Introducción: La malnutrición por exceso causa sobrepeso y obesidad, siendo un problema de salud pública, que se ha presentado en los primeros años de vida. Investigaciones realizadas han informado la existencia de insatisfacción corporal relacionada con el peso, debido a los estándares de belleza establecidos en la sociedad. Objetivo: asociar el índice de masa corporal con la insatisfacción corporal y percepción de la imagen corporal de los escolares. Materiales y métodos: estudio transversal con 610 escolares. El estado nutricional se clasificó según el puntaje z del IMC. Para determinar la insatisfacción corporal y la percepción de la imagen corporal, se aplicó una escala de imagen corporal infantil de siete fotografías, con un valor del 1 al 7 de acuerdo con el tamaño creciente, y el rango final del IMC. Se calculó la diferencia entre la figura que los participantes consideraron ideal y la forma corporal percibida. Resultados: el 47,3% presentaron sobrepeso y obesidad. La insatisfacción corporal fue mayor en las niñas con sobrepeso y obesidad (p = 0,013). El IMC correlacionó con la insatisfacción corporal (rho(608) = 0,480; p < 0,001) y la percepción de la imagen corporal (rho(608) = 0,433; p < 0,001). Conclusiones: El IMC se relacionó positivamente con la insatisfacción corporal y la percepción de la imagen corporal; esto podría elevar el riesgo de presentar trastornos alimentarios, contribuir al mantenimiento del exceso de peso corporal, al no percibirse con exceso de peso, es menos probable que realicen acciones para controlarlo.

The aim of this study was to examine a risk model for eating disorders and exercise dependence in women who regularly attend the gym. This study explored the impact of early maladaptive schemas, parental styles, coping mechanisms, sociocultural attitudes toward appearance, and anxious-depressive symptomatology. A total of 338 women (age range 18-40 years) participated in the study. The results suggest that early maladaptive schemas of imperfection/shame and inflexible standards, generated by parental styles characterized by less affective availability and focused on devaluative criticism, overexertion and internalization of guilt when stipulated standards are not met, lead to increased anxiety for social approval. Being approved becomes the only resource of self-validation found by the individual. Specifically, the results show that women who scored at risk for eating disorders and exercise dependence had higher levels of anxiety and depression. In turn, they more frequently used desiderative thinking and escape as coping mechanisms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Body image is the mental representation that each person has of his or her own body and psychological wellbeing arises when the state of mental functioning is in its best condition, discarding negative aspects. The main purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between body image and psychological well being in university students. The study had a quantitative approach, non-experimental design, correlational and cross-sectional scope. The sample consisted of 101 university students, 79 men and 22 women between 18 and 30 years of age. The Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) adapted by Solano and Cano in 2010 was used to evaluate the body image variable and the Ryff Psychological Well-Being Scale adapted to Spanish by Díaz in 2006 was used to evaluate psychological well-being. The results showed that there is no correlation between the variables; they do not present body image concerns (80.2%), and show high psychological wellbeing (39.6%). No relevant differences were found in psychological well-being according to sex. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Body image is the set of perceptions, thoughts, emotions and behaviors that a person has in relation to his or her own body, while alcohol consumption is a public problem worldwide, being a substance of greater consumption in adolescence. The objective of this study is to determine the relationship between body image and alcohol consumption in adolescents. The sample used was 120 students between 13 and 18 years of age from an educational unit. The research had a non-experimental quantitative approach with a cross-sectional and correlational scope. The Body Image Questionnaire (BSQ) created by Cooper, Taylor and Fairburn in 1996 and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) created by the World Health Organization in 1992 were used to measure the variables. The results showed that there is no significant relationship between these two variables (Rho= 0.145 p>0.05), as for sex there is no statistically significant difference between men (M=1.85) and women (M=2.96) with a (U=985, p>0.05).

