Celebrandome: Preliminary Study

The Dove Self Esteem Project, has provided our research team with funding to develop a 60- minute workshop for Hispanic/Latinx Youth between the ages of 11 to 16 years old that builds body confidence. This workshop was developed based on prior curriculum the investigator has developed for The Dove Self Esteem Project and designed with two teachers and several adolescent children.

The aims of the current study are to: 1) examine the efficacy of the workshop, and 2.) evaluate the extent to which children like the curriculum and find it useful. Children will be randomized to control group or intervention group; however, the control group will eventually go through the workshop after 2 surveys. It is hypothesized that children in the intervention group will report higher body satisfaction scores, greater self- esteem, more awareness of body talk and less engagement in appearance comparisons relative to the control group. It is hypothesized that children will report liking the workshop, finding it useful and engaging.

Treatment and study plan

Celebrandome

Behavioral

This intervention is based on existing cognitive dissonance body confidence programs for youth such as Amazing Me, Free Being Me, and Body Project. Consistent with these programs, workshops are entirely experiential getting you to discuss appearance ideals and why they are problematic, pressures they experience to conform to appearance ideals, ways to combat pressures, they compare pictures that are normal versus digitally altered and discuss ways this is problematic, they discuss body talk statements they hear all the time and how this promotes appearance ideals, they practice ways to combat body talk statements. They develop positive affirmation statements. In addition and unique to this curriculum, all activities highlight cultural ideals and how youth can receive different messages related to different appearance ideals and they unique stress and pressures this creates.

Other names: Body Confidence Single Session
