NCT07422571
The purpose of this study is to learn if a novel online single-session intervention can help improve body dissatisfaction in new moms. The active intervention condition, Body Acceptance After Baby (BABI), uses acceptance-based skills to help participants cope with body dissatisfaction. BABI will be evaluated against another active intervention condition (a brief infographic that provides psychoeducation about body image during postpartum) and a waitlist control condition.
NCT06659354
The investigators aim to conduct a feasibility randomized controlled trial (RCT) of an eating disorder prevention program (The Body Project, adapted for pregnancy) versus a health education control among pregnant individuals with histories of an ED. The investigators will test the feasibility, implementation outcomes, and its preliminary effectiveness in reducing the risk of elevated disordered eating and body dissatisfaction during pregnancy and postpartum.
NCT06385457
In a two-armed randomized controlled trial 15-25-year-olds will be recruited via social media to evaluate the effectiveness of Mindhelper.dk; a Danish self-guided, digital, mental health service offering information, self-help tools, and guidance to young people. Participants will be randomly allocated to an intervention group (receiving information about Mindhelper.dk) or a control group (no information about Mindhelper.dk). Outcomes, including well-being (WHO5), psychological functioning (SWEMWBS), help-seeking intentions, and body appreciation (2-item BAS-2SF), will be measured at 2-, 6-, and 12-weeks post-randomization and analyzed using the intention-to-treat approach. Qualitative interviews with intervention group participants will provide complementary insights, and a cost-effectiveness analysis will also be conducted.

Study Objectives: 1. Examine whether singing can be used as a cognitive defusion strategy to change one's appraisals of body-related thoughts so they are less threatening to the individual. 2. Explore whether this technique can change the appraisals of one's body (i.e. increasing body satisfaction, increasing body esteem, decreasing the drive towards thinness), as well as increase mood and self-esteem. 3. Compare singing to the defusion strategy of verbal repetition, as well as control conditions, to determine the effectiveness of these techniques. 4. Examine whether defusion techniques would be particularly beneficial for individuals with high thought-shape fusion Study Hypotheses: The primary hypothesis was that the cognitive defusion conditions, namely verbal repetition and singing, would foster greater detachment (i.e. defusion) from negative body-related thoughts and change thought appraisals such that these thoughts were less believable and less negative, and the individual was more willing, less likely to avoid, and less uncomfortable when engaging with these thoughts than the control conditions. Secondary hypotheses propose that these defusion techniques will reduce negative body-related cognitions such as body image distress, drive for thinness, and body dissatisfaction to a greater extent than the control conditions. Moreover, compared to the control condition, these techniques are expected to be superior in reducing negative mood and improving self-esteem. Finally, better outcomes are expected from those in the defusion conditions who practice the technique as instructed (i.e. better homework adherence). Due to the novelty of this intervention, no specific hypotheses have been made regarding whether singing will equal or differ from verbal repetition on the aforementioned outcome measures. Moreover, due to the exploratory nature of applying defusion techniques with individuals with thought-shape fusion, no specific hypotheses have been made around anticipated changes in the perception of the thought, body image satisfaction, mood, self-esteem, and cognitive defusion within this population.
