“…For example, those with high evaluative concerns may be at increased risk for succumbing to sociocultural pressures to be thin, possibly due to pressure to conform to a certain sorority identity and more frequent opportunities for physical appearance comparison. Extant work suggests that, relative to other college women, sorority members may be more likely to conform to social norms related to subscription to the thin ideal of feminine beauty (Basow, Foran, & Bookwala, 2007; Cashel et al, 2003), eating behavior (Basow et al, 2007; Crandall, 1988), alcohol consumption (Larimer, Turner, Mallet, & Geisner, 2004; Neighbors, Lee, Lewis, Fossos, & Larimer, 2007), and other health risk behaviors (Scott-Sheldon, Carey, & Carey, 2008). These potential differences would suggest that this group is even more at risk than college women in general.…”
