4. MY TOPIC ~ EATING DISORDERS/BODY IMAGE
According to Google an Eating Disorder is any of a range of psychological disorders characterized by abnormal or disturbed eating habits, and from THE National Eating Disorder Collaboration, Body Image is is the perception that a person has of their physical self and the thoughts and feelings that result from that perception. These feelings can be positive, negative or both and are influenced by individual and environmental factors.
EATING DISORDERS VS BODY IMAGE

5. Focus group results/summary
I operated 3 focus groups, in which I asked a vary of questions that get people thinking about eating disorders and eating in general.
For my three groups I made sure they were quite diverse groups so that I got a range of answers so I had more information which I could use to create/base my survey questions and my ad campaign material.
