Description: This body image study tests the viability of transferring a complex psychophysical paradigm from a controlled in-person laboratory task to an online environment. The results of these judgements will then be compared to the results of two laboratory-based studies to establish three key findings. First, whether the accuracy of online and in-lab estimates of body size is comparable, whether the same patterns of visual biases in judgements are shown both in-lab and online, and whether online data shows the same view-orientation advantage in accuracy in body size judgements as the laboratory studies.