The physical appearance of many people with disabilities leads them to feel stigmatised for not conforming to socially imposed ideals of beauty. These aesthetic standards convey lifestyles on Instagram that attract the attention of young audiences. In this regard, previous research has pointed out that people with disabilities also post self-representative images that are leading to new stereotypes of beauty with a potential impact on users without impairments. The aim of this research was to measure the attention and emotional intensity generated by a selection of posts on Instagram made by people with disabilities, in which they display their body image for aesthetic purposes, both in terms of beauty and fashion. Two neurocommunication techniques, eye tracking and galvanic skin response, were used on a sample of 120 Spanish and Portuguese university students who are regular Instagram users. The results indicate that young people without disabilities focus their attention on aspects of the image that clearly show a person's disability, especially regarding specific features, yet there were no appreciable changes in emotional intensity. The findings also highlight the need to integrate heightened awareness and sensitivity regarding the image of people with disabilities by using a cross-curricular approach in the educational system in order to promote full inclusion [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Body image concerns during pregnancy can lead to a number of problems. Understanding these concerns can help health professionals improve health care for pregnant women. Objective: Translate, adapt, and validate the Body Image Concerns During Pregnancy Scale for the Portuguese population (Escala de Preocupação com a Imagem Corporal Durante a Gravidez - EPICDG). Methodology: A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted with 231 pregnant women. The psychometric properties of the EPICDG were assessed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Results: The fit indices of the Portuguese 21-item version were identical to those of the original scale. The four-dimension model had the best fit (X2(176) = 446.320; p < 0.001, X2df = 2.536; CFI = 0.91; TLI = 0.89; GFI = 0.86; RMSEA = 0.077, p < 0.001). Conclusion: The results show that the EPICDG has adequate psychometric properties for assessing body image concerns during pregnancy in the Portuguese population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: People with disabilities have historically suffered from the stereotype of not reaching the prevailing standard of physical beauty. The rise of the movement known as body positivity on social media has allowed disabled athletes to portray themselves based on an observable disability. Methodology: The aim of this research is to determine the cognitive perception of 120 youthful Spanish and Portuguese university students regarding the image displayed by athletes with physical disabilities on Instagram. To this end, two neurocommunication techniques have been used: eye tracking, and galvanic skin response (GSR). Results: Overall, athletes attracted more attention to traits that explicitly show their disability than non-athletes with disabilities, as the latter portrayed themselves on Instagram from the perspective of beauty and fashion. Data related to emotional arousal corroborated the data related to attention. Discussion: It seems that specific aspects of an athlete’s disability continue to attract attention from the stereotypical viewpoint of an athlete’s body. The results regarding the focus on beauty and fashion may help to reduce the stigma of social identity perceived by the non-disabled public. Conclusions: These findings seem to indicate that self-portrayal on social networks based on beauty and fashion attracts more audience attention than others, due to the fact that such people present themselves as attractive rather than as people with disabilities, even when they specifically display their disabled trait, which is true in all of the cases.

La presente investigación describe la relación de la gordofobia con los trastornos alimentarios según la perspectiva de un grupo de adultos-jóvenes de la ciudad de Medellín. El método tuvo un enfoque cualitativo, en el que se utilizó como instrumento principal una entrevista semiestructurada aplicada a nueve jóvenes con rango de edad entre los 18 y 26 años, todos con diagnóstico de trastorno de conducta alimenticia (tca). Los resultados evidencian que la gordofobia causa diversas afectaciones físicas, psicológicas y psicosociales en los individuos que padecen de tca, entre ellas se resaltan la presión social por mantenerse jóvenes, delgadas y canónicamente bellas, el aislamiento social, la vergüenza, la depresión, la ansiedad y la alteración del estado de ánimo. Además, sufrieron discriminaciones y afecciones en la constitución psíquica y la autoestima. En conclusión, la exploración de las experiencias y relaciones entre el tca y la gordofobia en adultos jóvenes de Medellín revela la complejidad de las interacciones entre la salud mental y la percepción corporal. Se evidencia la necesidad de abordar de manera integral los aspectos psicológicos y socioculturales relacionados con los tca y la gordofobia para promover un enfoque de salud más inclusivo. La investigación destaca la importancia de sensibilizar a la sociedad sobre la diversidad corporal y fomentar un ambiente que apoye la aceptación y el bienestar emocional, especialmente entre los adultos jóvenes.

