Abstract:
A tanulmány az elhízás és a testképpel való elégedetlenség kapcsolatát vizsgálja elhízott személyeknél. A testképpel való elégedetlenség kockázati tényezői között a nemet, az elhízás mértékét, az életkort és a karcsúságideál internalizálását vizsgáltuk. Módszertan: Kutatási elrendezés: keresztmetszeti elrendezést és elérhetőségi mintavételt alkalmaztunk. Mérőeszközök: Testi Attitűdök Tesztje, Emberalakrajzok Tesztje, Vonásszorongás skála. Vizsgálati személyek: a minta 189 főből (99 nő és 90 férfi) áll. Életkori átlag 36,4 év (szórás: 9,74, terjedelem: 19-50 év). Testtömeg-index átlag 30,6 kg/m 2 (szórás: 4,42; terjedelem: 25,0–46,7 kg/m2). Eredmények: A testképpel való elégedetlenség kockázati tényezőinek vizsgálata során alátámasztást nyert a nem szerepe: a nők az elhízás mértékétől függetlenül szignifikánsan és nagymértékben elégedetlenebbek a testképükkel, mint a férfiak. Az életkor csak a nők esetében mutatkozott a testképpel való elégedetlenség kockázati tényezőjének: a fiatalabb nők kedvezőtlenebb attitűddel viseltetnek a testük iránt, mint az idősebbek. Az elhízás mértéke ugyancsak a testképpel való elégedetlenség rizikófaktorának bizonyult: a súlyfelesleg mértéke szignifikáns kapcsolatot mutatott a testképpel való elégedetlenséggel az életkor, az iskolai végzettség és a vonásszorongás kontrollálása mellett. Az összefüggés a férfiak esetében erősebbnek mutatkozott. A megjelenés szociokulturális standardjának (karcsú testideál) felismerése és elfogadása (azaz internalizálása) mindkét nem esetében előre jelezte a testképpel való elégedetlenséget; továbbá a vonásszorongás, az iskolai végzettség és az életkor kontrollja mellett a testképpel való elégedetlenség jobb magyarázó változójának bizonyult, mint a testtömeg-index. Konklúzió: A nemzetközi szakirodalom eredményeivel összhangban az általunk vizsgált, elhízott személyekből álló mintában a nem, az elhízás mértéke, az életkor és a karcsúságideál internalizálása a testképpel való elégedetlenség kockázati tényezőinek bizonyultak.

Abstract:
Body dissatisfaction can contribute to social, occupational and recreational losses, constituting a risk factor to health. This study aimed to evaluate the predictors of body dissatisfaction regarding demographic variables, media and life satisfaction among university students. The sample consisted of 321 participants older than 18 years. Body dissatisfaction, life dissatisfaction and media messages internalization were evaluated by Escala de Silhuetas para Adultos Brasileiros, Subjective Well-Being Scale and Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3, respectively. Data were collected by an online survey tool (SurveyMonkey®) and were analyzed using multiple linear regression. It was found that body dissatisfaction was positively related to inaccuracy in the perception of body size, Body Mass Index, life dissatisfaction, media messages internalization and television exposure. These findings evidence the importance of these predictors in the dynamics of body dissatisfaction, which support the development of preventive and treatment interventions.

Abstract:
To test the hypothesis that the irrational, evaluative beliefs, postulated by Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy, are associated with body dissatisfaction, 94 women (21 diagnosed with an eating disorder, 38 with high body dissatisfaction but without an eating disorder, and 35 with low body dissatisfaction) completed the Survey of Personal Beliefs and the Eating Disorders Inventory. Analysis showed no significant difference in body dissatisfaction between the Eating Disordered and High Body Dissatisfaction subgroups. No significant correlations between body dissatisfaction and irrational beliefs were found for the Eating Disordered subgroup. For the High Body Dissatisfaction subgroup, significant but low correlations were found between scores on body dissatisfaction and irrational standards for self and others and with negative self-rating. In terms of irrational beliefs the Eating Disordered and High Body Dissatisfaction subgroups showed a significantly greater tendency towards Catastrophizing, Low Frustration Tolerance, and Negative self-rating, compared to the controls, without any significant difference between the former two groups. The Eating Disordered subgroup but not the High Body Dissatisfaction subgroup differed significantly from the controls in terms of more Self-directed demands.

