Perceived acceptance of one’s body by important others is a key factor in cultivating positive body image. The present study aims to examine the psychometric properties of a Mandarin Chinese Body Acceptance by Others Scale-2 (BAOS-2) among Chinese adolescents. A sample of 1,122 Chinese adolescents (546 girls, 576 boys), with a mean age = 13.47 years (SD =1.81 years; range = 11–17 years), completed the Mandarin Chinese BAOS-2. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis supported its unidimensionality among Chinese adolescents. Measurement invariance across gender was also upheld. Internal consistency was supported via McDonald’s omega. A total of 45 girls and 52 boys completed the Mandarin Chinese BAOS-2 twice at a 15-day interval, and test-retest reliability was supported via intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs). Convergent validity was supported by its strong relationship with body appreciation and small-to-moderate relationship with functionality satisfaction. Criterion-related validity was upheld via its small-to-moderate relationship with pressure to conform to appearance ideals, and moderate-to-strong relationship with self-esteem. Additionally, it explained unique variance in self-esteem, body appreciation, and functionality satisfaction beyond age and pressure to conform to appearance ideals, providing incremental validity evidence. Taken together, the Mandarin Chinese BAOS-2 is reliable and valid in assessing body acceptance by others among Chinese adolescents.

重要他人对自己身体的认可是培养积极身体形象的关键因素。本研究旨在探讨中国青少年普通话他人身体接受量表-2 （BAOS-2）的心理测量特征。样本为1122名中国青少年（546名女孩，576名男孩），平均年龄= 13.47岁（SD =1.81岁，范围= 11-17岁），完成了普通话BAOS-2。探索性和验证性因素分析支持其在中国青少年中的单一性。性别间的测量不变性也得到了支持。内部一致性是通过麦当劳的欧米茄来支持的。共有45名女生和52名男生以15 d为间隔完成了2次普通话BAOS-2测试，并通过班级内相关系数（ICCs）支持重测信度。趋同效度与身体欣赏有较强的关系，与功能满意有小到中等的关系。标准相关效度通过其与符合外表理想压力的小到中等关系和与自尊的中到强关系得到维持。此外，它解释了自尊、身体欣赏和功能满意度的独特差异，超越了年龄和符合外表理想的压力，提供了增量效度证据。综上所述，普通话BAOS-2在评估中国青少年他人身体接受度方面是可靠和有效的。

As people from island nations, US-based Caribbean Island Hispanas are inundated with tropicalizing messaging that creates expectations around ideal body size and shape, skin color, hair texture, and other features. Prior studies have demonstrated that messages about one’s body can impact body image, body satisfaction, self-esteem, behavior, and sense of self. Much of the existing research on body messages focuses on weight, body size, and exercise/diet habits and neglects to consider messages related to features that are salient for Caribbean Island Hispanas. Through a reflexive thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews, the authors of this study identified various kinds of memorable messages that a racially diverse sample of twenty-three Cuban, Dominican, and Puerto Rican women living in the United States have received from their families. Four themes were generated related to body size, texturism, colorism and featurism, and body-related neutral/positive messaging. We found that most of our participants have experienced familial messaging promoting specific beauty ideals, many of which are anti-Black, and that these messages are perceived as harmful. This finding supports the Theory of Memorable Messages’ argument for the disruption, and replacement of negative messaging to reduce Caribbean Hispanic families’ use of shaming body talk. Providers who seek to support Latines in healing must prepare to have difficult conversations about structural racism, recognizing bias, internalized bias, and one’s own oppressive actions at the individual level that mimic and uphold systemic oppression while considering the connection to community as both a source of harm and as a source of healing.

作为来自岛屿国家的人，美国加勒比海岛屿的西班牙人被淹没在热带化的信息中，这些信息使人们对理想的体型、肤色、头发质地和其他特征产生了期望。先前的研究表明，关于一个人身体的信息会影响身体形象、身体满意度、自尊、行为和自我意识。现有的许多关于身体信息的研究都集中在体重、体型和运动/饮食习惯上，而忽视了与加勒比岛西班牙人显著特征相关的信息。通过对半结构化访谈的反身性主题分析，本研究的作者确定了生活在美国的23名种族多样化的古巴、多米尼加和波多黎各妇女从她们的家庭收到的各种难忘的信息。产生了与身体大小、纹理主义、色彩主义和特征主义以及与身体相关的中性/积极信息有关的四个主题。我们发现，大多数参与者都经历过宣扬特定美丽理想的家庭信息，其中许多是反黑人的，这些信息被认为是有害的。这一发现支持了“记忆信息理论”的观点，即负面信息的破坏和替代可以减少加勒比西班牙裔家庭使用羞辱性肢体语言。寻求支持拉丁裔治疗的提供者必须准备好进行艰难的对话，讨论结构性种族主义、认识偏见、内化偏见，以及个人层面上模仿和维护系统性压迫的压迫行为，同时考虑到与社区的联系既是伤害的来源，也是治愈的来源。

