4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The study will use a between-subjects design in a sample of individuals with BMI greater than or equal to 28 from the Los Angeles community (N=330). Participants will be randomly assigned to a weight stigma vs. control manipulation. Changes to the following health behaviors will be subsequently measured in their everyday lives: 3-day diet as captured by ecological momentary assessment (EMA) food diaries, objectively measured eating of obesogenic foods, objectively measured physical activity captured by 24-hour actigraphy, and sleep, captured objectively by overnight actigraphy and subjectively self-reported sleep measures. The investigators hypothesize that weight stigma causes decrements in health behaviors (e.g., sleep, eating, and physical activity) in everyday life.

This study seeks to determine what price consumers are willing to pay for a sunscreen product containing their ideal combination of attributes or qualities. This study will assess consumer preferences for various sunscreen qualities, as well as the relative contribution of each preference to the consumer's monetary valuation of a complete sunscreen product. The hypothesis is that respondents' willingness to pay for each sunscreen attribute will vary by demographic characteristics, especially self-identified race and socioeconomic class
Shave biopsies are often uncomfortable during the healing process.
