• Body Size Stereotyping and Internalization of the Thin Ideal in Preschool Girls (2010, background): “Although boys and men also experience body dissatisfaction (Jones 2004; McCabe and Ricciardelli 2004; Thompson and Cafri 2007), the nature of sociocultural ideals for a masculine appearance feature muscularity, muscle size, and leanness more prominently than thinness (Smolak et al. 2001; Thompson…”
• The UCLA Body Project I: Gender and Ethnic Differences in Self-Objectification and Body Satisfaction Among 2,206 Undergraduates (2007, background): “Furthermore, dissatisfaction with muscularity has been repeatedly associated with lower body satisfaction and poorer psychological well-being (for reviews see Cafri and Thompson 2004; Cafri et al. 2005; Labre 2002; McCabe and Ricciardelli 2004; Mishkind et al. 1986).”
