Abstract:

Women's body-image has social and personal implications. Judgments about the body can be based on appearance (public body-consciousness), internal sensations (private body-consciousness) or body-effectiveness (body-competence). The correlates of body-image and beautification were studied in a group of 245 female undergraduates who completed a body-beautification questionnaire, the Body-consciousness Inventory, the Body-cathexis/Self-cathexis Scale, and questions on feminist identification. Significant correlations were found between public body-consciousness and beautification. Body-cathexis was also correlated with body-competence. For feminists, a competent body was correlated with awareness of internal sensations, while nonfeminists connect a competent body with appearance. Results were discussed in relation to the social and cultural pressures for women to focus on appearance.

Abstract:

College students (56 women and 43 men) attending state colleges in the southwestern United States were tested for body-image dissatisfaction using a computer-based graphical body-image task. A reliable relationship between desired stature and desired body-image was observed for the women. Women of large stature showed a greater discrepancy between verbally reported desired stature and redrawn images of desired stature than women of average or smaller than average stature. No reliable discrepancy between desired body-image and verbally reported desired stature was shown by the men.

Abstract:

Introduction: Body image dissatisfaction and disordered eating behavior increase during college. Objectives: To identify symptoms of eating disorders and body image dissatisfaction in college students and to verify the relationship between eating disorders and body image dissatisfaction. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 408 college students (283 females), aged 18-23y, enrolled in the first semester of health science in public universities from Recife-PE. Symptoms of eating disorders and body image dissatisfaction were assessed by self-report questionnaires (EAT-26, BITE, BES, BSQ). Results: Body image dissatisfaction was independently associated with a 22-fold increased risk for anorexia nervosa, 18-fold for bulimia nervosa and 25-fold for binge eating. Female college students (32.5%; CI95%=27.2-38.1%) have higher symptoms of eating disorders than males (18.4%; CI95%=12.3-25.9%). Specifically for bulimia, both females (26.1%; CI95%=21.3-31.5%) and males (21.6%; CI95%=15.1-29.5%) are at greater risk of developing this illness. Conclusion: The current findings provide preliminary evidence about risks of college health sciences students with body image dissatisfaction to develop eating disorders.

Abstract:

This study examined the differences in the measures of perception of body shape and body affect among Chinese and American college male and female students. 289 Chinese students in China and 180 American students in the United States voluntarily completed the Body-image Questionnaire, comprised of four categories: (a) anthropometric data, (b) self-perception of body shape, (c) body affect, and (d) desired body shape. American students were significantly more likely than Chinese students to perceive their body shapes as being larger, but both Chinese and American students tended to perceive their body shapes accurately. For body affect, both Chinese and American female students who perceived themselves as thin had positive feelings about their bodies, while both groups of female students who perceived themselves as heavy had negative feelings about their bodies. American women were more likely than Chinese women to have negative feelings about their bodies. American students also placed high value on muscular firmness as part of their ideal female body shape, while Chinese students added plumpness as another component for judging ideal female body shape. Both Chinese and American men valued physical strength as a major component for body satisfaction.

Abstract:

Whether or not the association between physical characteristics and body image satisfaction varies by gender was investigated. The sample included 148 male and 104 female college students aged 19-27 years. To assess body image satisfaction, the Body Image Satisfaction Questionnaire (Berscheid, Walster, & Bohrnstedt, 1973) was used. Body fat, waist to hip, chest to shoulder ratio, weight, and height were measured. The results indicate that males had significantly greater body image satisfaction than did females. There was a small but significant correlation between physical characteristics and body image satisfaction for females but not for males. The regression model, consisting of bodily measures, predicted a significant variance in female body image satisfaction. The same model failed to explain male body image satisfaction.

Abstract:

Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to determine whether there is an association between body image satisfaction/dissatisfaction among college students and meal consumption at restaurants. Methods Four surveys were used to collect all data: NEMS-P, SATAQ-3, SATAQ-4 and the EDE-A. NEMS-P was used to assess the food and nutrition environment, SATAQ-3 was used to assess societal influences on body image, SATAQ-4 was used to assess the internalization of appearance ideals and the EDE-A survey was used to measure eating disorder psychopathology. Participants had to be enrolled as a student during the 2019–2020 academic year on the college campus where this study occurred to participate. Pearson and Spearman correlation were used to assess association between restaurant meal consumption and body image. Chi-square test was used to analyze categorial variables (n = 185). Results There was a significant association between students who were unhappy with their weight consuming meals more frequently at fast-food restaurants compared to sit down restaurants (P < 0.001); there was also a significant association between students who were unhappy with their weight choosing to eat at a combination of restaurants (fast-food, food courts, cafeteria's etc.) more frequently than sit-down restaurants (P < 0.05). A significant association was also noted between students who were unhappy with their shape choosing to eat more frequently at fast-food restaurants compared to sit-down restaurants (P < 0.05). Conclusions A higher mix of fast-food and fast casual restaurants on the college campus may contribute to an obesogenic environment, while the availability of sit-down restaurants may contribute to a more healthful eating environment. Creating a supportive nutrition environment on college campuses by increasing the availability of healthy food choices and providing resources that can assist students with developing a healthy relationship with food and their bodies is important for overall health, well- being and academic success.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to describe and identify body image problems in non-clinical female university students in Surabaya. Participants were female university students (N = 143) aged 18 to 21 years old, obtained through purposive sampling. This survey used Likert type scale (2 scales) and a pictorial scale as the research instruments. The data collected were analyzed with descriptive statistics and cross tabulation of demographic questionnaire. The results showed that there was a gap between the desired body perception and the real one. The prominent behavior was compulsive behavior. Body image problems, which comprised of body image dissatisfaction, cognitive distortion, and body image compulsive behavior were also experienced by some young women in normal population even when their body mass index were normal.

Abstract:

This study investigated the attitudes of body-tanning behaviors: suntanning, tanning bed, tanning spray, and sunless tanning product use. Data collected from 208 female college students ( M age=19.8 yr., SD = 2.0; M weight = 63.3 kg, SD = 2.0; M height = 165.9cm, SD = 8.1) online. The questionnaire comprised four constructs: appearance-based, health-based, and emotion-based tanning attitudes, and body-tanning behaviors. Both appearance-based and emotion-based pro-tanning attitudes were associated with significantly higher body-tanning behaviors. However, health-based pro-tanning attitudes did not significantly affect body-tanning behaviors. The results from both UV- and non-UV exposure-related tanning behaviors provide future intervention strategies, such as establishing a positive body image without a tan and identifying negative emotional consequences as a result of tanning.

Abstract:

Nutrition college students as a representatives in society is required to have ideal and healthy body. Besides aff ected by those demands, body image is also aff ected by nutritional status and energy intake. A good knowledge of nutrition is not always followed by appropriate practices as well as normal nutritional status and average energy intake. This research was aimed to analyze the relationship of energy intake and nutritional status with body image of nutrition college students of Universitas Airlangga. This research was an observational analytic study using cross sectional design. The sample size were 71 nutrition college student, taken by proportional random sampling. The observed variables were body image, energy intake, and nutritional status. Datas were analyzed used the Pearson correlation test, Spearman correlation test, and Chi Square. The results showed that 54.9% of nutrition college students had negative body image perception, normal energy intake (52.1%), and normal nutritional status (67.6%). There was correlation between body image with energy intake (p = 0.007) and nutritional status (p = 0.001). It is concluded that high intake of energy and overweight may leads to negative body image. Nutrition college students should make the right eff ort in achieving their desired ideal body weight through manage their food intake and doing weight monitoring routinely

Abstract:

Background: Obesity can lead to various health problems including psychosocial problems. Obesity also relates to body image which may affect psychosocial health.Objective: To examine the relationship between obesity, body image, and perceived stress among college students in Yogyakarta Province.Method: This study is a cross-sectional design in 150 college students (75 boys and 75 girls) at Universitas Gadjah Mada and Universitas Technology Yogyakarta. Perceived stress was measured using 10 items of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), body image was evaluated using 16 items of the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ-16) and obesity was estimated using the percentage of body fat calculated from anthropometric measurements. Chi-square test, Spearman correlation analysis, and odds ratio were used to test the hypotheses.Results: There was significant correlation between obesity and body image in male (r= 0.32, p<0,01) and female students (r= 0.23, p<0,05). Obese male students were 7 times likely to have negative body image than non-obese male students. While no significant relationship was found between obesity and perceived stress, non-obese students had almost two times likely to perceive stress. Similarly, body image was not significantly related to perceived stress in male and female students, however, it was likely that students with negative body image had about 1,5 times to feel stress than those with positive body image.Conclusion: Obesity was significantly associated with body image among male and female college students in Yogyakarta Province. However, no significant relationship was found between obesity and perceived stress as well as between body image and perceived stress among the students.

