  • An examination of the link between empathy and weight-based victimization

    Open AccessValerie Douglas, Mun Yee Kwan et al.ARTICLESocial Sciences & Humanities Open2022

    Weight stigma is widely accepted by society and may be difficult to reduce through externally motivating factors. It is important to also investigate internally motivated factors that may be associated with the choice to engage in weight-based victimization such as dispositional empathy and its association to attitudinal weight bias. Our hypotheses were: 1) individuals with higher empathy would report engaging in less victimization; 2) this would…

  • Coming out’, context and reason

    Isabel Rivers, Ian Rivers et al.ARTICLEPsychology and Sexuality2010Cited by: 3References: 11

    For many, ‘coming out’ to family members represents a critical milestone in lesbian, gay and bisexual development. This study explores the cognitive aspects of ‘coming out’ focusing on the inductive and deductive reasoning used by the authors of 400 ‘coming out’ stories and the conditional responses that followed. Results indicated that men were more likely to use inductive reasoning than deductive when compared to women. Furthermore, among those…

    Previous studies have reported inconsistent relationships between body image, eating disorder symptoms, and acculturation-relevant variables. The current study examined these variables in a sample of White, Latina, and Black college women (N = 276). White and Latina participants selected slimmer personal body shape ideals than Black women. Among Black women, the discrepancy between perceived body shape and perceived ideal body shape for the Unite…

  • Suicidal desire and the capability for suicide

    Kimberly A Van Orden, Tracy K Witte et al.ARTICLEJournal of Consulting and…2008

    The interpersonal-psychological theory of suicidal behavior (T. E. Joiner, 2005) proposes that an individual will not die by suicide unless he or she has both the desire to die by suicide and the ability to do so. Three studies test the theory's hypotheses. In Study 1, the interaction of thwarted belongingness and perceived burdensomeness predicted current suicidal ideation. In Study 2, greater levels of acquired capability were found among indiv…
