This pilot study evaluated the acceptability and preliminary efficacy of a culturally adapted school-based body image intervention, Dove Confident Me, for use in urban India. Two private schools in New Delhi were randomly assigned at the school level to receive either the five-session intervention facilitated by trained psychologists or lessons-as-usual (control). Participants were Year 7 students (N = 166; Mage = 11.9 years). Students, facilitators, and observing teachers, provided acceptability feedback. Fidelity was assessed. Body image and related measures were completed by students in a classroom setting at pre-intervention, post-intervention, and two-month follow-up. Most students enjoyed (73.7 %) and understood (84.2 %) the intervention. Facilitators (90 %) and observing teachers (70 %) reported that the learning objectives were achieved. Adherence and facilitator competence were rated as very good. Body esteem improved significantly among intervention students at post-intervention and follow-up (Cohen's ds = .45-.46), relative to control students. Positive affect also improved at post-intervention (d = .58). No significant effects on internalisation, life engagement, eating pathology, self-esteem, or negative affect emerged. This study provides evidence for the acceptability and preliminary efficacy of Dove Confident Me in urban India. Intervention refinements to increase acceptability and efficacy are recommended.

印度城市以学校为基础的身体形象干预的可接受性和初步疗效：一项试点随机对照试验。

这项试点研究评估了适应文化的学校身体形象干预措施 Dove Confident Me 在印度城市使用的可接受性和初步效果。新德里的两所私立学校在学校层面被随机分配接受由训练有素的心理学家推动的五节课干预或照常上课（控制）。参与者是 7 年级学生（N = 166；法师 = 11.9 岁）。学生、辅导员和观察教师提供了可接受性反馈。保真度进行了评估。身体形象和相关测量由学生在干预前、干预后和两个月的随访中在课堂环境中完成。大多数学生喜欢 (73.7%) 并理解 (84.2%) 干预。辅导员 (90 %) 和观察教师 (70 %) 报告说已实现学习目标。依从性和辅导员能力被评为非常好。与对照组学生相比，干预学生在干预后和随访期间的身体自尊显着提高（Cohen's ds = .45-.46）。积极影响在干预后也有所改善 (d = .58)。对内化、生活投入、饮食病理、自尊或负面影响没有显着影响。这项研究为 Dove Confident Me 在印度城市的可接受性和初步有效性提供了证据。建议改进干预措施以提高可接受性和有效性。积极影响在干预后也有所改善 (d = .58)。对内化、生活投入、饮食病理、自尊或负面影响没有显着影响。这项研究为 Dove Confident Me 在印度城市的可接受性和初步有效性提供了证据。建议改进干预措施以提高可接受性和有效性。积极影响在干预后也有所改善 (d = .58)。对内化、生活投入、饮食病理、自尊或负面影响没有显着影响。这项研究为 Dove Confident Me 在印度城市的可接受性和初步有效性提供了证据。建议改进干预措施以提高可接受性和有效性。
