The present research explored the hypotheses that American adolescents have more negative obesity stereotypes than Chinese adolescents and that the effects of culture are mediated by weight attributions and thin idealization.

Not only did stereotypes differ between countries, but generalizations of negative characteristics from obese figures increased with age. In addition, American adolescents more firmly endorsed the \u2018thin ideal\u2019 and were more likely to attribute obesity to internal causes that Chinese adolescents. As anticipated, between\u2010country differences in stereotyping were mediated by thin idealization and causal attributions. Findings are discussed in terms of the \u2018doctrine of the mean\u2019, social identity theory, and dual\u2010process theories.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:label\/>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      <jats:boxed-text content-type=\"box\" position=\"anchor\">\n                        <jats:caption>\n                          <jats:title>Statement of Contribution<\/jats:title>\n                        <\/jats:caption>\n                        <jats:p>The development of obesity stereotypes has been the subject of a number of recent studies.
