Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to analyze and compare in female college women two prevention programs for eating disorders, the Spanish Version of the eBodyProject and a traditional/educational prevention program. The main question it aims to answer is:

• The Spanish Version of the eBodyProject (intervention group) is more effective to prevent the onset of eating disorders with college students than a traditional psychological and educational prevention program (control group).

Participants will have to complete two main phases: assessment (pre- prevention program) and conducting the eBodyProject or traditional prevention program. The duration of the program is 4 weeks.

If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare the Spanish eBodyProject Group with the traditional group to see and compare the effectiveness of each intervention arm.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Spanish version eBodyProject

The Spanish adaptation of the eBodyProject program will be modified (Stice et al., 2012b). This program consists of 4 modules adapted from the most recent version of the original program The Body Project, presented by the original authors who have given their consent and suggestions for the realization of the Spanish version. The activities proposed through the different modules will be in written format or behavioral activities aimed at criticizing the ideal of feminine beauty imposed by today's society and promoting self-acceptance.

BEHAVIORAL

Psychoeducationa Prevention Program

Participants in this group will receive a weekly newsletter with information about the beauty ideal, the costs of pursuing it, and tips for resisting the pressure to pursue this ideal, as well as tips for managing the emotions associated with it. However, they will not have to perform exercises related to this information, a psychoeducational intervention. Once the study is finished, these participants will receive an email again in case they are interested in taking part in the eBodyProject prevention program.
