Abstract:
In this paper the literature on body image disturbance in anorexic patients is reviewed. After a decade of experimental investigation of body image in anorexia nervosa, where old and new techniques have been used and where a large number of correlations have been identified, what do we really know? The findings have been conflicting but some regularities exist. It is hypothesized that the conflicting results may be related to the presence of different subgroups among anorexics and different types of body image disturbance. Body size estimation is only one dimension of body image perception. likewise, body size overestimation is only one aspect of body image perception. Likewise, body size over-estimation is only one aspect of body image disturbance. Some, but not all anorexics, overestimate their body size, and those who do, seem to have poor prognosis. Body size overestimation is not confined to anorexics. It is not known whether it is a function of a general perceptual/cognitive disorder, but it does seem to be stable over time. The implications of the presence of other psychiatric conditions in anorexic patients are discussed and suggestions for future research and for practice are made.

Abstract:
Body image relates to how individuals perceive and feel about their bodies. Research on body image in men, women, and adolescents has increased substantially in the past two decades. Body image, determined by various instruments, is classified as either negative or positive. A positive body image implies that the body is seen accurately and that the individual is delighted with their physical appearance. Negative body images are characterized by inaccurate perceptions of all or a part of the body and uncomfortable feelings associated with them. Negative body image has been linked to eating disorders and mental disorders. The media, social pressures, cultural norms, age, gender, level of education, and an individual’s opinion of beauty all influence his or her body image perception. Studies in this area have been predominantly conducted with a focus on the association between eating disorders and dissatisfaction with body image in adolescents and young women. However, there is a growing interest in studying how body image functions and how it corresponds with psychological well-being across a lifetime in various demographic groups, especially among older adults. In this review, the life-altering body image satisfaction of men and women, as well as associated problems, were examined. The relationship between body dissatisfaction across ages, confounded by obesity, eating disorders, low physical activity, age-related reduction in sexual activity, and unhealthy lifestyle behaviors has been investigated.

Abstract:
In aesthetics, as a philosophy of art, the body of the viewer is juxtaposed with the image of the painting, before which it stands still; both body and image are considered to be independent, which is a condition of a full aesthetic experience. In the present article I demonstrate how, through phenomenology, pragmatism and the idea of incarnation, post‐Kantian aesthetic is broadened. I limit myself to three theoretical perspectives; in each of them the duality of body and image is neutralised according to different rules. Phenomenology develops the relations between consciousness and body, while in pragmatism the encounter of body and image takes place in the process of the performative creation of image. The idea of incarnation, on the other hand, develops both of these currents in two divergent approaches: a theological and an anthropological one. Bringing together perspectives, which are so different methodologically reveals the existence of a profound tie between body and image.

Abstract:
The method for the measurement of a body image by a video processing system was developed. Body images were compared between 10 normal university female students (aged 19-24) and 11 female anorexia nervosa patients (aged 20-30). The patient group was more interested in their body images, and the distortion of body images for the patient group was very large. A strong desire to adjust her body to the ideal image was found in the patient group. These results suggest that the recognition for visual information may be modified by psychological factors.

Abstract. Social standards of beauty profitness model is leading some young women to worry, especially those that are more susceptible to these models. The thin ideal internalization is a risk factor in development of body image concern. Therefore it was important to conduct a study that contemplate thoughts through body image and psychophysiological reaction to images of thin women. Psychophysiological assessment was conducted with 40 women between 19 and 25 age college students. The sample was divided in two groups: the group with negative thoughts toward body image and group with positive thoughts. We used a exploratory design. The statistical analysis found non statistically significant differences in the psychophysiological reaction to images of thin women in the group with positive and negative thoughts toward body image. These results indicate that exposure to these images does not cause variations in the psychophysiological reaction of women, because they have no significant body dissatisfaction, indicating the need to employ better methods to assess body image. Key Words. Body Image, Thoughts, Thinness, Psychophysiological Assessment, Resumen. Los estándares sociales del modelo de belleza prodelgadez, está llevando a que algunas mujeres jóvenes se preocupen, especialmente aquellas más susceptibles a estos modelos. A partir de esto la internalización del ideal de delgadez representa un factor de riesgo en el desarrollo de la preocupación por la imagen corporal. Por ello, fue importante realizar un estudio que contemplara el tipo de pensamientos hacia la imagen corporal y la reacción psicofisiológica ante imágenes de mujeres delgadas. Para tal efecto se realizó una evaluación psicofisiológica a 40 mujeres de 19 a 25 años estudiantes de Licenciatura. La muestra se dividió en dos grupos: el grupo con pensamientos negativos hacia la imagen corporal y el grupo con pensamientos positivos. Se utilizó un diseño exploratorio. Los resultados del estudio indican que no hay diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la reacción psicofisiológica ante imágenes de mujeres delgadas en el grupo con pensamientos positivos y negativos hacia la imagen corporal. Dichos resultados señalan que la exposición a estas imágenes no provoca variaciones en la reacción psicofisiológica de las mujeres, probablemente debido a que ellas no tienen insatisfacción corporal significativa, lo que muestra que es necesario emplear mejores métodos para evaluar la imagen corporal.

