Rep Power: 0 | | Body Image + Media Hi All,
Since shows like the biggest loser and makeover show, as well as weight loss infomercials, i have been inspired to do my honors thesis around the topic of body image, personality, and perfectionism in relation to media exposure. All of the specifics are in the explanatory letter attached
The link below is to a copy of the survey online - it is COMPLETELY ANONYMOUS and no identifying information is required...
I would entirely appreciate it if you could please take the time to participate in my research - The survey takes approximately 20 mins..
Thank you Perfectionism, Personality and Body Image |

Rep Power: 45 | | You may want to add the weight in POUNDS since most of us dont follow grams so are unable to answer. Also, just wondering why you have lots of choices for ages until you get to 40, and then its just 40 plus. I would think someone in their 40's has far different issues than someone in their 60's when it comes to body image. Just some suggestions.. |

Rep Power: 46 | | I took the survey (always interested in helping someone complete their thesis), but it seems as though a lot of your body image questions are directed specifically towards women.
If you are hoping to get meaningful results for both genders, you may want to change some of those questions. |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
