This study investigated the effect on current body dissatisfaction levels of a newly developed evaluative conditioning procedure that paired self-similar and self-dissimilar images of bodies with positive and neutral affective images, respectively. We hypothesized that learning the contingency that self-similar bodies predict positive affectivity is one process that could aid in explaining how these procedures function.\r\nMethods\r\nAdult women without disordered eating pathology participated in an online experiment with random assignment to an intervention or a control condition. All participants initially rated body images in self-similarity and were subsequently asked to categorize positive and neutral images by valence as quickly and accurately as possible. In the intervention condition, self-similar bodies systematically preceded positive images, and self-dissimilar images preceded neutral images, creating a similar body → positive contingency. Pairings in the control condition were unsystematic such that no contingency was present. We measured categorization latencies and accuracies to infer contingency learning as well as current body dissatisfaction immediately before and after exposure to the pairings. All participants further completed measures of trait body image concerns and disordered eating psychopathology at baseline, which we examined as moderators of an expected relation between condition assignment, contingency learning, and body dissatisfaction improvements.\r\nResults\r\nWe analyzed data from N = 173 women fulfilling the inclusion criteria. Moderated mediation analyses showed that assignment to the intervention (vs. control) condition predicted increased similar body → positive contingency learning, which in turn predicted improved body dissatisfaction post-intervention, but only among women with higher pre-existing trait body image concerns or disordered eating levels.\r\nConclusions\r\nThe findings point toward the relevancy of further exploring the utility of pairing procedures. Similar body → positive contingency learning predicted improved body dissatisfaction in individuals with normatively high body image concerns, which suggests pairing procedures could help inform future research on reducing body dissatisfaction."}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2050-2974"]},"pmid":"1","volume":12,"intvolume":"        12","external_id":{"pmid":["38268007"],"isi":["001148311200002"]},"title":"How evaluative pairings improve body dissatisfaction in adult women: evidence from a randomized-controlled online study","keyword":["Evaluative conditioning","Body image","Eating disorders","Contingency learning","Psychotherapy","Pairing procedures"],"article_number":"18","place":"London","quality_controlled":"1","_id":"13576","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2024","isi":"1","type":"scientific_journal_article","citation":{"ufg":"<b>Dumstorf, Katharina/Halbeisen, Georg/Paslakis, Georgios</b>: How evaluative pairings improve body dissatisfaction in adult women: evidence from a randomized-controlled online study, in: <i>Journal of Eating Disorders</i> 12 (2024), H. 1.","bjps":"<b>Dumstorf K, Halbeisen G and Paslakis G</b> (2024) How Evaluative Pairings Improve Body Dissatisfaction in Adult Women: Evidence from a Randomized-Controlled Online Study. <i>Journal of Eating Disorders</i> <b>12</b>.","chicago-de":"Dumstorf, Katharina, Georg Halbeisen und Georgios Paslakis. 2024.

Although it is commonly found that memory for the pairings increases EC, we argue that memory performance data obtained in the standard paradigm remain ambiguous. We hypothesize that memory for stimulus pairings may moderate EC by means of an intentional use of conscious recollection as well as through unintended effects of memory. In two experiments we used modified memory tests that distinguish between these different memory processes on an item-level by identifying recollection as the participant's ability to control memory performance. The analyses of the experiments showed that both intended and unintended influences independently moderate EC.

One of the most debated topics in EC research is whether or not EC is dependent on contingency awareness. In this study, we go beyond this debate by examining whether contingency awareness mediates the impact of attentional resources and goal-directed attention on EC. Attentional resources were manipulated by presenting CSs and USs either within the same modality or in different modalities. Goal-directed attention was manipulated by asking participants to respond to the CSs or to the USs. Results indicate that the effect of goal-directed attention on EC is mediated by contingency awareness, whereas the effect of attentional resources on EC is not.","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"Academic Press","author":[{"first_name":"Katharina","full_name":"Blask, Katharina","last_name":"Blask"},{"last_name":"Walther","first_name":"Eva","full_name":"Walther, Eva"},{"id":"85780","first_name":"Georg","full_name":"Halbeisen, Georg","last_name":"Halbeisen","orcid":"0000-0002-9529-2215"},{"first_name":"Rebecca","full_name":"Weil, Rebecca","last_name":"Weil"}],"external_id":{"isi":["000307607600003"]},"intvolume":"        43","volume":43,"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1095-9122"],"issn":["0023-9690"]},"title":"At the crossroads: Attention, contingency awareness, and evaluative conditioning"}]
