| Scientific title | Sociocultural factors and eating disorders in adolescence: evaluation of a school-based prevention program |
| Study acronym | POPS (Potsdamer prävention an schulen) |
| Study objectives | The participants of the prevention program show less symptoms of disordered eating and related risk factors 3 and 12 months after the program (compared to the control group). |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the ethics committee of the University of Potsdam on the 11th December 2006 (ref: 3/22). |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Eating disorders |
| Intervention | The participants who are randomised to the intervention group will receive the prevention program. Trained teachers will carry out 9 sessions of regular classes, 1 - 2 sessions a week, 45 minutes each. During the classes they will teach the participants about nutrition and well-being, media competency, self-esteem, problem solving, stress management, and dealing with appearance-related social pressure. Materials and methods include DVDs, games, discussions, quizzes, leaflets, questionnaires, homework and teamwork. The participants allocated to the control group do not receive any intervention. They will receive the same training on the program after the evaluation of the program based on this trial is completed. |
