The Construction of the Three-Dimensional Model of Cognitive-Behavioral Dissonance of Female Weight Control

This paper reviewed the present research achievements and progresses in the domain of female weight control cognitive behavioral dissonance,and pointed out the limitations in the current studies.Based on the literature review and the preliminary studies,a three-dimensional model of female weight control cognitive behavioral dissonance was proposed.This model should be composed of three dimensions,namely individual weight control cognitive behavioral state,weight value and personality characteristics.These dimensions,as joint forces,would determine the degree and tendency of female weight control cognitive behavioral dissonance.
