Abstract

Examined the possibility that experimenter gender may have an effect on female body size estimations, by assigning 64 female Ss to a male or female experimenter and asking them to estimate body widths for the waist, hips, and thighs. Experimenter gender had no effect on levels of size-estimation accuracy.
