Wow thank you guys so much! I got more than double the responces I needed. I also posted my survey link on Yahoo Answers but I think the majority of the responces came from you guys. For those of you wondering, my class is called Social Research Methods. It's basically how to conduct research in Sociology. I'm not a Sociology major, I'm actually an Urban Studies major but it's a required course for me.

Here's some of the results: 80 people took this survey (I only needed 30 LOL)

Age Range: 25+ was the majority
Ethnicity: Caucasian was the majority
Have you used diet pills: 36.3% yes 63.8% no
Did you take them as a last resort: 11.3% yes, 25% no 63.8% N/A never taken them

I'll just post the top 3 Percentages:
Using the Body Scale, the number that represents your body best: 30% said #6, 25% said #4, 18% said #5

Using the Body Scale, the number that represents ideal body for women: 45% said #4, 36% #3, 13% #2 (I found this the most interesting, we think we should be really skinny!)


Important for you to look good for yourself or for others? 90% said myself, 10% said others
Are diet pills safe? 90% said no, 10% said yes

Thank you all so much again!

I guess I should post the Body Image picture for you guys cause I don't think you can view the survey again to look. Here it is if you want to remember what the numbers were and then read my post above to see the top 3 chosen for both questions.

Interesting stuff! Thanks for sharing! I got my BA in Psychology - my BFF did a lot of body image research when we were in undergrad. It was always interesting.

Very interesting stuff. What number body image picture is considered the "ideal" by medical professionals? Thanks for sharing the results.
