Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the self-body cathexis of obese women and their attitudes toward physical activity. Fifty inventories were used for the research in this project. The volunteer subjects' ages ranged from 18 to 45 with a mean age of 28.9 years. The subjects" weight ranged from 20 percent to 120 percent over desirable weight. The females were chosen on the basis of their current weight being 20 percent or more higher than their desirable weight, according to the chart developed by the Build and Blood Pressure Study (48). The measuring devices used were the Jourard and Secord Self-Body Cathexis Inventory and the Kenyon Attitude Toward Physical Activity Inventory. The data from the inventories were statistically analyzed using primarily the Pearson product moment correlation. The .05 level of significance was selected for rejecting, the null hypotheses. The results of the study revealed that the obese women surveyed had average feelings of satisfaction concerning their self and body images. These women had a highly significant positive relationship between their body and their self image. The women in this study who weighed less had a more positive body image. Also, the less the women weighed the more positive their attitude toward physical activity. In general these obese women believed that the positive aspects of physical activity included catharsis, a social experience, an ascetic experience, an improvement of one's health and fitness and the pursuit of vertigo. They did not believe that physical activity was an aesthetic experience. Those women who believed that physical activity was a social experience or to improve one's health and fitness also believed it was for the purpose of catharsis. There were no significant relationships between their attitude toward physical activity and their self or body cathexis.

Many women have retained responsibility for caring for their families and their households despite their fulltime employment.

Social cognitive factors were assessed using a Likert-type questionnaire and a food frequency questionnaire. Body mass index was calculated using self reported height and weight information. Diet quality was determined using the Healthy Eating Index. Qualitative interviewing was conducted in 35 subjects to identify perceptions working women have about their dietary and physical activity behaviors. There was no difference in diet quality or dietary intake between working women children and women without children. Women with children had significantly lower exercise index scores than women without children (p

Book excerpt: Purpose: The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between achievement self-esteem, self acceptance self-esteem and body composition in college women. Methods: One-hundred and fifty eight college women were recruited to participate in the study. Participants were healthy, between the age of 18 and 25 yrs, not taking medication that would alter metabolism, and able to participate in physical activity without restriction. As part of the study the participants filled out the Worth Index, which measured level of self-acceptance and achievement self-esteem. The questionnaire included four subscales: basic human worth, performance factor, personal security and appearance. Body composition was assessed using the BOD POD. Results: Participants in the study were 19.9 ± 1.7 yrs, had a BMI of 22.5 ± 3.2 kg/m2 and a percent body fat of 26.4 ± 6.4. Source of self-esteem was primarily self-acceptance self-esteem with participants on average scoring 65 ± 11 out of 84 (high moderate) compared to an achievement self-esteem score of 35 ± 10 out of 84 (low moderate). When evaluating the subscales a similar trend appears with the exception of the performance factor, which was more normally distributed. Achievement self-esteem in appearance was positively correlated to percent body fat (p

Book excerpt: Research shows that the association between depression and obesity may be strongest among the most obese individuals. Appearance is a central evaluative dimension for females in Western culture, therefore body dissatisfaction can contribute directly to depression. Adolescents and females are at greater risk for self-esteem problems because body image is an important component of their self-esteem. The present study will add to the existing literature on adolescent obesity by examining the associations between family functioning, self-esteem levels, and depression in a self-selected sample of female adolescents who attended a weight-loss program. More specifically, this study will investigate how high and low levels of self-esteem and family functioning affect depression levels. Reasons for such an investigation are to increase the awareness of the effects and causes of depression levels among obese children and adolescents. A total of 45 obese adolescents with a mean age of 13.32 years participated in the initial evaluations (baseline measures). Fifty-three percent of the participants were Caucasian, 22% were Hispanic, 20% were African American, and 4% were multi-racial. The mean BMI was 34.04 kg, and ranged from 25.80 to 56.17. A multiple regression analysis was conducted to determine a relationship between body image and depressive symptoms and between self-esteem and depressive symptoms. The analysis produced a significant relationship between self-esteem and depressive symptoms, t(39) = -7.20, p .001 and between body image and depressive symptoms, t(39) = 2.52, p