Introducción. La alteración de la autopercepción del estado nutricional (EN) es la discordancia entre el EN objetivo según índice de masa corporal (IMC), y la percepción del individuo. Los programas que se implementan en Chile con el objetivo de dar respuesta a las estrategias de promoción y prevención de salud, así como la vigilancia nutricional de la población bajo control del sistema público, utilizan el IMC como indicador del EN objetivo. Este estudio analizó la asociación entre la alteración de la autopercepción del EN el estilo y la calidad de vida en Chile. Metodología. Estudio transversal analítico de datos secundarios de 5.483 participantes de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud (ENS) 2016-2017 de ≥15 años. El EN fue determinado por IMC, y la autopercepción, la calidad y los estilos de vida se determinaron mediante auto reporte. Resultados. Se incluyeron 5.483 participantes representativo de 14,449,868 [95% IC 13.540.101-15.359.635] ≥15 años residentes en Chile. Se observó que el 51% de la población presenta discordancia del EN, 47% [95%CI 46.96 – 47.04] subestima su EN y 4.1% [95%CI 3.3-5.1] lo sobreestima. Quienes tuvieron un EN percibido y objetivo concordante, presentaron mejor percepción de la calidad de vida y mejor cumplimiento de algunas de las recomendaciones de las Guías Alimentarias Basadas en Alimentos (GABAs). Ser hombre > 30 años y tener < 8 años de escolaridad fueron los factores más influyentes en la discordancia de la autopercepción del EN. Conclusión. La discordancia del EN está asociada a un mayor riesgo de mala calidad de vida e incumplimiento de las GABAs en la población chilena de ≥ 15 años. Estos resultados sugieren la necesidad de considerar la autopercepción del EN como un determinante del comportamiento en salud en los programas y políticas públicas.

The objective of this paper is to analyse the anthropomorphic figures of the Madrid Codex, through the perspective of Mayan visual culture, to understand the forms of representation of the human body and thereby approach the way of assuming the body by the Yucatecan Mayans of the Postclassic Period. The general features of anthropomorphic figures are pointed out, the modules used to build them are characterized and the information offered by linguistic and anthropological research on the subject is used. The body is a totality of interrelated parts, the body is the vehicle for knowledge, communication, and action; in the body both the individual identity and the community character of the human being are expressed, it is also possible to identify the cultural construction that gives predominance to the masculine.

