Abstract
In Western countries a very negative view of overweight and obesity is widespread, so heading to prejudice and discrimination. 10-year-old children's perception of overweight body shapes were investigated, through the assessment of some silhouette figures showing thin and heavy children. The overweight body shape was associated with low well-being, unhealthy eating, and weakness.
