The present study investigated the influence of a weight loss reality TV show on body satisfaction, mood and food consumption. Young Australian women (N = 99) first completed baseline measures of state body satisfaction and mood. They were then randomly allocated to either a weight loss or a home renovation programme and were provided with snack foods during viewing. Post-measures included state body satisfaction, state mood and trait dietary restraint and snack food consumption. BMI moderated the relationship between condition and body satisfaction and mood. Larger women experienced less body satisfaction and less positive mood in response to the weight loss programme. Dietary restraint moderated the relationship between condition and food consumption. A greater percentage of women with lower dietary restraint ate in the control condition; whilst a greater percentage of women with higher dietary restraint ate food whilst watching the weight loss programme. These findings highlight the potential negative impact of weight-focused reality TV on mood, body satisfaction and snack food consumption among some women.
本研究调查了一档减肥真人秀节目对身体满意度、情绪和食物消费的影响。年轻的澳大利亚女性(N = 99)首先完成了身体状态满意度和情绪的基线测量。然后,她们被随机分配到减肥或房屋装修节目组,并在观看节目期间提供了休闲食品。测量后包括身体状态满意度、状态情绪、特质饮食节制和休闲食品消费。体重指数调节了分组情况与身体满意度和情绪之间的关系。体型较大的女性在减肥节目后身体满意度较低,情绪也不那么积极。饮食节制调节了分组情况与食物消费之间的关系。饮食节制较低的女性在对照条件下进食的比例更高;而饮食节制较高的女性在观看减肥节目时进食的比例更高。这些发现凸显了以体重为重点的真人秀节目对一些女性的情绪、身体满意度和休闲食品消费可能产生的负面影响。
