Abstract:

How we perceive our body is shaped by sensory experiences with our surrounding environment, as witnessed by poor performance in tasks during which participants judge with their hands crossed the temporal order between two somatosensory stimuli, one applied on each hand. This suggests that somatosensory stimuli are not only processed according to a somatotopic representation but also a spatiotopic representation of the body. We investigated whether the perception of stimuli occurring in external space, such as visual stimuli, can also be influenced by the body posture and somatosensory stimuli.

Abstract:

This study examined the differences in the measures of perception of body shape and body affect among Chinese and American college male and female students. 289 Chinese students in China and 180 American students in the United States voluntarily completed the Body-image Questionnaire, comprised of four categories: (a) anthropometric data, (b) self-perception of body shape, (c) body affect, and (d) desired body shape. American students were significantly more likely than Chinese students to perceive their body shapes as being larger, but both Chinese and American students tended to perceive the

Abstract:

Body image perception includes body size assessment, body desirability estimation, and perceptions concerning one’s own body shape and size. Adolescence is a period of intense and prompt physical transformation, which changes the perception of one’s body. This represents a critical period for the development of body image. Therefore, the present cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate body image perception and investigate the relationships between it, weight status, sex, and physical activity in a sample of high school students living in Italy.

Abstract:

Using figure drawings, perception of body shape was evaluated by underweight, average, and overweight men and women. Body-shape dissatisfaction was greatest for 60 overweight women, and about the same in 151 average weight women as it was for 102 overweight men. Average weight men ( n = 107) and underweight women ( n = 31) were fairly satisfied with their current shapes. Both men and women had distorted views of the shape the opposite sex found most attractive. Women guessed that men would prefer a thinner shape than they actually did, and men guessed that women would prefer a larger shape tha

Different gradations of body angles within gymnastic body postures and their corresponding figural shapes are investigated in relation to the aesthetic perception of observers with different sensory-motor experiences. Results indicate that observers’ aesthetic perception scores of body postures increase the larger the split angle, while observers’

Abstract:

It is suggested that the media is a contributing factor to the obsession with the perfect body in Western society, and the associated rise in eating disorders. One of the key features of the eating disorders anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa is a disturbance in body size and shape. Researchers disagree on how this can be quantified. Previous methods have only produced a percentage over or underestimation of body size, rather than a representative image.

As the clothing industry moves away from traditional models of mass production there has been increased interest towards customised clothing. The technology to produce cost effective customised clothing is already in place however the prerequisite to customised clothing is accurate body dimensional data. In response, image capture systems have been developed which are capable of recording a three-dimensional image of the body, from which measurements and shape information may be extracted. The use of these systems for customised clothing has, to date, been limited due to issues of inaccuracy,

Background: Since the commencement of the European colonisation of Australia in 1788, the lives and worlds of Australian Aboriginal peoples have changed dramatically. Following separation from land, family, culture, and a rapid change in diet and lifestyle, Aboriginal peoples now encounter a range of health concerns, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, poorer mental health, and lower life expectancy, that did not exist prior to colonisation. Body image has previously been a White, middle class, female concern, with other populations such as Black and Indigenous populations, considered immune. In

Abstract:

Obesity has become a global pandemic that not only affects adults, but also children and adolescents. It has been found that obesity among children and adolescents has emotional, social, physical and psychological ramifications, one of which is bullying. Very little has been written on the effects obesity in early adolescence has on bullying behaviour in a South African context. For this reason the researcher deemed it necessary to study the perceptions of youths in early adolescence with regard to obesity and bullying. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 35 early adolescents from t

AbstractThe design strategy common to the educational spaces for the “Up School” based in the metropolitan area of Cagliari aims to frame a flexible learning space open to experimentation and the active exploration of places. Indeed, learning does not merely mean collecting and memorizing information; it also requires the ability to select, connect, understand and integrate, first by acquiring self-awareness and by developing perceptual abilities. Space—as experienced in its dynamic dimension—plays a crucial role in this process. The principles of the dynamic perception of space established by

Indeed, aesthetics is not so much the terminus a quo of his philosophy but rather its terminus ad quem.
