Unfortunately, less than half of those with eating disorders receive treatment, which can be very expensive. Thus, effective prevention has\u003cbr\u003ebecome a major public health priority. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Body Project\u003c\/em\u003e is an empirically based eating disorder prevention program that offers young women an opportunity to critically consider the costs of pursuing the ultra-thin ideal promoted in the mass media, which improves body acceptance and reduces risk for developing eating disorders. Young\u003cbr\u003ewomen with elevated body dissatisfaction are recruited for group sessions in which they participate in a series of verbal, written, and behavioral exercises in which they consider the negative effects of pursuing the thin-ideal. Chapters provide information on the significance of body image and\u003cbr\u003eeating disorders, the intervention theory, the evidence base which supports the theory, recruitment and training procedures, solutions to common challenges, and a new program aimed at reducing obesity onset, as well as intervention scripts and participant handouts. \u003cem\u003eThe Body Project\u003c\/em\u003e is the only\u003cbr\u003ecurrently available eating disorder prevention program that has been shown to reduce risk for onset of eating disorders and received support in trials conducted by several independent research groups. The group sessions are brief and fun to lead, and this guide provides all of the necessary\u003cbr\u003einformation to walk clinicians, teachers, counselors, and volunteers through leading the program for vulnerable young women.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eric Stice, Paul Rohde, Heather Shaw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199859245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEric Stice, Ph.D., \u003c\/strong\u003eis a Senior Research Scientist at Oregon Research Institute.
