Abstract

Objective: Body image is a complex and multifaceted construct encompassing at least perceptual, affective, cognitive, and possibly behavioral aspects of body experience. In the current Iranian society, increasingly the major focus is on the body’ s appearance, in particular on body shape and weight. Current societal standards for female beauty excessively emphasize the desirability of thinness; an ideal accepted by most females, but impossible for most of them to achieve. These body image concerns can be measured using Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ-AS). The present study aimed at testing the factorial structure and determining the Psychometric properties of the MBSRQ in female Iranian university students. Methods: The MBSRQ-AS was administered to 496 participants aged 16 to 39 selected using multistage cluster sampling method among the female students of Tehran University from 70 fields of study. Results: Exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the construct Validity of the questionnaire. Principal component analysis using Varimax rotations resulted in a five-factor structure (KMO=0. 56, Chi-square=5419. 80, df=561) including: appearance orientation, appearance evaluation, overweight preoccupation, self-classified weight and body areas satisfaction. confirmatory factor analysis showed that the extracted model had a good fit to the data (RMSEA =0. 064, NFI =0. 88, CFI =0. 91). Reliability analysis of total score of MBSRQAS and its subscales suggested good internal consistency (Cronbach’ s alpha coefficient for total scale=0. 83). Conclusion: In conclusion, the results of the current study provided strong evidence for Reliability and Validity of MBSRQ-AS as a multidimensional tool to measure body image among Iranian students.
