Abstract

Objective: The Internet serves as a potentially effective method of treatment delivery through widespread education and interaction via synchronous Internet relay chat (IRC). The current study explores the feasibility of IRC in the delivery of an eating disorders prevention intervention. Method: This small pilot study describes the delivery of an efficacious eating disorder treatment using a novel medium. The on‐line sessions are based on cognitive‐behavioral treatment and are facilitated by a moderator. In addition to feasibility, preliminary evidence of acceptability and efficacy for an on‐line intervention with college‐aged women is reported. Results: Results indicate that IRC is an acceptable and feasible format for treatment delivery. In addition, descriptive and qualitative data suggest that this method of treatment delivery is potentially effective. Discussion: This pilot study provides increased knowledge of the viability of treatment delivery over the Internet, specifically, a psychoeducational IRC for eating disorder prevention. © 2001 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

  • The number of self-reported activities completed was found to correlate with outcomes in interventions that targeted cigarette smoking, weight management, and body dissatisfaction.

    “The number of self-reported activities completed (eg, completing a diary, engaging in online tests, or making forum posts) was found to correlate with outcomes in interventions that targeted cigarette smoking [42], weight management [39,40], and body dissatisfaction [43,44].”
  • Adolescents' perceived helpfulness was measured using the Ratings of Perceived Helpfulness in Behavior Change, which was adapted from an Internet intervention for eating disorders and previously described.

    “We report data on adolescents’ perceived helpfulness based on the Ratings of Perceived Helpfulness in Behavior Change, adapted from an Internet intervention for eating disorders and has been previously described.25,50”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
