Ideal body weight: A commentary
Clinical Nutrition ESPEN, 2021The Ideal Body Weight (IBW) model has provided dietitians and researchers with a quick method of risk assessment but is known to be imperfect. IBW formulas were developed from anthropometric measurements of life-insurance policy holders obtained between 1885 and 1908, providing statistics of mortality, organized by sex and age.

Headhunters and the ‘ideal’ executive body
Organization, 2013In this article, we adopt a critical perspective to study how executive search practices reproduce particular understandings of the ‘ideal’ executive body. We show how this disadvantages not only women but also men who are considered not to fit the ‘ideal’, and further demonstrate how search practices are embodied: how aesthetics, the senses and a ...

There is no clear consensus on the correct definition of ideal body weight (IBW) in children or on the best method used to calculate IBW. There are at least 3 ways of obtaining IBW in children. They are (1) the McLaren method, (2) the Moore method, and (3) the body mass index method.

Reactions to ideal body shapes
The Journal of General Psychology, 2019Difficult-to-attain beauty standards that are promulgated by the media could contribute to body dissatisfaction, but their potential impact upon body image remains unclear. The present study examined reactions to thin-ideal and muscular-ideal images, and examined the effects of ideal image exposure on preferred body shape and time spent deliberating ...

The intrinsic differences of water and fat protons in the MR environment allow selective interrogation of their contribution to the MR signal. Fat-suppression techniques and chemical shift imaging are routinely used in clinical body MRI. Iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares estimation (IDEAL) is a novel imaging

Ideal Comparisons: Body Ideals Harm Women’s Body Image Through Social Comparison
Body Image, 2019Body dissatisfaction and self-objectification can arise when women view idealized thin bodies, as well as idealized athletic or curvy bodies. State-level social comparisons have been shown to mediate such effects, with mixed evidence for the moderating role of trait-level social comparison.

This thesis argues that women's bodies are constituted by discourses about them. It explores the operations of power over women's bodies by analyzing the way in which the maternal body is constructed in the discourses of law, medicine and culture. Chapter One provides a theoretical context for this thesis.

Body Dissatisfaction and the Effects of Perceptual Exposure on Body Norms and Ideals
International Journal of Eating Disorders, 2009 Objective: Body dissatisfaction is of high prevalence among women all over the Western world. It is often suggested that sociocultural processes are the main cause of such widespread dissatisfaction. Here, we consider how perceptual effects may influence

Abstract The interpretation of gravity anomaly data suffers from a fundamental nonuniqueness, even when the solution set is bounded by physical or geologic constraints. Therefore, constructing a single solution that fits or approximately fits the data is of limited value.
