Background: Body image shame considerably contributes to the development and persistence of eating and body image disorders. Objectives: The current study was done to determine the psychometric properties of the body image shame scale and introduce a suitable measure for researchers and therapists in the field of psychological health. Methods: In this study, 409 (136 men and 273 females) individuals who referred to cosmetic surgery clinics in Tehran were chosen. The construct validity of the body image shame was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis and divergent and convergent validity. To assess the divergent and convergent validity of the body compassion scale, appearance anxiety inventory, dysmorphic concern questionnaire and Forms of Self-Criticizing/Attacking and Self-Reassuring Scale were used. Internal Consistency and test-retest reliability (4 weeks’ interval) were used to evaluate reliability. LISREL V8.80 and SSPS V20 were used for data analysis. Results: The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the two-factor model (internal and external body image shame) fitted the data (RMSEA = 0.07, NFI = 0.94, CFI = 0.92). Body image shame scale had a positive, significant correlation with dysmorphic concern, appearance anxiety, and self-criticism, and a negative, significant correlation with body compassion (P < 0.05). Also, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, for the whole of scale, internal body image shame, and external body image shame were 0.85, 0.79, and 0.82, respectively. Conclusions: Psychometric properties of the persian version of the body image shame scale were confirmed in this study. Therefore, it can be used as a valid instrument in research and clinical works in populations with concerns about body image.

Disordered Eating Symptoms

IntroductionOn the onset of adolescence there is an increased vulnerability for mental health problems, namely disordered eating symptomatology. Disordered eating symptomatology has been described as a problem of psychological inflexibility. Psychological inflexibility related to eating behaviors, i.e., the adoption of inflexible idiosyncratic dietary rules without considering external and internal contingencies, is associated with disordered eating symptoms in adult populations. Nonetheless, the study of psychological inflexibility related to eating behaviors in adolescence is scarce.AimsThe current study aimed at examining the factor structure and psychometric properties of the Inflexible Eating Questionnaire for Adolescents (IEQ-A).MethodsParticipated in this study, 728 adolescents (513 girls and 215 boys), aged 14 to 18 years, who completed self-report measures of psychological inflexibility related to eating behaviors, body image, disordered eating symptoms and general psychopathology symptoms.ResultsResults of the confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the IEQ-A replicated the 11-item one-dimensional structure previously identified in adult samples. A multigroup analysis also demonstrated the scale's structure invariance between genders. The scale presented high internal reliability for both boys and girls (95). Correlation analyses confirmed the scale's convergence with psychological inflexibility with body image. IEQ-A was also positively associated with disordered eating symptoms and depression, anxiety and stress symptoms.ConclusionsFindings corroborated the adequacy of the IEQ-A factor structure and supported that this is a valid measure to assess psychological inflexibility related to eating behavior in adolescence. This measure is therefore of potential utility for clinicians and researchers focusing on eating-related difficulties in this vulnerable developmental stage.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.