Abstract:
How do individuals rank body shapes? Does this relate to the body part one is most dissatisfied with? Our study investigates whether one can generalize regarding how women represent the body. Three BMI-calibrated images from the Photographic Figure Rating Scale, representative of thin (BMI = 14.72), medium (BMI = 20.33), and large (BMI = 29.26) shapes, were divided into torso, legs and arms, and saved as individual images on a black background. Of 27 possible composite images, 8 were chosen based on a Torso (thin vs. large) × Leg (thin/large vs. medium) × Arm (thin vs. large) design. Our 44 female participants ordered these from thinnest to largest. This was first according to torso, then leg, and finally arm: 41 individuals agreed on the thinnest image (thin torso, thin legs, thin arms), followed by a second image (thin torso, thin legs, large arms, n = 26; or thin torso, medium legs, thin arms, n = 10). One participant differed markedly in her choice of the first image (large torso, medium legs, thin arms). Interestingly, she scored 10 on the EDI-2 scale of Bulimic Tendencies, revealing high risk for bulimia, suggesting that our task might be useful for studying eating disorders. Our juxtaposition of two analytic procedures—partial order scalogram analysis (POSAC) and cluster analysis—enables one to uncover such outliers in a data set. Importantly, the 2D POSAC space clearly reveals the hierarchical structure of the body image.

Abstract:
Background: The mounting trends of beauty perceptions have contributed to distorted body image among adolescents. This demands understanding about current pointers of body image satisfaction to prevent eating disorders associated with mismanagement of weight in adolescents. Aim & Objective: The objectives of this cross-sectional study were to apprehend body image perception and dissatisfaction among adolescents (12-14years) across the genders and associate it with their actual BMI along with identifying the factors influencing body image perception. Settings and Design: A structured questionnaire was developed and administered on randomly selected 112 adolescents (68% boys & 34% girls, 12-14 years), mean age=12.8 ±0.45 from urban coeducational school of western India. Anthropometric measurements were taken with standardized tools and BMI z-scores were calculated. The actual and perceived weight was compared using paired t-test and descriptive statistics. Association between body image indicators, gender, and BMI were assessed using Chi-square test and One-way ANOVA. Factor analysis was done by Principal component analysis. Results: There was a significant difference in the perceived (M=2.31, SD=0.93) and actual BMI (M=1.96, SD=0.69), p=0.002. A significant association between gender and the influence of media idols, discrimination due to physical appearance and BMI was observed (p≤.0.005). Self-perception and judgements of others, behaviors related with self-fixation, social influence and inappropriate dietary practices and comparison with models and actors were the emerging factors identified. Conclusion: The body image perception was distorted among adolescents of both sexes, with higher body image discontent shown by girls. The perceived body image, when compared with their BMI was found to be incongruent across sexes.

Abstract:
This study investigated the psychometric properties of the Body Image Questionnaire (QÜIC) in Spanish adolescents. The sample comprised 254 girls and 189 boys, aged 12–15. Principal component analyses showed that the 18 satisfaction items could be summarized using two moderately interrelated dimensions, torso and head/limbs, with satisfaction with chest/breast and genitals loading on a different factor for boys (torso) and girls (head/limbs). The QÜIC measures of body satisfaction, body problems, general physical appearance and conformity with weight and height presented satisfactory test-retest reliability, internal consistency and convergent validity. Our findings support the use of the QÜIC when assessing body image.

Abstract:
Este estudio examinó a las mujeres universitarias en busca de asociaciones entre el perfil somatotipo, la percepción corporal de su propio cuerpo y la percepción del cuerpo de otras mujeres, evaluadas a través de tareas dinámicas y estáticas. Participaron 142 estudiantes universitarios (21.81 ± 3.014 años), evaluados para el índice de masa corporal y el somatotipo por los protocolos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud y Heath-Carter, respectivamente. La percepción de la imagen estática se evaluó mediante la Escala Brasileña de Clasificación de Figuras Fotográficas (BPFRS) y la percepción dinámica de la imagen, mediante la tarea psicofísica Estimación de categoría. Este último se llevó a cabo en dos contextos: percepción del cuerpo mismo y percepción de los cuerpos de cuatro modelos desconocidos. La prueba no paramétrica de Kruskal-Wallis se realizó para el análisis de varianza. Los valores de percepción de imagen dinámica y estática se emparejaron a cero (precisión perceptiva total) y se analizaron mediante la prueba de Mann-Whitney para determinar la tendencia perceptiva. La correlación de Spearman se realizó para detectar asociaciones entre variables. La asociación entre variables categóricas (tareas estáticas y dinámicas) se realizó mediante la prueba de Chi-cuadrado. Se encontró que el perfil del somatotipo no está asociado con la autopercepción estática y dinámica de la imagen corporal o con la percepción de imágenes corporales desconocidas. Aún así, mirar la imagen estática en sí no está asociado con la observación en movimiento, lo que indica que estos procesos de percepción son diferentes e independientes. This study examined university women for associations between somatotype profile and body self-perception, and perception of other women’s bodies, in dynamic and static tasks. The sample comprised 142 female undergraduate students (21.81 ± 3.014 years) assessed for body mass index and somatotype by World Health Organization and Heath-Carter protocols, respectively. Perception of static image was evaluated using the Brazilian Photographic Figure Rating Scale (BPFRS), and dynamic image perception, by the Category Estimation psychophysical task. The latter was performed in two regards: body self-image and images of four unknown models’ bodies. We performed the Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test for analysis of variance. Dynamic and static image perception values were paired to zero (total accuracy) and analyzed by Mann-Whitney test for perceptual tendency. Spearman correlation was performed to detect associations between variables. Association between categorical variables (static and dynamic tasks) was by Chi-Square test. Somatotypical profile was found not to be associated with static and dynamic body image self-perception or with perception of unknown body images. Furthermore, looking at one’s static image is not associated with watching oneself in movement, indicating that these perceptual processes are different and independent of body shape.

