Abstract

Previous cross-sectional studies have reported associations between self-compassion, self-criticism, and positive body image, yet prospective studies establishing the temporal order of these relationships are missing. The present study sought to clarify the nature of these associations by investigating possible longitudinal bi-directional links between self-compassion, self-criticism, and three components of positive body image (body appreciation, functionality appreciation, and body image flexibility). Data were analyzed from 2982 adult women who completed survey instruments at baseline (T0), four-month follow-up (T1), and eight-month follow-up (T2). Attrition rate ranged from 0–56% across time-points. Cross-lagged panel models were computed to test for bidirectional associations. We found evidence of reciprocal, negative associations between self-criticism and the three components of positive body image across the three time-points. We also found evidence that T0 self-compassion predicted increased body image flexibility and functionality appreciation at T1 (paths were non-significant from T1 to T2), whereas T0 body appreciation predicted increased T1 self-compassion (but was non-significant from T1 to T2). Findings suggest that compassionate and uncritical ways of responding to the self may be relevant precursors and outcomes to positive body image, depending on the timing of assessment, highlighting viable targets for intervention.

测试自我同情、自我批评和积极身体形象成分之间的纵向双向联系
以往的横断面研究已经报道了自我同情、自我批判和积极身体形象之间的联系,但是还缺少确定这些关系的时间顺序的前瞻性研究。本研究试图通过调查自我同情、自我批评和积极身体形象的三个组成部分(身体欣赏、功能欣赏和身体形象灵活性)之间可能存在的纵向双向联系,来澄清这些联系的性质。我们对 2982 名成年女性的数据进行了分析,这些女性分别在基线(T0)、四个月随访(T1)和八个月随访(T2)时填写了调查问卷。各时间点的自然减员率为 0-56%。我们计算了交叉滞后面板模型,以检验双向关联。我们发现有证据表明,在三个时间点上,自我批评与积极身体形象的三个组成部分之间存在互为负相关的关系。我们还发现有证据表明,T0 自我同情可以预测 T1 时身体形象灵活性和功能欣赏的增加(从 T1 到 T2 的路径不显著),而 T0 身体欣赏可以预测 T1 自我同情的增加(但从 T1 到 T2 的路径不显著)。研究结果表明,对自我做出同情和非批判性反应的方式可能是积极身体形象的相关前兆和结果,这取决于评估的时间,突出了可行的干预目标。

期刊介绍: Body Image is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality, scientific articles on body image and human physical appearance. Body Image is a multi-faceted concept that refers to persons perceptions and attitudes about their own body, particularly but not exclusively its appearance. The journal invites contributions from a broad range of disciplines-psychological science, other social and behavioral sciences, and medical and health sciences. The journal publishes original research articles, brief research reports, theoretical and review papers, and science-based practitioner reports of interest. Dissertation abstracts are also published online, and the journal gives an annual award for the best doctoral dissertation in this field.