Abstract:

Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to i) assess the food and nutrition environment of a Midwest state college campus ii) examine the association between the food and nutrition environment and its association between food choices and body image. Methods College students on a Southwest state college campus completed a food environment survey(NEMS-P), a demographic survey and a body image survey comprised of SATQ-3, SATQ-4 and additional questions regarding social media use and dormitory food rules (n = 188). To assess whether there was an association between students (freshmen, sophomore, juniors, seniors) having healthier foods available and less occurrences of trying control weight or shape, a binomial linear model was used to determine causal relationship between responses. Chi square test and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to determine whether there was an association between how college students feel about their weight or shape and concern regarding nutritional content of food available. Results There was a significant association between college students being both unhappy with their shape and weight and grocery shopping with weight control in mind (p < 0.05). There was a significant association (P < 0.01) between freshmen being unhappy with their weight and higher occurrences of eating at “healthier” restaurants. Students having more fruit, vegetables and whole grains available and less occurrences of trying to cut down on food to control weight or shape was statistically significant at 10%, but was not statistically significant at 5%, estimate value equal to 0.488 (P ≤ 0.0645). Conclusions Assessing the nutrition environment can provide valuable information that has the potential to positively shape policies and practices that create a nutrition environment that supports students in making healthy choices, identify weight management opportunities, and also potentially reduce barriers to healthy behaviors on the college campus. The campus nutrition environment can provide students the opportunity to learn about and practice healthy eating through available foods and beverages, nutrition education and messages about nutrition in the cafeteria/food service areas and throughout the college campus.

Abstract. Studied more extensively in Western societies, body image in other cultures is less researched. South Korea provides a unique context to examine body image given its flourishing plastic surgery industry, which is indicative of negative body image and plastic surgery acceptance. The current study examined whether relevant sociocultural factors in South Korea (i.e., fear of negative evaluation [FNE] and filial piety [FP]) play a role in the association between body image and acceptance of plastic surgery. College students in South Korea ( n = 227) completed self-report measures of body image, FNE, FP, and acceptance of plastic surgery. Students with plastic surgery experience reported greater FNE and acceptance of plastic surgery than those without. Significant negative indirect effects of body image on acceptance of plastic surgery through FNE were found in the full sample. FP was found to moderate the body image-acceptance of plastic surgery link such that for individuals low in FP, lower body areas satisfaction was associated with greater acceptance of plastic surgery. The findings highlight the importance of understanding body image within a cultural context and provide implications for body image concerns in South Korean individuals.

Abstract:

Body image and self-perception about weight, irrespective of their actual body mass index, may predispose young females to disordered eating behaviour. A study was conducted to determine body image disturbance, weight perception and body mass index among female college students in Delhi having normal and disordered eating behaviours. The study sample comprised 734 female under-graduate students between 18-21 years from women’s colleges of Delhi University. An interview-cum-questionnaire schedule was used to assess the general profile of subjects and perceptions about their body weight. Adapted Eating Attitudes Test (EAT)-26 and Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ)-8c was used to determine disordered eating behaviour and body image disturbance among the subjects respectively. Body Mass Index of the subjects was also computed. Findings revealed a significant difference in self-perception about body weight among subjects showing normal and disordered eating behaviours. Higher percentage of subjects from disordered eating group perceived themselves to be either overweight or obese as compared to subjects from normal eating behaviour group.Significantly higher BSQ-8c scores and Body Mass Index were also observed among subjects having disordered eating behaviour. The study indicated that poor body image, self-perception about body weight being high as well as high body mass index played a significant role in occurrence of disordered eating behaviour among female college students in Delhi.The study depicted the urgent need to have appropriate health and nutrition education programmes for female college students to improve their perceptions about body shape and weight to further prevent the occurrence of disordered eating behaviour among them and make them less vulnerable to consequent nutritional problems.

Abstract:

This study aims to explore the association between restrained eating, body image, and dietary intake among Chinese college students. This cross-sectional study included 1301 college students at two universities in Hunan Province. Electronic questionnaires were used to collect information including students’ demographic characteristics, restrained eating, perception of body weight, body satisfaction, and dietary intake. Anthropometric measurements were collected to calculate body mass index (BMI). The prevalence of high restrained eating was 52.8%. Students who were dissatisfied with their bodies or overestimated their body weight showed a higher tendency toward high restrained eating (p < 0.05). Students with high restrained eating tended to eat fruits and eggs more frequently, while the frequency of eating domestic animals and poultry, sugar-sweetened beverages, and fast food were the opposite. Moreover, high restrained eating was a risk factor for low dietary diversity (odds ratio (OR) = 1.384, 95% confidence interval: 1.002~1.912). The high incidence of restrained eating among Chinese college students and its energy-restricted diets that may lead to possible health implications require attention. Further studies are needed to investigate the characteristics of college students’ restrained eating to tailor appropriate interventions for forming positive body images and promoting healthy eating behaviors, thus, improving dietary quality.

