| Sumario: | "This facilitator’s guide is the first manual in the new branch of the successful Treatments That Work series called Programs That Work. Statistics show that 90 % of the millions of Americans diagnosed with eating disorders annually are adolescent and young women. This prevention program was designed with them in mind. The Body Project is a cognitive-dissonance– based body-acceptance intervention for use in group therapy. This time-limited group treatment has proven effective in helping adolescent girls and young women resist sociocultural pressures to conform to the thin ideal and reduce their pursuit of thinness. The result of 16 years of research, the Body Project has been found to reduce thin-ideal internalization, body dissatisfaction, negative mood, unhealthy dieting, and eating disorder symptoms in adolescent girls and young women with body image concerns. This intervention has also been found to reduce the risk for future onset of eating disorder symptoms." - page vi. 1. Introductory Information for Facilitators. 2. Session 1. 3. Session 2. 4.
