Ford, Imogene M.; Drake, Mary Frances
Home Economics Research Journal, v11 n2 p189-96 Dec 1982
White and Black collegiate females were administered questionnaires measuring self-image, body satisfaction, and the use of sexually attractive dress. The two groups differed significantly on adequacy of money for clothing, sexually attractive dress, and self-esteem, and were alike on body satisfaction, attitude toward unusual clothing, and flair in dress.
