这项研究测试了基于互联网的预防计划“走钢丝的麻烦：寻找滑板山姆”对青春期知识、身体自尊和自尊的功效。 190 名参与者（平均年龄 11.6 岁）被随机分配到干预组或注意力安慰剂对照组，并在基线、3 次基于互联网的会议后以及 3 个月的随访后进行评估。尽管主要假设没有得到支持，但探索性调节分析表明，干预措施对选定的学生是有益的。具体来说，青春期状态调节了对与体重相关的身体自尊和自尊的几个领域的影响，从而对已开始青春期的干预组参与者产生积极影响。在自尊分量表上发现了性别差异，表明对女孩的影响比男孩更强烈。根据性别和青春期状态等个人特征定制的互联网项目可能是未来青少年研究的一个富有成效的领域。 (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
This study tested the efficacy of an Internet-based prevention program, Trouble on the Tightrope: In Search of Skateboard Sam, on pubertal knowledge, body esteem, and self-esteem. One hundred and ninety participants (mean age 11.6 years) were randomized to either an intervention or attention placebo control condition and were assessed at baseline, after three Internet-based sessions, and at 3-month follow-up. Although the primary hypotheses were not supported, exploratory moderator analyses indicated that the intervention was beneficial for select students. Specifically, pubertal status moderated the effects on weight-related body esteem and several domains of self-esteem, resulting in positive effects for participants in the intervention group who had begun puberty. Gender differences were found on self-esteem subscales, indicating more robust effects for girls than boys. Tailored Internet programs based on personal characteristics such as gender and pubertal status may be a fruitful area for future research with adolescents. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
