Weight-based stigma is prevalent, increasing, and has many negative consequences. This research examines people's beliefs about what other people with heavy versus thin body types enjoy, in terms of food and activities. Predictions of others' enjoyment are important, as they can shape various downstream judgments, including beliefs about other people's likely goal pursuit success, and recommendations and choices for others. Six pre-registered experiments compare predictions of others' enjoyment of healthy and unhealthy foods and activities, based on whether others have heavy versus thin body types. These experiments show that whereas beliefs about what people with thin body types enjoy are flexible, beliefs about what people with heavy body types enjoy are narrow and inflexible. Specifically, if people with thin body types engage in counter-stereotypical unhealthy behavior, they are perceived to enjoy such behavior as much as people with heavy body types. By contrast, even if people with heavy body types engage in counter-stereotypical healthy behavior, they are perceived not to enjoy such behavior as much as people with thin body types. The potential wide-ranging implications of the belief that heavy people have narrower ranges of potential enjoyment are discussed.

体重耻辱:我们相信每个人都可以享受健康的行为吗?



基于体重的耻辱很普遍,而且不断增加,并产生许多负面后果。这项研究调查了人们对其他体型较胖和较瘦的人在食物和活动方面的喜好的看法。对他人享受的预测很重要,因为它们可以形成各种下游判断,包括对其他人可能目标追求成功的信念,以及对他人的建议和选择。六项预先注册的实验根据其他人的体型是胖还是瘦,比较了对其他人享受健康和不健康食物和活动的预测。这些实验表明,虽然对瘦体型的人喜欢什么的信念是灵活的,但对胖体型的人喜欢什么的信念却是狭隘和僵化的。具体来说,如果体型瘦弱的人做出了反传统的不健康行为,他们就会被认为和体型肥胖的人一样喜欢这种行为。相比之下,即使体型肥胖的人做出了反传统的健康行为,他们也被认为不像体型瘦弱的人那样喜欢这种行为。讨论了“胖人的潜在享受范围较小”这一信念的潜在广泛影响。
