Very excited to have this paper out into the world! We found that virtual implementation of the Body Project produced slightly larger effect sizes than in-person delivery. We hope that these findings will help reduce barriers in accessing preventative care! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

A research invitation flyer with a light pink background and green paisley illustrations. The heading reads β€œYou are Invited” . The text explains that most pain research has focused on white women, and South Asian women with long-term pelvic pain are not being heard. It invites South Asian women living in the UK who have experienced pelvic pain for more than six months (no diagnosis required) to share their experiences. The flyer provides a QR code and an email address (mahira.budhraja@uwe.ac.uk) for joining the study. It explains that interested participants will complete a brief questionnaire, and 12 women will be invited for a 45–60 minute interview about living with chronic pelvic pain. The bottom-right corner features a large QR code for accessing the questionnaire.
