虽然女生联谊会经常被认为是导致饮食失调行为的原因,但有限的研究调查了女生联谊会成员的饮食失调。本研究的目的是调查一个高度互动的认知失调预防计划在减少经验支持的风险因素在联谊会成员的效用。成员(N = 149)被随机分配到高度互动的干预,更被动的干预,或等待名单。结果表明,这两种干预措施减少了饮食限制,身体不满,饮食失调的病理。只有高互动组减少瘦理想的内化相比,等待名单。探索性分析还表明,干预措施对低风险和高风险成员都有好处。总之,结果表明,姐妹会是一个可行的人口目标,在预防饮食失调。
Although sororities are often perceived as contributing to eating-disordered behavior, limited research has investigated eating disorders in sorority members. The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of a highly interactive cognitive dissonance prevention program in reducing empirically supported risk factors in sorority members. Members (N = 149) were randomized to the highly interactive intervention, a more passive intervention, or wait-list. Results indicated that both interventions reduced dietary restraint, body dissatisfaction, and eating disorder pathology. Only the highly interactive group reduced thin-ideal internalization as compared to wait-list. Exploratory analyses also indicated that interventions were beneficial to both lower- and higher-risk members. Taken together, results suggest that sororities are a viable population to target in the prevention of eating disorders.
