Are black-white differences in females' body dissatisfaction decreasing? A meta-analytic review.

Proponents of the sociocultural model of eating disorders have suggested that ethnic differences in body dissatisfaction may be diminishing as the thin ideal of beauty becomes more widely disseminated among minority women. In a meta-analysis, the authors examined temporal trends in Black-White differences and also examined whether these differences generalize across various age groups and measures. Results confirmed more favorable body image evaluations among Black than White females, with the greatest differences at the age period of the early 20s. Although results confirmed that ethnic differences have diminished, this trend was limited to weight-focused measures. On more global body image measures, ethnic differences actually increased. These results suggest that the relationship between Black-White ethnicity and body image is more complex than previously suggested.
