Congratulations to two of our graduate students for defending their Master's Theses!

Congratulations to Keel Lab graduate students Holly Spinner and Alejandra Medina for passing their Master's Thesis defenses! Holly's thesis examined thin ideal internalization as a mediator in the counterintuitive relationship between perfectionism and frequency of bulimic symptoms (e.g., binge eating, purging) across long-term follow-up. Alejandra examined the mediating effects of body mass index and drive for thinness on the relationship between weight suppression and bulimic symptoms across long-term follow-up. Alejandra examined these relationships in both Hispanic and Non-Hispanic Groups.
