Too Tall, Too Short
Height is a socially visible and psychologically salient characteristic, often linked to perceptions of attractiveness, dominance, and status. Despite its immutability in adulthood, height can become a source of dissatisfaction when individuals feel misaligned with internalized ideals. Our study examined height dissatisfaction using a novel visual tool, the Height Figural Rating Scale, in a sample of 328 Australian adults. We assessed actual heig…
Food choice motives mediate the relationship between delay discounting and binge eating
Binge eating (BE) is associated with psychological distress, functional impairment, and elevated risk of eating disorder diagnoses, and BE prevalence is increasing. Motivational and self-regulatory processes such as delay discounting may be important influences on BE; however, evidence is inconclusive, and lacks explanation of mechanisms. This study investigated how food choice motives mediate the pathway from delay discounting (DD) to BE symptom…
An examination of the relationship between height, height dissatisfaction, drive for thinness and muscularity, and eating disorder symptoms in north American women
Recent research has evidenced the importance of height dissatisfaction in male body image, however the impact of height on body image in women remains relatively unexplored. Our study aimed to investigate the association between height, heightdissatisfaction, body dissatisfaction, and eating disorder symptoms in a sample of 139 women from the USA. Participants were recruited using Amazon's MTurk and reported their actual and ideal height, as well…
Category-specific general Pavlovian-instrumental transfer
Modern living is characterized by easy access to highly palatable energy-dense foods. Environmental cues associated with palatable foods increase seeking of those foods (specific transfer) and other palatable foods (general transfer). We conducted a series of studies testing the boundaries of food cue-reactivity by evaluating the impact of broader flavor associations (i.e. saltiness, sweetness) in eliciting general transfer effects. Experiment 1 …
Beyond desirable
Objective The present study sought to examine self-ratings of actual and ideal bodies, as well as attractiveness ratings of other bodies in an Australian undergraduate sample. Additionally, associations between body preferences and self-body ratings in men and women were explored.Method Five-hundred-and-seventy heterosexual men and women selected their actual and ideal body, and the body they found most attractive utilizing bi-dimensional figural…
Negative Mood Induction Increases Choice of Heroin Versus Food Pictures in Opiate-Dependent Individuals
Acute growth in negative affect is thought to play a major role in triggering relapse in opiate-dependent individuals. Consistent with this view, three lab studies have demonstrated that negative mood induction increases opiate craving in opiate-dependent individuals. The current study sought to confirm these effects with a behavioral measure of heroin seeking, and test whether the effect is associated with self-reported opiate use to cope with n…
Cue-elicited craving and human Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer
Background: Drug cue-reactivity can be measured by the well-established cue-elicited craving model, or by the more recently developed Pavlovian to instrumental transfer (PIT) procedure, which quantifies the impact of drug cues on drug-seeking behaviour. It remains unclear whether these two models produce similar cue reactive effects.Method: To test this, 38 young adult beer drinkers completed an alcohol cue-elicited craving procedure followed by …
Examining Perceived Stress, Childhood Trauma and Interpersonal Trauma in Individuals With Drug Addiction
The investigation of psychosocial factors in relation to opiate addiction is limited and typically uses binary measures to assess how incidences of childhood trauma correlate with addiction. There has also been a lack of enquiry into how experiences of noninterpersonal versus interpersonal trauma may impact drug use addiction. In this regard, the current study utilized a novel measurement of interpersonal versus noninterpersonal lifetime trauma a…
Factor Analysis and Psychometric Validation of the Body Image Disturbance Questionnaire in an Australian Undergraduate Sample
ObjectiveBody image disturbance encompasses various cognitive and behavioural states originating from a distressing, negative evaluation of one's appearance. It is broader than negative body image, comprising not only dissatisfaction but also distress and dysfunction, and is a core feature of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). This study had two broad aims: to establish normative values for body image disturbance within an Australian population and …