Abstract:
Introduction Body image dissatisfaction as negative evaluation of personal physical characteristics is often associated with low self-esteem, eating and affective disorders. What body regulation practices can people resort to when they are dissatisfied with their body image? Objectives The goal is to determine body image practices that help people to reduce tension caused by dissatisfaction with their body image. Methods We obtained the data by using a focus group technique. The group comprised 43 healthy undergraduate university students of both genders. Afterwards, the data were subject to analysis and systematization. Results The findings revealed 11 variants that represent the spectrum of body regulation practices, which semantically can form three groups. The first group combines adaptive regulation practices that help people successfully adapt to actual life situation, develop their capabilities concerning their physiology, personality, intellectual interests, and image making. The second group combines compensatory regulation practices that mainly focus on one of the sides of body regulation, which bear a certain threat to their health (weight control, building up muscle bulk, medical cosmetology procedures, body modification). The third group includes non-adaptive body regulation practices associated with high risk to their health and personal wellbeing (auto-aggressive, hetero-aggressive, and psychopathological). Conclusions Information about preferable body regulation practices used by people who are dissatisfied with their body image can help predict health hazards and disorders, as well as work out targeted prevention programs. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Abstract:
Feelings of body dissatisfaction are common in Western society, especially in women and girls. More than innocent discontent, body dissatisfaction can have serious consequences such as depression and eating disorders. The current article discusses the nature of body dissatisfaction, how it develops and how it is currently being treated. We also discuss novel strategies to increase body satisfaction that work on the automatic system (e.g., by retraining attentional and conditioning processes), since recent research suggests that appearance-related information is processed automatically. We suggest that extant methods should be combined with these novel strategies, in order to optimally improve body dissatisfaction and to prevent its detrimental consequences.

Abstract:
This thesis examined body dissatisfaction and body change behaviors among adolescent girls and boys from a biopsychosocial framework. The contribution of biological, psychological and sociocultural factors were examined in relation to body dissatisfaction, weight loss, weight gain and increased muscle tone behaviors among early adolescent girls and boys. In particular, pubertal maturation, body mass index (BMI), perception of body shape and size and psychological factors, such as depression, anxiety, ineffectiveness, self-esteem and perfectionism, were examined as possible factors that may precipitate or maintain body dissatisfaction and engagement in body change strategies. The sociocultural factors evaluated were the quality of family and peer relationships, as well as the influence of family and peers in predicting the adoption of specific body change strategies. The specific mechanisms by which these influences were transmitted were also examined. These included perceived discussion, encouragement and modelling of various body change strategies, as well as perceived teasing about body shape and size. A number of separate cross-sectional and longitudinal studies were conducted to examine the above relationships and identify the factors that contribute to weight loss, weight gain and increased muscle tone behaviors in adolescents. Study 1 examined the psychometric properties and principal components structure of the Bulimia Test Revised (BULIT-R; Thelen, Farmer, Wonderlich, & Smith, 1991) to assess its applicability to adolescent samples. Study 2 investigated the nature of body dissatisfaction and weight loss behaviors among 603 adolescents (306 girls and 297 boys) using a standardised questionnaire. This preliminary study was conducted to ascertain whether variables previously found to be relevant to adolescent girls, could also be related to the development of body dissatisfaction and weight loss behaviors among adolescent boys. Studies 3 and 4 described the development and validation of a body modification scale that measured weight loss, weight gain and increased muscle tone behaviors. Studies 5 and 6 were designed to modify an Excessive Exercise Scale developed by Long, Smith, Midgley, and Cassidy (1993) into a shorter form, and validate this scale with an adolescent sample. Study 7 investigated the factors that contribute to weight loss, weight gain and increased muscle among adolescent girls and boys both cross-sectionally and longitudinally (over one year). Structural equation modelling was used to examine associations among self-reported body dissatisfaction, body change strategies and a range of biological, psychological and sociocultural variables both cross-sectionally and longitudinally. Overall, the results suggested that both girls and boys experience body dissatisfaction and engage in a number of different body change strategies in order to achieve an ideal size. A number of gender similarities and differences were identified in the expression of body dissatisfaction and the adoption of body change strategies for both girls and boys. Girls were more likely than boys to report body dissatisfaction and engage in weight loss behaviors, while boys were more likely than girls to engage in weight gain and increased muscle tone behaviors. Generally, the same factors were found to contribute to weight loss, and more specifically, bulimic symptomatology, ad weight gain in both adolescent girls and boys. While a combination of biological, psychological and sociocultural factors contributed to bulimic symptomatology, only biological and psychological factors were found to contribute to weight gain in adolescents. The most notable gender differences were found in the model of increased muscle tone. Sociocultural and biological factors contributed to increased muscle tone behaviors in girls, while sociocultural and psychological factors were implicated in these behaviors in adolescent boys. With the exception of the model of increased muscle tone for boys, body dissatisfaction was a consistent factor in the adoption of body change behaviors. Consistent with previous investigations, the present thesis provides empirical support for the need to examine the etiology and maintenance of such concerns and behaviors from a multifaceted perspective.

