The Effects of Attention Bias Modification on Body Dissatisfaction and Dietary Pattern Using Weight-Related Stimuli
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate if weight-related stimuli had a negative effect on body dissatisfaction levels, and if attentional modification to non-weight-related stimuli could attenuate body dissatisfaction levels. Sixty-one female college students were randomly assigned to a fat word attention-inducing group, a thin word attention-inducing group, and a non-weight word attention-inducing group. We provided a modified visual search task (ie., attention bias modification [ABM] programs) for two sessions at one-week intervals. We also assessed body dissatisfaction levels, affective states, and dietary patterns at pre- and post- session times during the ABM procedure. Only the non-weight word attention-inducing group showed significant reductions in body dissatisfaction but they did not show any changes in affective states and dietary patterns. Participants in the other groups did not show any changes. Results suggest that the non-weight word stimuli could be a non-threatening factor and that inducing attention toward the non-weight words could reduce body dissatisfaction. Implications, limitations, and future directions are discussed.
