description | This study examined the relationships between body image, personality, sex, body mass index, use of social networks, and income in undergraduate students. An online data collection was carried out with 398 students who answered a data questionnaire, the Situational Body Satisfaction Scale, and the Big Five Inventory-2. Correlational analyses indicated that Neuroticism was the most associated factor with body dissatisfaction. For the other personality factors, there were associations with body image and most of the dimensions of the Situational Scale, except for Agreeableness, which showed no relationship with body image. There were positive relationships between body image and lower body mass index, higher income, and lower use of social networks. In the network model, there were differences in the degree of association between the variables for men and women. The study points out clinically important variables for interventions with young people with body image distortion. |
