Weight-based oppression, including negative attitudes about body weight, and harassment, stigma, and discrimination based on body weight, is a widespread phenomenon that leads to considerable distress and poor health and wellbeing outcomes. Conversely, body positivity is a multi-faceted concept that encompasses body acceptance, body appreciation, and body love, and adaptive approaches protective of health and wellbeing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of a brief health promotion activity informed by Health at Every Size® and critical health promotion principles on body positivity and internalized weight-based oppression in female students at Qatar University. A quasi-experimental mixed methods pre-post evaluation design was used, with quantitative assessment of body positivity and internalized weight-based oppression before the activity, immediately afterwards, and 10 weeks later, and qualitative assessment at the 10-week follow up. Measures used were the Body Appreciation Scale 2, Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale, Fat Attitudes Assessment Toolkit Size Acceptance and Self Reflection on Body Acceptance subscales, and an open-ended questionnaire. Body acceptance and appreciation increased significantly after the activity. Qualitative results suggest that these improvements were sustained at follow up. Brief Health at Every Size® informed health promotion activities show potential to improve health and wellbeing.

基于体重的压迫，包括对体重的消极态度以及基于体重的骚扰，污名和歧视，是一种普遍现象，导致相当大的困扰，不良的健康和福祉。相反，身体积极性是一个多方面的概念，包括对身体的接受，对身体的欣赏和对身体的爱，以及适应健康和福祉的适应性方法。这项研究的目的是评估卡塔尔大学女学生的一次健康促进活动，该活动以“ EverythingSize®”为基础，并采用了重要的健康促进原则，对女性的身体积极性和基于体重的内在压迫产生了影响。准实验混合方法采用事后评估设计，在运动前，运动后和运动后10周进行定量的身体阳性和内在的基于体重的压迫评估，并在10周的随访中进行定性评估。所使用的度量标准是身体欣赏量表2，修正的体重偏向内化量表，脂肪态度评估工具包大小接受度和对身体接受度的自我反省量表，以及不限成员名额的调查表。活动结束后，身体的接受度和欣赏度显着提高。定性结果表明，这些改善在随访中得以维持。各种规模的简短健康®知情健康促进活动显示出改善健康状况的潜力。修改后的体重偏向内化量表，脂肪态度评估工具包大小接受度和对身体接受程度的自我反省量表，以及一个开放式问卷。活动结束后，身体的接受度和欣赏度显着提高。定性结果表明，这些改善在随访中得以维持。各种规模的简短健康®知情健康促进活动显示出改善健康和福祉的潜力。修改后的体重偏向内化量表，脂肪态度评估工具包的接受程度和对身体接受程度的自我反映量表，以及一个开放式问卷。活动结束后，身体的接受度和欣赏度显着提高。定性结果表明，这些改善在随访中得以维持。各种规模的简短健康®知情健康促进活动显示出改善健康和福祉的潜力。
