Resumen
The prevention of eating disorders is considered, mainly by psychologists of health, a priority task to cover. In accord to this idea it was decided to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of two intervention programs based in different strategies. The nonrandom sample consisted of n=58 students with a mean age of x̅=13.43 (SD=1.14), which were randomly assigned to two different selective prevention programs Psychoeducation (n = 28; age of x̅=13.46, SD=1.17) and Virtual reality Reinforced (n=30; age of x̅=13.40, SD=1.13). The results showed nodifferences betweenprograms. However, when each was evaluated (pretest / postest) results werepositive and statistically significant (p ≤.001) in those variables associatedwithbody image anddisordered eating. In additionthere was asignificant decreaseinthe percentageof participants whowere placedat risk(clinical significance) as a result ofthe preventive programs. These findingsare encouragingbecause of the importanceinvolvedin reducingrisk factors andtheeffect it has onthe health ofadolescents.
