This research evaluates the efficacy of a classroom-based intervention – Body Talk in the Digital Age (BTIDA) – in reducing adolescents’ appearance commentary and improving body image. British adolescents (N = 314; Age Range = 12–14) were cluster randomised to intervention or waiting-list control groups. Measures of appearance commentary, appearance ideal internalisation, self-objectification and body satisfaction were completed at baseline (T1), then one-week (T2) and eight-week (T3) post-intervention. Multi-level modelling showed girls who received BTIDA reported less appearance commentary engagement and thin ideal internalisation at T2 and T3, than the control, supporting the partial efficacy of BTIDA for girls. No intervention effects were found among boys.

这项研究评估了基于课堂的干预措施——数字时代的身体谈话 (BTIDA) ——在减少青少年的外表评论和改善身体形象方面的功效。英国青少年（N  = 314；年龄 范围 = 12-14）被随机分组​​到干预组或等待名单对照组。在基线 (T1)、干预后一周 (T2) 和八周 (T3) 完成外观评论、外观理想内化、自我客观化和身体满意度的测量。多层次模型显示，与对照组相比，接受BTIDA 的女孩在 T2 和 T3 报告较少的外表评论参与度和理想的内化程度较低，支持BTIDA的部分功效对于女孩。在男孩中没有发现干预效果。
