Eating Disorders Prevention Programming May Be Failing: Evaluation of 2 One-Shot Programs.

Martz, Denise M.; Bazzini, Doris G.

Journal of College Student Development, v40 n1 p32-42 Jan-Feb 1999

Two studies (N=114; n=77) were conducted to evaluate the impact of one-shot interventions to prevent eating disorders. Results of the first study were positive but small. The second study showed minimal effects on dieting and body esteem at one-month follow-up. The overall utility of such programming is discussed. (Author/EMK)
