Examining the impact of perceived weight discrimination on reported eating and exercise among White and Latino/a adults

Eating Behaviours May 28, 2021

Wellman JD, et al. - This study was undertaken to explore the relatioships of perceived weight discrimination with eating and exercise thoughts and behaviors among White versus Latino/a participants. Researchers included a sample of White (N = 50) and Latino/a (N = 281) undergraduate college students with higher body weight (BMI: M = 30.65, SD = 5.42) who completed self-report measures assessing perceived weight-based discrimination, frequency of intake of unhealthy and healthy foods, and frequency of both thoughts about exercise and exercise behaviors to analyze associations among these variables within White vs Latino/a participants. The data demonstrate a number of potential avenues for future study to distinguish the mechanisms underlying these differential relationships of perceived weight discrimination to eating and exercise behaviors across racial/ethnic groups.
