for the efficacy of digital body image interventions for non-clinical adult women. Intervention type was not found to be a statistically significant moderator, which may suggest that a range of intervention types can produce similar reductions in body dissatisfaction. Overall, digital body image interventions may be a feasible option to alleviate body dissatisfaction, particularly for women who may be unable to access conventional treatment.

针对成年女性的数字化身体形象干预:荟萃分析综述。
尽管许多女性都有对身体不满意的经历,但能够预防更严重疾病发生的治疗方案却很有限。因此,数字化干预可能是解决治疗选择受限问题的适当替代资源。本研究对针对非临床成年女性的数字化身体形象干预措施的证据进行了统计综合。通过系统性文献检索,确定了 19 项研究(N = 2424),这些研究测试了数字化身体形象干预与对照条件相比的效果。使用随机效应模型对研究结果进行了综合分析,结果显示,小到中等统计学意义的效应大小表明,数字化干预措施有利于提高整体满意度(g = 0.43)和降低认知上的身体不满意度(g = 0.36)。这些荟萃分析结果为针对非临床成年女性的数字化身体形象干预措施的有效性提供了证据。干预类型在统计学上并不是一个显著的调节因素,这可能表明各种干预类型都能产生类似的身体不满意度降低效果。总的来说,数字化身体形象干预可能是缓解身体不满意度的一个可行选择,尤其是对于那些可能无法获得常规治疗的女性来说。

期刊介绍: Body Image is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality, scientific articles on body image and human physical appearance. Body Image is a multi-faceted concept that refers to persons perceptions and attitudes about their own body, particularly but not exclusively its appearance. The journal invites contributions from a broad range of disciplines-psychological science, other social and behavioral sciences, and medical and health sciences. The journal publishes original research articles, brief research reports, theoretical and review papers, and science-based practitioner reports of interest. Dissertation abstracts are also published online, and the journal gives an annual award for the best doctoral dissertation in this field.
