Gender, age, marital status, and selection of a favorite celebrity of the opposite gender
How popular are pop stars? The false consensus of perceived celebrity popularity
Values of College Students in Iran and the United States Who Admire Celebrities
This study had two goals. The first goal was to compare scores on the Celebrity Attitude Scale (CAS) and values of college students in Iran and the United States on how they differ in their admiration for their favorite celebrities. The second goal was to examine additional psychometric data on the Twenty Item Values Inventory (TWIVI). We administered the TWIVI, the CAS, and demographic items to 200 students at a university in Iran, and 199 stude…
Trauma and psychological distress among ethnically diverse community college students
An association has been found between traumatic experiences and psychological distress; however, the impact of ethnicity on psychological distress is less clear. The present study examined the relationship between traumatic experiences and measures of psychological distress among a multiethnic sample of community college students. A total of 389 male and 848 female students completed a questionnaire that included the Distressing Events Questionna…
Body Image and Celebrity Worship
We surveyed college students to determine the relationship between body image and celebrity admiration. We administered the Celebrity Attitude Scale (CAS), the Self-Objectification Questionnaire (SOQ), the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT), and a slightly modified version of the (ESS,) to 279 participants from three universities and one college. We hypothesized that, as the tendency to worship celebrities increased, so would self-objectification, enjoy…
The Temporal Stability of the Tendency to Worship Celebrities
This study examined the test-retest and internal reliability of a scale used to measure celebrity worship. We administered the Celebrity Attitude Scale (CAS) and several related items on two different occasions approximately 3 months apart to 248 participants from three universities and one college. We hypothesized that attitudes about celebrities would remain fairly stable over time. Results confirmed the hypothesis and were discussed in relatio…
Eating Attitudes, Self-Dissatisfaction and Emotional Distress Among Early Adolescents in Hawai'i: A Gender Comparison
The present study examines whether there are gender differences in eating attitudes among a sample of early adolescents in Hawai'i. A total of 79 female and 65 male 7th graders completed a survey that included measures of eating attitudes and other psychological constructs. Contrary to our prediction, males reported higher levels of disordered eating attitudes and body dissatisfaction than females. However, there were no gender differences in sym…
Perceptions of campus climate, academic efficacy and academic success among community college students: An ethnic comparison
Mental Illness Beliefs in Malaysia: Ethnic and Intergenerational Comparisons
Two groups of college students in Malaysia, ethnic Malay and ethnic Chinese, completed a mental illness attribution and help seeking questionnaire, and these responses were also compared with the responses of their mothers. As expected, ethnic Malays rated religious items, such as God and prayer, higher than the Chinese. However, both groups rated the social and psychological causes higher than religious, supernatural or physical causes. Contrary…
Filipino American and Caucasian American beliefs about the causes and treatment of mental problems
Psychiatric Symptoms in Offspring of Within vs. Across Racial/Ethnic Marriages
A large number of adolescents of interracial ancestry (parents comprising various combinations of African-American, American Indian/Alaska Native, European-American, Chinese, Filipino, Hispanic, Japanese, Korean, Puerto Rican, Samoan, and Tongan ancestry) were contrasted with a monoracial European-American sample in the degree to which they reported symptoms of depression, anxiety, conduct disorder/aggression, and substance abuse. The adolescents…
Cultural Differences in Illness Schemas: An Analysis of Filipino and American Illness Attributions
Physical illness attributions of Filipinos and Americans were compared to examine cultural variations in the causal component of the physical illness schemas. American (n = 50) and Filipino (n = 100) women rated physical, psychological, and spiritual-social illness explanations, and, as predicted, the Filipino women attributed the cause of illnesses to spiritual-social explanations more frequency than the Americans. The influence of education on …
