This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a special online program called PRETA can help prevent eating disorders in students ages 10–12. The program uses educational activities and interactive lessons to teach healthy eating habits and positive body image. Researchers will compare students who participate in the program with students who don't, to see if it makes a real difference.
Eating disorders are becoming more common in young people, and there aren't many proven ways to prevent them before they start. This study is designed to find out if teaching healthy habits early—before problems develop—can actually work.

If you're picked for the program group, you'll attend special online lessons at school that teach about healthy eating and body image, led by teachers trained for this program. You and your parents might get extra resources and information. Everyone in the study—both those in the program and those not—will answer questions at the start and end to help researchers measure whether the program works. The whole study takes place during your regular school year.
