Eating disorders (ED) and body image (BI) concerns are becoming increasingly prevalent on college campuses. EDs impact one's mental, physical, social and academic functioning. Research has only recently begun looking into programs that address EDs and BI concerns among college students. This study examines the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of The Body Positive, an 8-week peer-led body image and eating disorder program.

520 $a Eating disorders (ED) and body image (BI) concerns are becoming increasingly prevalent on college campuses. EDs impact one's mental, physical, social and academic functioning. Research has only recently begun looking into programs that address EDs and BI concerns among college students. This study examines the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of The Body Positive, an 8-week peer-led body image and eating disorder program.
520 $a A total of five Body Positive groups were held at Stanford University, with 30 participants completing groups and 28 participants opting into the research study. Given that this study a pilot program and therefore was underpowered, effect sizes are reported for statistical analysis. The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether the program was feasible and acceptable to the participants. Secondary outcomes were assessed with ED and BI measures, including the Ideal Body Stereotype Scale-Revised (IBSS-R), Body Area Satisfaction Survey (BASS), Objectified Body Consciousness Scale (OBCS), Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q, 10 item version), Social Determinants of Body Image Scale (SDBIS), and Weight Concerns Scale (WCS).
520 $a Secondary outcomes were analyzed and separated based on group participants' level of disordered eating (DE) symptoms reported at baseline (BL). There were small to large effect sizes seen on a variety of measures at both BL to end of treatment (EOT) and from BL to 8-month follow up (8MFU). The results indicated that for those that endorsed DE symptoms at BL there was continued improvement on all measures from EOT to 8MFU. Exploratory analysis was also done looking into facilitator outcomes on ED and BI measures over time while leading groups.
520 $a Preliminary data suggests the potential efficacy of The Body Positive as a program that may help reduce certain risk factors, such as thin ideal, and help promote positive body image and other protective factors. Future research should be directed at a larger randomized wait-list control trial and look into the impact of separating groups, or targeting the intervention, based on DE symptoms of group participants. The Body Positive appears to be a feasible and acceptable program, with the potential to help combat rising rates of eating disorders on college campuses.
