Abstract:

Nutritional anthropometry is a widely accepted and commonly used technique to determine health risks associated with malnutrition. However the uses of anthropometry in large epidemiological studies have certain limitations such as some degree of measurement error, lack of trained manpower and laborious measurement process. Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) is recognized as an alternative tool to anthropometry and extensively studied its suitability to measure the nutritional status of the individuals in field settings. Hence, a cross sectional study was undertaken to assess the nutritiona

Abstract:

Body dissatisfaction is common in adolescence and associated with negative outcomes (e.g., eating disorders). We identified common individual trajectories of body dissatisfaction from midadolescence to adulthood and predictors of divergent patterns. Participants were 1,455 individuals from four waves of Project EAT (Eating and Activity in Teens and Young Adults), a population-based, 15-year longitudinal study. Aggregate body dissatisfaction increased over 15 years, which was largely attributable to increases in weight. Growth mixture modeling identified four common patterns of body dissatisfac

Abstract:

A socio,cultural component has long been blamed for the excessive concern with the appearance of women. Typically, the media is blamed for creating an impossible thin ideal as a model for women to emulate, and such images in magazines and on TV have been cast as the cause of widespread use of excessive dieting and eating disorders to achieve the "unachievable". The onset of theses two diseases typically occur during early adolescence or early adulthood when most young women are not only susceptible to cultural pressure for thinness and whiteness but also likely to be heavily involved with, and

In adults, greater social integration is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, including hypertension. Social integration earlier in life may be similarly associated with cardiovascular risk. Using a longitudinal sample of 267 Black and White men, we examined whether greater social integration with peers during childhood and adolescence, assessed by parent report, prospectively predicts lower blood pressure and body mass index two decades later in adulthood and whether these effects differ by race, given well-documented racial disparities in hypertension.

The purpose of the study is to confirm the reasons behind young Chinese women’s eating disturbances and self-esteem. The researcher uses the Tripartite Influence model to illustrate the relationship between internalization and pressures in the form of peer, family, and media pressure. It further reveals the relationship between internalization and self-esteem and eating disorders. Besides conforming with the mode of young Chinese females, it aims at finding out the reasons behind each relevant relationship. One point of the study is the different impact of media pressure on young Chinese femal

Abstract:

The prevalence of dieting is alarmingly high amongst adolescents in South Africa. Dieting behaviour, influenced by the promotion of the thin ideal, poses one of the main risks for eating disorders, which have serious physical, psychological and social consequences, including death. Treatment of eating disorders is a costly, difficult and long-term process, therefore preventative measures have been advocated. One of the shortcomings of existing school-based primary intervention programmes has been the failure to bring about significant changes in body image, a key defining feature of eating di

Abstract:

Peers represent important transmitters of weight- and body-related norms and ideals. Although much research exists on peer processes that disrupt girls’ and women’s connection to their bodies, this chapter examines the literature specifically pertaining to protective peer influences that support girls and women in distancing from appearance norms and facilitate enhanced connection with their bodies. In this regard, the chapter reviews three domains of protective influences that exist within the peer environment and contribute to positive body image and embodiment. First are peer norms related to (a) body acceptance, (b) distancing from appearance-based comments and comparisons, and (c) alternative norms fostering resiliency from peer appearance-based pressure. Second are interventions designed to support peer groups in resisting and protecting against teasing and harassment. The final domain is initiatives that facilitate activism and empowerment as positive determinants to social power within peer groups. The chapter concludes with a discussion of implications for clinical and prevention initiatives.
