Sanal Beden Projesinin Türkçe formunun etkililiğinin üniversiteli Türk öğrencilerinin oluşturduğu bir örneklemde Randomize Kontrollü Çalışma kullanılarak değerlendirilmesi

Bu çalışmada, Sanal Beden Projesi’nin genç kadınlardaki olumsuz yeme tutumları, psikolojik belirtiler ve özsaygı düzeyi üzerindeki etkililiğinin test edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada, öntest-sontest kontrol gruplu desen kullanılmıştır. Müdahale grubu (Sanal Beden Projesi Grubu, N = 40) ve plasebo grubu (Dışavurumcu Yazı Grubu, N = 33) seçkisiz atama yöntemiyle oluşturulmuştur. Katılımcılara, Beden Kitle İndeksi (BKİ), Kısa Semptom Envanteri (KSE), Yeme Bozukluğu İnceleme Ölçeği (YBİÖ), Beden İmgesinin Yaşam Niteliğine Etkisi Ölçeği (BİYNEÖ) ve Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği (RBSÖ) uygulanmıştır. Müdahale grubu ve plasebo grubu, öntest puanları açısından anlamlı farklılıklar göstermemiştir. Öte yandan, KSE, YBİÖ, BİYNEÖ ölçümlerine ilişkin sontest puanları müdahale grubunda plasebo grubuna göre daha düşük bulunurken, RBSÖ sontest puanları müdahale grubunda daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Grup içi karşılaştırmalar, plasebo grubunda öntest ve sontest puanlarının anlamlı düzeyde farklılaşmadığını göstermiştir. Bununla birlikte, müdahale grubunda KSE, YBİÖ ve BİYNEÖ son test skorları, öntest skorlarından anlamlı düzeyde daha düşük bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, RBSÖ sontest skorları öntest skorlarına göre daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Mevcut çalışma, Sanal Beden Projesi’nin, genç kadınlarda olumsuz yeme tutumları, psikolojik belirtiler ve benlik saygısı üzerinde etkili bir müdahale olduğunu göstermiştir. Çevrim içi olarak gruplara uygulanan Sanal Beden Projesi’nin koruyucu ruh sağlığı çalışmaları için son derece önemli bir katkı sunduğu düşünülmektedir.

Testing the efficacy of the Virtual Body Project in a sample of Turkish female university students using a Randomized Controlled Trial

The current study aimed to test the effectiveness of the Virtual Body Project (vBP) on self-esteem, disordered eating attitudes, and psychological symptoms in young females. A pretest posttest control group design was used in the study. The intervention (vBP, N = 40) and placebo (Expressive Writing, N=33) groups were determined using random assignment. The Body Mass Index (BMI), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI), Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q), Body Image Quality of Life (BIQLI), and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) were administered. The groups did not differ in terms of pretest scores. However, the intervention group had significantly lower EDE-Q, BIQLI, BSI scores, and higher RSES scores than the placebo group in the post-test assessment. Within-subjects comparisons showed that the placebo group’s pretest and post-test scores were not significantly different. However, the EDE-Q, BIQLI, and BSI posttest scores were found to be significantly lower than the pretest scores in the intervention group. In addition, the RSES post-test scores were significantly higher than the RSES pretest scores in the intervention group. The current study indicated that the Virtual Body Project was found to be an effective intervention on eating disorder risk factors, psychological symptoms, and self-esteem in young females. It is thought that the Virtual Body Project, which is applied to groups online, makes an extremely important contribution to preventive mental health studies.