Abstract:
The goal of the current study was to examine the relationship between muscle magazine consumption and body dissatisfaction. The study also examined the relationship between muscle magazine consumption and the amount of disparity between ideal and real body shape. Participants (N = 108) were recruited via study board, and also on a volunteer basis, from a mid-Western university with a population of 20,674 students. The first hypothesis stated that men with greater exposure to muscle magazines would indicate that their actual body shape falls further away from their ideal body shape, in terms of both muscularity and fat level, than men who read fewer magazines that focus on muscle building. The second hypothesis stated that men with greater exposure to muscle magazines would indicate higher levels of body dissatisfaction than men who read fewer magazines focused on muscle building. To evaluate the first hypothesis, a linear regression analysis was conducted to determine whether magazine consumption would predict the distance between real and ideal body shape, in terms of both fat and muscle content. Results did not support the first hypothesis and are not consistent with prior research that showed higher levels of muscle and fitness magazine consumption correlating positively with a greater drive for thinness and a greater drive for muscularity. Results did not support the second hypothesis: greater exposure to muscle magazines did not lead to greater levels of body dissatisfaction. Regression analysis found that there was no predictive relationship between muscle magazine consumption and body dissatisfaction or muscle magazine consumption and greater distance between ideal and real body shapes. Additional t-test analysis found that men who read muscle magazines actually indicated significantly lower levels of dissatisfaction with their bodies than men who did not read muscle magazines; however, that result is restricted to collegiate athletes only. Results from this study are important in that they indicate, in men, there are other factors involved in determining how individuals end up with increased levels of body dissatisfaction. Prior findings also concluded that men’s concerns with body shape thrive as a combination of multiple constructs involving social, personal, and mass media factors. Although magazine literature has some bearing on body image concern, particularly with women, it is unclear as to whether magazine consumption contributes to its effect on men. One limitation of this study is that participants reported on the degree to which they were dissatisfied with their bodies. Some individuals may not have acknowledged their level of dissatisfaction with their own bodies. Information based upon self-reporting measures may have been inaccurate due to under or over reporting in surveys. Another limitation of this study, particularly when using the results as a comparison tool toward previous studies, is that the measures used to determine levels of body dissatisfaction differ. Researchers abroad have used different measures to arrive at what would be considered similar conclusions regarding body dissatisfaction. There are multiple measures that can be used to determine a person’s level of satisfaction and drive for muscularity. Some measures are better than others at capturing variable characteristics. Another important limitation is that muscle magazines only represent one form of media consumption. A study that incorporated other forms of media may be more fruitful in its findings. Therefore, results should be interpreted with caution. However, with everexpanding information technology capabilities, society is increasingly bombarded with information more so than ever before. This study provides additional insight into the question of whether or not more is better. It also identifies a gender difference in the predicting power of magazine consumption and body dissatisfaction.