Specialized psychological interventions have been developed to reduce the negative impact on body image in patients with breast cancer; however, there are no systematic reviews to assess their efficacy. Objective. To evaluate the evidence and feasibility of psychological interventions available for body image problems in patients with breast cancer. Method. Fifteen articles emerged in four essential databases following the PIO system. Articles appeared between 2011 and 2020. There Seven interventions were analyzed using the PICO system. Additionally, the Shekelle criteria identified each intervention's level of evidence and recommendation. Results. 85% of the studies were conducted in high-income countries; 71% of interventions used individual modality; 71.42% used a face-to-face model, and 28.57% a digital version. The interventions implemented different approaches and strategies, such as cognitive behavioral components, hypnosis, and reflective writing, but all were brief, with an average of six sessions. Interventions with cognitive-behavioral components showed greater efficacy consistency, evidence level, and recommendations than the other studies. Discussion and conclusion. There are different alternatives for psychological intervention to attend body-image problems in patients with breast cancer. Interventions could have an impact even on distal variables, such as depression and quality of life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Since body image constitutes a cross-sectional axis in the quality of life of oncology patients, it is of great relevance to identify its impact on it, recognize its importance within the health-disease process, and include it in the approach and follow-up, to improve their quality of life. Methodology: An extensive literature review was carried out in freely accessible databases such as PubMed, BVS, Dialnet, and ClinicalKey, between August and September 2022; for this, MeSH terms such as "breast cancer", "body image", and "quality of life", in both English and Spanish, were used and related to the Boolean operator "and", in English, and "y", in Spanish. Results: 35 articles were selected, of which 2 used the EORTC QLQ C30, 7 used the EORTC QLQ-BR23 survey, 4 used BIS as the sole scale. On the other hand, 17 used the QLQ-BR23 and QLQ C30, one article used QLQ-BR23 and BIS, and only 4 used all three scales. Conclusions: It is important to carry out individualized management in patients with breast cancer, considering that their body image is negatively affected, which influences their quality of life. Regarding surgical management, it was determined that patients undergoing mastectomy have a greater impact on the perception of their body image. Finally, in patients managed with chemotherapy, deterioration of body image is evident as the treatment progresses, and hair loss represents a major concern for them. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Questionnaire of Sociocultural Influences on the Aesthetic Body Shape Model (CIMEC-26), in a population of young women. Method: The sample consisted of 799 women aged 12 to 30 years (M = 20.29, SD = 2.84). Two groups were included: control and clinical. Results: We observed an adequate internal consistency of the instrument (a = .90). The exploratory factor analysis revealed four factors: 1) Influence of advertising; 2) Influence of social models; 3) Influence of messages and social situations; and 4) Discomfort due to body image. These were ratified in the confirmatory factor analysis, presenting a good fit of the data: 1) significant chi square (X2 (274) = 727.45, p = .001); 2) GFI = .925; 3) AGFI = .976; 4) CFI = .935; 5) RMSEA = .075; 6) RMR = .043. Different cut-off points were explored, observing 22 as the most appropriate according to the sensitivity (66%) and specificity (100%) values. Conclusion: This version showed adequate consistency and construct validity. We observed the usefulness of this questionnaire for mental health professionals, wherefore the study is an important contribution to the field of eating disorders in Mexico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, we carried out the translation, adaption, and validation of the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3-Modified (SATAQ-3-M). The SATAQ-3-M is a self-report questionnaire with 18 items that measure the impact of social media on the internalization of beauty and body satisfaction. The SATAQ-3-M was translated using the reverse translation method. We included a group of nine judges to adapt the SATAQ-3-M to Puerto Rican cultural and linguistic characteristics; as a result, the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3-Modified-Spanish (SATAQ-3-MSpanish) was obtained. The validation of the SATAQ-3-M-Spanish was carried out with a sample of 185 Puerto Rican participants between the ages of 21 to 60 years through Survey Monkey platform. We conducted a biserial discrimination analysis, exploratory factor analysis with oblimin (oblique) rotation, and Cronbach's alpha. The SATAQ-3-M-Spanish questionnaire ended as a 17 items questionnaire with excellent internal consistency and two factors that explain 62.67% of the variance. The SATAQ-3-M-Spanish allows Puerto Rican health professionals and researchers to have a questionnaire in Spanish and adapted to the Puerto Rican population to measure the internalization of the ideals of beauty and body satisfaction through social media.

The use of social networks among adolescents may lead to relational, psychological and health problems. Several studies have shown the impact of the use of social networks in different areas of young people’s lives. Here, we analyze how the use of Instagram as social media influences adolescents’ body self-image. There are three objectives: (a) to describe behaviors related to adolescents’ body self-image, (b) to study the influence of sex and age on adolescents’ body self-image, and (c) to establish relationships between problematic use of social networks and body (self-)image. A cross-sectional design was used with a sample composed of 95 adolescents. The results indicate that the use of social networks influences the relationship with the body and self-image and that the number of daily hours spent on social networks, as well as family supervision, are variables that influence adolescents’ body image. Educational implications are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aimed to understand the therapeutic process provided by a short-term interventional practice centered on people with body self-esteem and self-image problems. Following a qualitative methodological design, the research and therapeutic interventions took place under the influence of the action research design. The following stages were used: planning the therapeutic process in light of the necessary and sufficient conditions for personality change and the therapeutic process phases; development of aid practice; action monitoring based on supervision, service review and semi-structured interviews with the participants; empirical phenomenological analysis of the affective impacts of therapy from the perspective of the clients assisted; understanding of this from the Rogerian framework. The following thematic axes related to the therapeutic process were elaborated and discussed: factors that led to the search for psychological help and constituted the therapeutic atmosphere; negative meaning of bodily experience; real meaning of the self-esteem experience in relation to the body; changes in attitudes towards self-perception and self-care. It was concluded that person-centered therapy produces significant affective impacts that helped these clients to deal with their body image and self-esteem experiences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
