Weight loss content on TikTok and antifat attitudes
The present study explored the relationships between consumption of weight loss content on TikTok, internalized weight stigma (i.e. negative attitudes towards the self), and antifat attitudes (i.e. negative attitudes towards others). It was hypothesized that internalized weight stigma would mediate the relationship between consumption of weight loss content on TikTok and antifat attitudes, controlling for gender and race. Participants included a …
Same gender typicality, risky technology use, and disordered eating among adolescents
This cross‐sectional study explored the moderating role of self‐perceived same gender typicality in the relationship between risky technology use and disordered eating outcomes among adolescents. The sample consisted of early adolescents ( N = 147; M age = 14.54, SD age = .57; 75 boys, 69 girls, and 3 missing) who completed a written survey at their public high school. Participants identified as 68% White, 14.3% mixed‐race/more than one race, 4.1…
That selfie becomes you
Evidence suggests that engaging in photo behaviors on social media is associated with negative body image (i.e. negative thoughts and feelings toward the body). One potential mechanism underlying these associations is that posting photos of oneself online may represent a form of self-objectification (i.e. thinking of the self as an object) which is associated with a number of negative consequences for body image. The current study investigated wh…
Engage, Ignore, Stand Up
Sexual harassment is a common experience among middle and high school students across the United States. Being the target of and even witnessing sexual harassment is associated with a number of negative consequences for adolescents. This study sought to explore early adolescent boys’ and girls’ reasoning about (a) perpetrating sexual harassment (i.e., making comments about another student’s body), (b) confronting sexual harassment when they are t…
Elementary School-age Children's Attitudes Toward Children in Same-Sex Parent Families
As numbers of families with same-sex parents increase in the United States, children are more likely to encounter diverse family structures. Given that young children can demonstrate in-group bias, prejudicial attitudes, and social exclusion, it is important to understand how children perceive their peers in diverse families. To our knowledge, no studies have assessed elementary-school-age children's attitudes about same-sex parent families. Here…
The Selfie Generation
Social media use among adolescents continues to increase each year. This cross-sectional study explored how the amount of time spent using social media and the frequency of specific behaviors on social media, namely, behaviors that involve self-objectification, were related to body surveillance and body shame among a sample of early adolescents ( N = 142; 43 boys and 99 girls, [Formula: see text] = 12.44 years, SD age = 0.61). Utilizing self-repo…