Abstract:
A history of body dissatisfaction may lead to lifelong emotional problems among women. Throughout life, a female's social environment may protect her from body image disturbances or exacerbate them. There are few studies investigating older women's experiences with long term body dissatisfaction. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore and understand women's experiences with lifelong body dissatisfaction. More specifically, the objective of this study was to explore and better understand the personal body dissatisfaction triggers and outcomes of women's persistent body dissatisfaction. Seven adult women (Mean age = 55 years) were interviewed to better understand their lifelong body image struggles and health implications. Personal body image triggers were identified as: weight, appearance, health, social comparison, and significant others. A perception of being overweight and the desire to maintain weight and a youthful appearance were described as the most significant triggers of body dissatisfaction. The influence of social comparison and the perception of significant others' expectations on body dissatisfaction were present across all participants' lives. Cognitive (e.g., constant rumination and self-acceptance), behavioural (e.g., health and appearance related behaviours), affective (e.g., negative and positive body-related emotions), and social outcomes (e.g., social physique anxiety) of body dissatisfaction were found. The importance of better understanding women's body dissatisfaction experiences across the lifespan is discussed. The importance of recognizing individual differences among women and their body dissatisfaction experiences is also emphasized.
La présence d'antécédents d'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle chez la femme peut mener à des troubles émotifs qui perdurent tout au long de sa vie. Au cours d'une vie, l'environnement social de la femme peut la protéger des perturbations de l'image corporelle ou, au contraire, peut les exacerber. Il existe peu d'études au sujet de l'insatisfaction de l'image à long terme chez la femme plus âgée. C'est pourquoi cette étude phénoménologique avait pour but d'explorer et de comprendre les expériences d'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle chez la femme. Plus spécifiquement, les objectifs ciblent les déclencheurs personnels de l'insatisfaction et les conséquences de cette insatisfaction. Des entrevues ont été réalisées auprès de sept femmes (âge moyen 55 ans) afin de mieux comprendre les effets des perceptions négatives de leur image au cours de leur vie et les conséquences de celles-ci sur la santé. Les déclencheurs de l'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle au niveau de la personne ont été identifiés comme étant : le poids, l'apparence physique, la santé, les différences sociales et la perception des proches. Une perception de surpoids, le désir de vouloir maintenir son poids et la volonté de conserver une apparence jeune ont été les éléments déclencheurs de l'insatisfaction corporelle les plus souvent mentionnés. Par ailleurs, l'influence des différences sociales et la perception des attentes des proches au sujet de l'insatisfaction de leur image corporelle ont été présentes tout au long de la vie des participantes. Ainsi, des aspects en relation avec l'insatisfaction corporelle ont été trouvés, et ce, aux niveaux: cognitif (c.-à-d. les ruminations mentales et l'acception du soi), comportemental (c.-à-d. la santé et des comportements reliés à l'image), affectif (c.-à-d. des émotions positives et négatives en relation avec l'image corporelle) et à celui des impacts sociaux (c.-à-d. l'anxiété physique sociale). De plus, l'importance de mieux comprendre les expériences d'insatisfaction de l'image corporelle tout au long de la vie a été discutée, celle de reconnaitre les différences individuelles chez les femmes et leur expérience d'insatisfaction sont aussi soulignées.

Abstract:
Body objectification theories propose that humans have an innate desire to compare themselves with others. When self-objectification is influenced by media exposure to idealized body images, results may be unrealistic self-perceptions and increased risk of depression, eating pathology, and overexercising. Although considerable work has been done to study these processes among women, much less is known about effects of media exposure on adult men. In response to this gap, this quantitative research study examined effects of exposure to an idealized man's body image on men observers' body dissatisfaction and related behaviors. A convenience sample of 119 freshman and sophomore community college men ranging in ages 18 to 29 was assigned to 1 of 2 conditions where they were exposed to images of male models with idealized bodies or to a neutral landscape image (independent variable). They completed questions to assess their body dissatisfaction, drive for muscularity, disordered eating, and depression. BMI and workout frequency also were assessed as covariates. It was predicted that body dissatisfaction, drive for muscularity, disordered eating, and depression scores would be higher for the group exposed to the idealized body images, as compared with neutral images. The research hypotheses were tested using ANCOVA analyses. No statistically significant between-group differences were found for any of the dependent variables. Design limitations and suggestions for further research are discussed. This study has social significance as it helps to keep the focus of researchers and mental health providers on media exposure as a risk factor among males for negative body image and related behaviors.

