Social media and dating app use are differentially related to same- and next-day disordered eating pathology in young men with loss of control eating
DISCUSSION: Non-significant links for SNS and dating app use with body dissatisfaction, and inverse associations with LOC eating, are contrary to research conducted with girls and women. Research is needed to evaluate whether the quality of SNS and dating app engagement (e.g., specific sites) are more closely related to men's disordered eating, and this work should consider muscularity concerns.PMID:37146410 | DOI:10.1016/j.eatbeh.2023.101735

Gender norms and sexual consent in dating relationships: a qualitative study of university students in Vietnam.
Abstract Social norms surrounding sex and relationships remain gendered among young people in Vietnam, with men maintaining a privileged role in heterosexual relationships. This analysis explored how university students in Vietnam perceived prevailing gender norms, and how these norms influenced men's understanding of sexual consent in dating relationships. This analysis drew primarily on in-depth interviews with heterosexual men and secondarily from interviews with women attending two universities in Hanoi in 2018. Thematic analysis of the interviews revealed a broader narrative about how prevailing gender norms ...

Cross‐cultural examination of beliefs about the causes of bulimia nervosa among Australian and Japanese females
DiscussionThe Japanese participants were found to endorse three out of the four Western‐based causal explanations for BN, but the relative importance they placed on those explanations differed from that of the Australian participants. Further research is needed, particularly to establish whether Japanese women simply fail to see psychological vulnerability as a viable cause of BN, or there are in fact cultural differences in the extent to which such vulnerability causes BN. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Beliefs on Marital Violence and Self-Reported Dating Violence: A Comparative Study of Cape Verdean and Portuguese Adolescents
In this study, we compare Portuguese and Cape Verdean youths’ upholding of traditional beliefs about intimate partner violence (IPV) and the frequency of self-reported violent behavior in dating relationships. The sample (n = 404) consisted of 183 Cape Verdean and 221 Portuguese secondary school students of both sexes (56 % female; mean age = 16). We used two questionnaires that had previously been validated in the Portuguese population. The results revealed that young Cape Verdean adolescents uphold stronger traditional beliefs than Portuguese adolescents do, but there were no differences in overall prevalence ...

Countless People Are Struggling With an Eating Disorder Doctors Can ’t Diagnose
At first, Melanie Murphy was just following doctor’s orders. Murphy, then 19, had gained weight during a period of depression, and her doctor told her she should lose some. She went from 180 to 125 pounds in 18 months—and even when she knew it was time to stop slimming down, she couldn’t shake the need to chase a goal. Without weight loss, she needed a new target. That became finding the “perfect” diet, one that was clean and pure and would keep her healthy for years to come. At least, that was how she thought about it then. These days, she uses a different descriptor: “orthorexia,&rdquo...

Mental health literacy regarding eating disorders in female Japanese university students.
Abstract Mental health literacy (MHL) refers to one's knowledge and beliefs about mental disorders. MHL is necessary for the prevention and early detection of eating disorders, but little research exists on the MHL of Japanese people. This paper aims to reveal the degree of MHL about eating disorders in the Japanese individuals most susceptible to them (namely, female university students). Female Japanese university students were surveyed with a self-report questionnaire, using the Japanese versions of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa vignettes. Most participants responded that the main problem described in ea...

The algorithm method: how internet dating became everyone's route to a perfect love match
Six million Britons are looking for their perfect partner online before Valentine's day on Friday, but their chance of success may depend on clever maths rather than charismaIn the Summer of 2012, Chris McKinlay was finishing his maths dissertation at the University of California in Los Angeles. It meant a lot of late nights as he ran complex calculations through a powerful supercomputer in the early hours of the morning, when computing time was cheap. While his work hummed away, he whiled away time on online dating sites, but he didn't have a lot of luck – until one night, when he noted a connection between the two acti...

Examining emotion regulation in binge-eating disorder
ConclusionsOur results indicate an essential and still insufficiently understood role of emotional dysregulation in BED. An especially important construct in this context seems to be alexithymia, which was strongly related to the majority of emotion regulation difficulties. Therefore, it might be beneficial to pay special attention to this construct when planning therapeutic interventions, as well as to the maladaptive emotion regulation strategies self-blame and catastrophizing, which were significantly related to BED psychopathology.

Words on Walls: Passive Eating Disorder Education.
This study examined the effect of a short-term passive intervention on nursing students' beliefs about eating disorders (EDs). Before and after a weeklong ED education poster campaign, participants completed questionnaires assessing their attitudes about individuals with EDs. Results showed a reduction in the belief that people with EDs are almost always women, increased attribution to biological and genetic factors, and decreased attribution to society's thin ideal. Personal connection moderated response to the items: [people with EDs] "are putting their lives at risk" and "would not improve with treatment." This interven...

Examination of parental dieting and comments as risk factors for increased drive for thinness in men and women at 20 ‐year follow‐up
DiscussionWhile our study supports parental influence on children's eating attitudes, it suggests a need to consider gender and mode of influence. Prevention efforts focused on challenging cultural standards of appearance may benefit from incorporation of parents. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. (Int J Eat Disord 2016)

Intervention Effects on Kindergarten and First-Grade Teachers' Classroom Food Practices and Food-Related Beliefs in American Indian Reservation Schools
Abstract: Prevalence of obesity among American Indian children is higher than the general US population. The school environment and teachers play important roles in helping students develop healthy eating habits. The aim of this prospective study was to examine teachers' classroom and school food practices and beliefs and the effect of teacher training on these practices and beliefs. Data were used from the Bright Start study, a group-randomized, school-based trial that took place on the Pine Ridge American Indian reservation (fall 2005 to spring 2008). Kindergarten and first-grade teachers (n=75) from 14 schools completed...

Integrating fear of fatness into sociocultural models of body image and eating concerns
Eat Behav. 2022 Jul 20;46:101653. doi: 10.1016/j.eatbeh.2022.101653. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTo date, sociocultural models of body dissatisfaction and disordered eating have predominantly focused on the pursuit of thinness and have somewhat neglected sociocultural discourse and pressures that increase fear of fatness. Therefore, we tested a model to determine whether sociocultural pressures from media and interpersonal sources were associated with drive for thinness and fear of fatness. We also examined whether beliefs about the controllability of shape and weight were in turn associated with body dissatisfaction and...

Factors associated with recognition of the signs of dating violence by Japanese junior high school students
Conclusions These findings suggest that education programs to prevent dating violence should promote understanding about dating violence with consideration of gender differences and should foster better relations between students and teachers, as well as promoting the establishment of an equal dating relationship between boys and girls.

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 6926: The Associations among Gender, Age, eHealth Literacy, Beliefs about Medicines and Medication Adherence among Elementary and Secondary School Teachers
Conclusions: The results showed that male teachers had stronger concerns about medication than female teachers. Teachers aged 42–51 years had lower functional eHealth literacy and stronger necessity beliefs about medication than teachers aged 22–31 years. In addition, teachers who were older, had higher functional eHealth literacy, had stronger necessity beliefs about medication, and had fewer concerns about medication tended to take their medications as prescribed. These findings revealed that helping teachers develop high eHealth literacy and positive beliefs about medicines is an effective st...
