Abstract
ABSTRACT The current project, guided by the memorable messages framework and Self -Determinism Theory, sought to uncover information regarding messages Black women encounter that may influence their health-related behavior. More specifically, the project focused on learning more about the diet and exercise related messages these individuals have received. Participants completed an online survey. Analysis of 122 participant responses from Black women (M = 37.04; SD = 9.10), primarily living in the United States, revealed many generic messages as well as communication specifically focused on diet and exercise practices. Messages focusing on the bodily appearance of the message recipient were also identified. Results indicate future research should investigate the influence of message source, content, and valence on the diet and exercise habits of Black women.
