relationships between perceived importance of physical
appearance and weight control, appearance esteem, and
global self-esteem. past research has found that
perceived importance of appearance and weight control

and members of the thunder
bay community completed questionnaires on these topics.
we predicted that perceived importance would only play a
moderating role when: (1) people felt personally
responsible for their physical attractiveness; (2) people
felt personally responsible for their body-weight; and
(3) people had been teased a lot as children. our
results were significant for the first prediction but
were not in the direction we predicted. the second and
third predictions were not confirmed. most of the
significant results emerged on measures of eating
disorders and not on measures of global self-esteem. the
implications of these findings are discussed.
