Description
Body image, disordered eating, and self-esteem have been observed in Black women via various studies, however most of the theories for these phenomena in Black women have been based on internal factors such as ethnic identification or external factors relating to media and discrimination. The purpose of this study is to understand the effect that the racial composition of Black women’s academic and social networks have on their body image, disordered eating, and self-esteem, when controlling for ethnic centrality.
