Abstract
- Issues regarding the possibility that teenage daughters model their mothers' diet-related thoughts and behaviors are discussed. Findings indicated that modeling effects alone could not adequately explain the diet-related patterns, and intervening variables such as a daughter's degree of identification with her mother or a mother's verbal reinforcement of a modeled attitude may also provide an effect.