A percepção da imagem estática foi avaliada por meio da Escala Brasileira de Classificação de Figuras Fotográficas (BPFRS) e percepção dinâmica da imagem, pela tarefa psicofísica Estimação de Categoria. Este último foi realizado em dois contextos: percepção do próprio corpo e percepção dos corpos de quatro modelos desconhecidas. Foi realizado o teste não paramétrico de Kruskal-Wallis para análise de variância. Os valores de percepção de imagem dinâmica e estática foram pareados a zero (acurácia percetiva total) e analisados pelo teste de Mann-Whitney quanto à tendência perceptiva. A correlação de Spearman foi realizada para detectar associações entre variáveis. A associação entre variáveis categóricas (tarefas estáticas e dinâmicas) foi realizada pelo teste do Qui-quadrado. Verificou-se que o perfil somatotípico não está associado à autopercepção estática e dinâmica da imagem corporal ou à percepção de imagens corporais desconhecidas. Ainda, olhar a própria imagem estática não está associado a se observar em movimento, indicando que esses processos perceptivos são diferentes e independentes.

Abstract:
Emerging in the UK in the 1980s, Scratch Video established a paradoxical union of mass-media critique, Left-wing politics, and music-video and advertising aesthetics with its use of moving-image appropriation in the medium of videotape. Enabled by innovative professional and consumer video technologies, artists like George Barber, The Gorilla Tapes, and Sandra Goldbacher and Kim Flitcroft deployed a style characterized by the rapid sampling and manipulation of dissociated images drawn from broadcast television. Inspired by the cut-up methods of William Burroughs and the audio sampling practiced by contemporary black American musicians, these artists developed strategies for intervening in the audiovisual archive of television and disseminating its images in new contexts: in galleries and nightclubs, and on home video. Reconceptualizing video's “body,” Scratch's appropriation of televisual images of the human form imagined a new hybrid image of the post-industrial body, a “third body” representing a new convergence of human and machine.

Abstract:
Students in health professions seeking to establish professional credibility through their appearance could be at greater risk of body dissatisfaction. Instagram posts featuring #rd2be (n = 865) or #nursingstudent (n=1610) were reviewed for body type and body image messages. A greater proportion of #rd2be posts contained images of thin or muscular bodies and text with body image–related messages than #nursingstudent posts. Posts with #nursingstudent had a higher prevalence of text expressing dissatisfaction with weight, fat, or muscle than posts with #rd2be. Results suggest that nursing and dietetics students may grapple with body image while establishing their professional identity.

Abstract:
Very little is known about body satisfaction among minority children. This study examined the relationship between perceived and actual body size and Body Mass Index among 43 low-socioeconomic Hispanic 3rd-graders. Researchers measured participants’ Body Mass Index; students self-reported Perceived Ideal Self Image and Perceived Actual Self Image using Collins’ (1991) pictorial instrument scale of seven child body images that illustrate body weight from very thin to obese. The majority of students chose body images from the scale that depicted a healthy weight for both their Perceived Ideal Self Image and Perceived Actual Self Image. More boys than girls chose underweight as their Perceived Ideal Self Image. Thirty percent of the students were found to be overweight and 30 percent were at risk for being overweight. A small positive correlation between Perceived Actual Self Image and Body Mass Index was found.

Abstract:
There is a substantial body of research that uses figure rating scales for personal body image assessment and satisfaction. The aim of this research was to determine the difference in attractiveness of physical body image by age of men and women. 460 participants who were representative of the population of a major Australian regional city were sampled using face-to-face interviews and a computer-based figure rating scales survey tool. Women were found likely to identify thin images of women as more attractive to men; and men were found likely to identify more muscular images of men as more attractive to women. These findings replicate similar studies and have implications for clinical treatments related to body image, eating disorders, and compulsive exercise.
