Answer to Question 1

Research finds that whites show much more body dissatisfaction, dietary restraint, and a drive for thinness than their non-white counterparts. Clearly, these are all factors that set the stage for the development of abnormal eating patterns and, possibly, diagnosable eating disorders.
