Abstract:
Objective:To explore the implicit bias of body image measurement in young and middle-aged people using implicit relational assessment procedure (IRAP) .Methods:ProQuest, Scopus, EBSCO, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang data, and VIP databases were systematically searched to collect articles on the use of IRAP to measure implicit bias in body image in young and middle-aged populations. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the databases to December 15, 2023. Meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.4 software.Results:A total of 11 articles were included. The results of the Meta-analysis showed that the score of D general (reaction time index of pro-thinness and anti-fat) was 0.09 (95% CI: 0.07~0.11, P<0.01), indicating that compared with overweight/obesity, young and middle-aged people had a strong sense of identification with thinness and a stronger desire for thinness. The score of D thin (reaction time index of pro-thinness) was 0.26 (95% CI: 0.12~0.39, P<0.01), indicating that young and middle-aged people' reaction speed was faster when they agreed with thinness and participants had the desire to be thin. The score of D fat (reaction time index of anti-obesity) was -0.09 (95% CI: -0.21~0.03, P>0.05), indicating that young and middle-aged people had no bias against overweight/obesity. Conclusions:Young and middle-aged people generally have the performance of implicit thinness, with a strong desire for thinness and no implicit bias towards overweight.
