“…The score differences between the two conditions (6.75 points of improvement in the experimental group vs. 0.75 points in the control condition, p = 0.000) are in line with what positive body image theory claims, i.e., that self-image satisfaction can be fostered (Tylka and Homan, 2015;Homan and Tylka, 2018). This experimental study is also coherent with other studies suggesting that tailored programs with specific scopes are better instruments than preventive interventions that are nonspecifically orientated (Roses-Gómez, 2014; Kilpela et al, 2015;Hudson et al, 2016;McCabe et al, 2017;Mellor et al, 2017;Bailey et al, 2019). Besides, our results also show the goodness of design of the IMAGINA program by Sánchez-Cabrero (2012) when used with participants over 50 years old.…”

“…As for intervention programs aimed at improving body image, the scientific literature shows that these produce outstanding results, from the classics of Cash (1997) and PICTA, Maganto et al (2002), to current ones, such as those of, Kilpela et al (2016), McCabe et al (2017), and Bailey et al (2019). However, none of them are intended for mature people, focusing instead on adolescent or young people, and mainly on the female population, except for the IMAGINA program by Sánchez-Cabrero (2012).…”

Improvement of Body Satisfaction in Older People: An Experimental Study

et al. 2019

Aging typically manifests itself in a variety of physical and cognitive alterations and challenges that are not always easily accepted. Feeling dissatisfied with these changes can also affect the mood and self-esteem of older people causing body image problems. The present study focuses on body satisfaction in Spanish older people (176 participants; M and SD = 64.03 ± 1 8.06; age range 50 to over 75) by employing experimental research to test whether psychosocial interventions may have a positive impact. Our aims are threefold: (1) To describe the body satisfaction of older people considering intervening variables, such as age, gender, having a stable partner, time of the year, and place of residence; (2) to compare body satisfaction improvement in older people participating in a specific body satisfaction program designed for this purpose versus a non-specific program run by the Spanish Red Cross; and (3) to examine the relationship between age, gender, having a stable partner, time of the year, place of residence, body satisfaction and participating in the experimental condition. The IMAGINA specific body image program yielded a significant improvement in body satisfaction when compared with the non-specific program in both men and women regardless of marital status and in some age groups: 50 to 54 years old, 60 to 64 years old, and 65 to 69. Male participants, as well as singles, were more satisfied with their bodies, and the contrary was true for divorced and separated. The IMAGINA program was particularly useful in participants with more body image problems. As shown, the pressure to fit beauty standards and related problems do not go away with age, a fact that is embodied and experienced differently in men and women.

“…En el test BSQ, se produce una mejora de 6.75 puntos de media en los participantes al programa específico aplicado sobre imagen corporal, por solo 0.75 en la condición de control. Esta mejora es clara, por lo que se puede concluir que el programa específico aplicado sobre imagen corporal incrementa la satisfacción corporal de los participantes significativamente más que otros programas preventivos inespecíficos o que la propia maduración experimental (Bailey et al, 2019;Rosés-Gómez, 2014;Halliwell et al, 2016).…”

Se compara la mejora lograda en satisfacción corporal por un programa específico de intervención en imagen corporal en personas mayores con los resultados obtenidos en programas de intervención y animación social, con el propósito de valorar si son significativamente mejores que otros programas de carácter social. De ser así, resulta relevante intervenir específicamente sobre la satisfacción corporal durante la vejez para evitar otros problemas relacionados como la depresión o la baja autoestima. En el estudio, se analizan las conexiones encontradas entre el género, la edad y la presencia de pareja sentimental estable, como características de gran importancia para la satisfacción corporal. Los resultados muestran que, aunque la relevancia de la satisfacción corporal durante esa etapa es cualitativamente diferente a edades anteriores, la intervención específica en imagen corporal es significativamente más efectiva que otros programas preventivos o que la maduración experimental.

“…Using an online survey and collecting both quantitative and qualitative data, the developmental phase of the CAP can be discussed not only by influential facilitating and hindering factors but the quality of the action research project can be reviewed. Similar to Bailey et al (2019), using the quality criteria of partnership and participation, action, reflection, and significance, outlined by Bradbury Huang (2010) and the Journal's criteria for quality (http://journals.sagepub.com/pb-assets/cmscontent/ARJ/ARJ_Quality_ Criteria.pdf), the results of this study can be reviewed in terms of the quality of this CAP's developmental phase.…”

A paucity of research exists on using action research with parents, particularly within the framework of parent education. The current study explores the development phase of a community-academic partnership (CAP) that designed a workshop and interactive toolkit to educate mothers on how to navigate social networking sites. The CAP (N = 10) was comprised of researchers, a community organization, and a group of mothers interested in the development of the parent education program. Participants completed an online survey wherein they endorsed and ranked the importance of facilitating and hindering factors present in the formation of the collaborative process, as well as provided formal feedback on the CAP. Although both collaborative processes (interpersonal and operational) were referenced as influential facilitating factors during the CAP’s development, operational processes were expressed as facilitators more often. Similar to other action research it appears that hindering factors are commonly not experienced during the development phase. In addition, it appears a quality action research project was conducted based on the successful fulfillment of partnership and participation, action, reflection, and significance. Overall, this study specifically makes a significant contribution to action research as it pertains to the development of parent education.