Abstract:
Body dissatisfaction (BD) is a condition derived from negative thoughts and feelings about one's body and is a core symptom of the eating disorder anorexia nervosa (AN). Beingdissatisfied with one’s body is highly present in women and to some extent men. This might be a result of a skewed ideal in combination with social influences. In recent year, research on neurobiological risk factors as well as neuroscientific and cognitive mappings of AN and BD have gained traction, particularly when it comes to studies using neuroimaging- techniques and cognitive tests. Studies have identified brain regions (insular cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, parietal cortex, amygdala, dorsolateral and orbitofrontal areas of the prefrontal cortex) associated with the processing of body shape as well as dysfunctional processing of self-image and body satisfaction. Structural imaging studies of AN patients using CT and MRI have, in many cases, found reduced cerebral volume, increased spinal fluid (CSF) and enlarged ventricles. Usually, food and water restriction has been seen as the cause, and structural deficits in AN patients have shown to improve with weight gain after long-term recovery.

Abstract:
The research problem is to establish the patterns of stress-coping patterns connected with life changes experienced by a person. The aim is to identify whether middle-aged women affected by appearance concerns are coping with the stress of growing older. Hypothesis: Women who are constantly using caring aesthetic manipulations connected with their outlook do rather cope with the stress of aging than addict. To cope with the stress of negative self-perception, women too much concerned about their outlook actively use anti-aging aesthetic procedures. The experimental group (N1 = 54; av. age 48 yrs; SD = 6) included women who actively, persistently and constantly (at least several times a month and for at least a year) use aesthetic manipulations in the medical center; the control group did not resort to manipulations (N2 = 54; av. age 48 yrs; SD = 6). Method of a longitudinal research: interview, consumers` behavior analysis; psycho-diagnostics. Results: stress and discomfort experiencing with attractiveness loss, the continuity and regularity of various manipulations (improving face and body) are confirmed. Half of women use rejuvenation esthetic (non-surgical) services from 4–5 to 11 times a month. The factors of their behavioral activity include: women`s dissatisfaction with the outlook, high level of outlook relevance and value, affiliating themselves to special subculture (women in a control group pay much less attention to their appearance); stress caused by the loss of outlook attractiveness with age, according to their subjective opinion. The analysis of young outlook as a value that influences decision-making during changes showed that in this way women actively cope, reduce stress and fear of the future, improve relationship with the loved ones. At the same time, they risk becoming behavioral addicts, seeking to increase positive emotions, and sense of security.

"Establishment of Korean Nuclear Ombudsman System Importing Compensation and Insurance Concept for Residents." In 14th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering.

Abstract:
In Korea, the nuclear power generation is grown technically well. Already, 20 nuclear reactors are operated, and approximate they supply the 40% of whole the consumption of electric power. This is the driving force of Korean industrial development. Besides, Korean Standard Nuclear Power Plant that was developed by Korean self-technique with nuclear plant technique independence, Ul-Chin 6 has started the commercial operation. Advanced Korean Standard Nuclear Power Plant, new Gori 1, 2 constructions are commenced. But, past days Korean situation is that intention of residents is neglected in the decision making process of nuclear power plant construction and operation. In existing decision making process, it is regarded as the role of public opinion is secondary, and the problem of decision making process is that public is persuaded and believed. So, in decision making process, the public opinion is considered restrictively, there is not the actual public participation. Therefore the dissatisfaction of public is increased continuously, and in Korea, bad recognition about nuclear power is getting full. The method of public participation for complement of this problem is public hearing or ombudsman system. The public hearing is ensuring public participation before decision of a case, and ombudsman is the system that elevates the public satisfaction through continuous feedback of public requirement to occur in deciding and performing the matters. In Korean situation, that present 20 nuclear reactors are operated and also the place of radioactive waste repository has been decided, not only the introduction of public hearing to decide the coming matter but also the operation of ombudsman system to continuously correct and collect the public requirements about the matter to already decided and operated is necessary. In Korea, administration type ombudsman is operated now. But, it has operated without basic element at the aspect of organization, function and phase. So it is not established a firm phase as right relief body to be believed by public with lack of independence, authority and specialty. Therefore the establishment of organization that can be the role as special ombudsman organization about sensitive and special matter like nuclear matter is necessary. Definite establishment element of ombudsman system is to introduce of congress type ombudsman element, to be permanent standing system ombudsman, to limit jurisdiction extent and have strong authority, to be able to access easily, to be composed of legal and nuclear specialist. One of important requirements of resident is compensation. So, based on the resident compensation theory about aversion equipment, ombudsman system should be established introducing the insurance theory through risk management as functional background for appropriate compensation.
