Church Affirmation Moderates the Relationship Between Weight-Rejection-Sensitivity and Body Dissatisfaction in Young Adults in the USA
A many-analysts approach to the relation between religiosity and well-being
The relation between religiosity and well-being is one of the most researched topics in the psychology of religion, yet the directionality and robustness of the effect remains debated. Here, we adopted a many-analysts approach to assess the robustness of this relation based on a new cross-cultural dataset (N=10,535 participants from 24 countries). We recruited 120 analysis teams to investigate (1) whether religious people self-report higher well-…
Religious-body affirmations protect body esteem for women who base self-worth on appearance or others’ approval
Women who base their self-worth on appearance or others’ approval are especially vulnerable to low body esteem when they view media images of thin models. We explored one way religion might mitigate the harmful media effects in these women. We tested whether basing self-worth on appearance or others’ approval was positively related to body comparisons and body surveillance. We tested whether reading religious body-affirming statements enhanced fe…
The effects of religious-body affirmations and religious commitment on men’s body esteem
Using a self-affirmation framework, this study tested whether religion buffered harmful media threats to men's body esteem. It tested whether reading religious body-affirming statements or having a strong religious commitment protected men's body esteem from media threats. It also tested whether religious commitment moderated the harmful media effects in the most threatened group (overweight men). Fifty-six men at a religious-affiliated college c…
Do Religious Affirmations, Religious Commitments, or General Commitments Mitigate the Negative Effects of Exposure to Thin Ideals
Western pressures for thinness tell women that having a thin body makes a person worthy. Two factors that may provide alternative means of self-worth are religion and general commitment to a meaningful goal. This study experimentally tested whether religious-affirming statements buffered against exposure to thin models for everyone, or only for women with strong religious commitment. It also examined the relationships among religious commitment, …
The Attractive Female Body Weight and Female Body Dissatisfaction in 26 Countries Across 10 World Regions
This study reports results from the first International Body Project (IBP-I), which surveyed 7,434 individuals in 10 major world regions about body weight ideals and body dissatisfaction. Participants completed the female Contour Drawing Figure Rating Scale (CDFRS) and self-reported their exposure to Western and local media. Results indicated there were significant cross-regional differences in the ideal female figure and body dissatisfaction, bu…
Why listeners hear less than they are told
Prior research (T. Gilovich, 1987; M. Inman, A. Reichl, & R. Baron, 1993) indicated that individuals (tellers) who directly observe an actor (on video tape) rate that actor less extremely than other individuals (listeners) who hear the tellers' secondhand accounts of the actor's actions. Evidence has suggested that this teller-listener effect is due at least in part to listeners' failure to encode and consider mitigating circumstances contributin…
Why listeners hear less than they are told
Influence of prototypes on perceptions of prejudice
Two studies examined the influence of cultural stereotypes and personal factors (one's race, gender) on perceptions of racial and gender discrimination. Overall, the data suggest that our perceptions of prejudice are strongly influenced by specific expectations regarding who are the prototypic perpetrators and victims of prejudice. More general expectations regarding out-group conflict or regarding only the characteristics of the perpetrator appe…
