Body Image and Disordered Eating Lab
Promoting a positive self perception
Body image and disordered eating are growing concerns in modern society as individuals
are affected by societal demands of achieving an ideal image or lifestyle. The Body
Image and Disordered Eating Lab conducts research to identify, understand and explore
body image, disordered eating and related concerns.
Advocating for a healthier you
Our research is used to inform a variety of audiences of how body image and disordered
eating play roles in social justice, cultural diversity and individual and collective
health. We strive to participate in advocacy and outreach opportunities by connecting to
community organizations to implement body image related, disordered eating programs
and participating in activities that promote awareness of body image and disordered
eating related concerns.