Abstract:

Three groups of students from a large midwestern university (15 varsity swimmers, 15 varsity football players, and 15 nonathletes) were administered a 20-item questionnaire concerned with body image and subsequently underwent skinfold measurements to assess percent body fat. Scores obtained were correlated to estimate the relationship between body image and adiposity. For the groups combined ( N = 45) the relationship was significant and inverse ( r = − 0.51). For the nonathletic group a significant value − 0.76 was found; for the two groups of athletes there was no relationship ( rs = 0.002 and − 0.059 for football players and swimmers, respectively). We conclude that body image as measured in this study is inversely related to percent body fat among college men, especially among students not engaged in varsity sports.

Abstract:

Objective: To evaluate the body image of university students in the course of nutrition. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 181 students of both genders from the Nutrition Undergraduate of Maranhão, Brazil. The presence and degree of dissatisfaction with body shape were evaluated by Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ 34), another instrument used in this study was Body Figure Silhouettes (BFS). Results: The participants presented mean age of 23.1 (±5.2) years, majority women (89.5%). Most of the subjects were eutrophic (66.9%) according to BMI, and no image perception disorder according to BSQ34. According to the BSF, 56 students had the silhouette represented by figure 4, however, the figure most desired by 111 students was demonstrated by silhouette 3, (p-value 0.000). Demonstrating the desire for weight loss of the majority, despite being represented by a silhouette eutrophic. Conclusion: Most (66.9%) eutrophic, according to BMI and without image disturbances (54.7%) according to BSQ 34. However, there is a trend of overweight and obese individuals presenting with image disorders.

Abstract:

Introduction: Body image satisfaction (BIS) may have an effect on body weight, which in turn contributes to healthier lifestyle practices. The present study aimed to measure the BMI of students, and to relate this to the students’ own perceptions of their body image and assessing body image satisfaction using the Stunkard figure rating scale. Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out on 200 students selected by stratified random sampling technique. Variables that were used in the current study are perception of self-body size, ideal body size, and body size satisfaction. The assessment was carried out using the Stunkard figure rating scale. Results: Mean age of the students was 20.4 years. Mean BMI of the boys was 25.63 and of the girls was 25.09. There was a significant difference between perceived body size and body size as per BMI. Overall the girls had significantly more satisfaction with their body image as compared to boys. The body image satisfaction and BMI had positive correlation. Most of the time students thought they were thinner than they actually were, with obvious implications for health and health seeking behaviour. Conclusions: Correct perception of the body size may become the motivation to lose weight and contribute to high success rate in attaining it. A wholesome community approach is needed to change weight status perceptions and improve exercise and dietary behaviour

Abstract:

The current study was an expansion of one by Cash, Novy, and Grant in 1994, in which responses of 101 female nursing students were examined for associations between reasons for exercise, frequency of exercise, and body-image satisfaction. In the current study, 78 male and 100 female undergraduates between the ages of 18 and 25 years ( M = 21.2, SD=1.9) from various majors completed a demographics/frequency of exercise survey, two body-assessment inventories, and the Reasons for Exercise Inventory of Silberstein, Striegel-Moore, Timko, and Rodin. Contrary to Cash, et al.'s findings, only health and fitness reasons were predictive of women's frequency of exercise, and women's dissatisfaction with specific bodily attributes was not significantly related to any reasons for exercising; however, like women in their sample, the current students who experienced more situational body dissatisfaction exercised for appearance and weight control. Sex comparisons indicated similar dissatisfaction with specific bodily attributes among men and women, but values were not significantly associated with any reasons for exercising. Women reported higher situational body dissatisfaction and exercising for appearance-related reasons more than men. Current participants may represent a more diverse group than previously tested, and the inventory's factor structure may not be generalizable to men and women.

Abstract:

Senior Seminar students for their research project investigated, “Perceptions of college students on the effects of body image in today’s society.” In this study, student researchers focused on the way body image was exemplified amongst college students from five factors: 1) their mental development, 2) realistic fashion sense, 3) athletics, 4) nutrition, and 5) the physical wear and tear of its image. The study consisted of 100 individuals on the campus of The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff who had given time and knowledge to the situation. Through a series of analyses on the surveys administered as well as a graphing, student researchers were able to connect the survey with their general assumptions and theories on the perspectives of body image. While researching, key concepts were identified which provided a better clarification of perspectives on the body’s image. Students who experienced the judgment of their body’s image were prone to being affected in each of the five brackets mentioned above. The five areas focused on were important in understanding just how a person was affected, and the stages they endured as well. The researchers observed that the image society displays as the perfect body is viewed through different lenses around campuses today. This topic was not only important to research, but also a step forward in building stronger confidence amongst growing individuals in college today.
