Abstract

Males are increasingly subjected to pressures to conform to aesthetic body stereotypes There is however comparatively little published research on the aetiology o male body shape concerns Two experiments are presented which investigate the relation ship between gender specific body shape concerns and colournaming performance Each study comprised a between subject design in which each subject was tested on a single occasion A pictorial version of a modified Stroop task was used in both studies Subjects colournamed gender specific obese and thin body shape images and semantically homoge neous neutral images birds presented in a blocked format The first experiment investigated female subjects N = 68 and the second investigated males N = 56 Subjects also completed a selfreport measure of eating behaviour Currently dieting female subjects exhibited signifi cant colournaming differences between obese and neutral images A similar pattern o colournaming performance was found to be related to external eating in the male subjects
