  • Satisfaction with body-image in cross-cultural context = Zadovoljstvo s telesno podobo v medkulturni povezavi
    Varela-Silva, Maria Inês ; Vasconcelos, Olga
    Several disciplines, such as anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics, provide fundamental explanations about the way we perform voluntary movements and about the way we express ourselves physically. ... The field of Sport Sciences andits subfields, such as Motor Development, Motor Control and Motor Learning,also give important contributions. From these fields we get a better understanding about our bodies and the way that body size, body shape, posture, attitudes and movement are linked with several means of physical expression. Nevertheless, there are considerable differences between what our bodies can do and what, all of us, as individuals from specific sociocultural groups, with specific patterns of behavior, really may do with our bodies. In this paper we focus on some sociocultural determinants of body image, including mass media, dressing, cosmetics, and the family environ- ment in several cultural contexts. All of'the influences on the human body suggest to us that the members of each human group carry in their bodies the marks of their society and their culture. Culture is carved into the human body and thehuman body reproduces the entire society.