In a society where sexual objectification is pervasive, women may experience self-objectification as an external motivator for their appearance management, thus experiencing reduced bodily self-determination. We here tackle two specific strategies of appearance management in response to low self-determination, namely body concealment and exposure. In two studies, we investigate the association between bodily self-determination, body concealment, and body exposure. In Study 1 (N = 200), self-determination (assessed as motivation driving self-presentation) was negatively linked to body concealment and positively to body exposure. In particular, extrinsic motivation mediated the link between self-objectification and body concealment/exposure. In Study 2 (N = 173), participants recalled experiencing either intrinsic or extrinsic motivation for self-presentation: when extrinsic motivation was elicited, participants reported greater body concealment and reduced body exposure, a process mediated by negative and positive emotions, respectively. This work highlights the relevance of self-determination in self-objectification processes, and expands the investigation of body concealment and body exposure by identifying a key predictor of these attitudes and behaviors.

在性物化普遍存在的社会中，女性可能会将自我物化作为外表管理的外部动机，从而减少身体的自主权。我们在这里解决两种具体的策略的外观管理，以应对低自决，即身体隐藏和暴露。在两项研究中，我们调查了身体自决、身体隐藏和身体暴露之间的关系。在研究1 （N = 200）中，自我决定（被评估为驱动自我呈现的动机）与身体隐藏呈负相关，与身体暴露呈正相关。特别是外在动机在自我物化和身体隐藏/暴露之间的联系中起中介作用。在研究2 （N = 173）中，参与者回忆了自我表现的内在或外在动机：当外在动机被激发时，参与者报告了更大的身体隐藏和更少的身体暴露，这一过程分别由消极和积极情绪介导。这项工作强调了自我物化过程中自我决定的相关性，并通过确定这些态度和行为的关键预测因子，扩展了对身体隐藏和身体暴露的调查。

During teenage years and early adulthood, many women experience high stress levels regarding their appearance. Especially appearance-related comparisons on social media fuel body dissatisfaction. To remedy this, both social media literacy and self-compassion interventions have each been shown as separately effective but are rarely implemented together. The SoSelf training does so in the context of an ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study. This feasibility study was run with a convenience sample of 26 young women (age range 15–21, M = 19.0, SD = 1.8) throughout 30 days. Feasibility, engagement, acceptability and potential effectiveness of the SoSelf training were assessed using data from pre-, post- and follow-up questionnaires, Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) and a semi-structured feedback interview. In favor of feasibility, we found high engagement (EMA compliance rates: M = 90.7 %, SD = 9.5 %) and acceptability (high satisfaction ratings in semi-structured interviews). As for potential effectiveness, increases in self-compassion and body appreciation, along with decreases in social appearance anxiety were observed post-intervention and maintained at the one-month follow-up. The combination of two fundamentally different training elements was well received and points to the potential of multi-componential interventions. Formal randomized controlled trials are necessary prior to dissemination.

在青少年时期和成年早期，许多女性对自己的外表感到高度压力。尤其是社交媒体上与外表相关的比较加剧了对身材的不满。为了解决这个问题，社交媒体素养和自我同情干预都被证明是单独有效的，但很少被同时实施。SoSelf训练是在生态瞬时评估（EMA）研究的背景下进行的。本可行性研究采用26名年轻女性（年龄15-21岁，M = 19.0, SD = 1.8）作为方便样本，为期30天。采用问卷调查、生态瞬时评估（EMA）和半结构化反馈访谈的数据，对SoSelf培训的可行性、参与度、可接受性和潜在有效性进行评估。支持可行性，我们发现高参与度（EMA遵守率：M = 90.7 %,SD = 9.5 %）和可接受性（半结构化访谈中的高满意度评级）。至于潜在的效果，干预后观察到自我同情和身体欣赏的增加，以及社交外表焦虑的减少，并在一个月的随访中保持不变。两种根本不同的训练内容的结合受到好评，并指出了多成分干预的潜力。在传播之前，有必要进行正式的随机对照试验。

Racial discrimination is associated with adverse health outcomes, including negative body image, but less is known about the extent to which racial discrimination is associated with positive body image. The aim of this preregistered study was to test the association between racial discrimination and body appreciation (i.e., a facet of positive body image) and to explore whether different coping strategies mediated any direct relationship. An online sample of racialised minority adults living in the United Kingdom (N = 576) were asked to complete the Everyday Discrimination Scale, Body Appreciation Scale-2, and the Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced inventory. Preliminary linear modelling showed that seeking emotional social support, positive reinterpretation and growth, turning to religion, and focusing on and venting of emotions were significantly associated with body appreciation. However, findings from subsequent path analysis indicated that racial discrimination was not directly associated with body appreciation. In men only, the direct relationship between racial discrimination and body appreciation was mediated by focus on and venting of emotions. These findings suggest that experiences of racial discrimination may not be associated with positive body image outcomes, at least in racialised minority adults from the United Kingdom. We discuss possible reasons for this, as well as the generally null mediating effects.

种族歧视与不利的健康结果有关，包括消极的身体形象，但对种族歧视与积极的身体形象之间的联系程度知之甚少。本研究旨在检验种族歧视与身体欣赏（即积极身体形象的一个方面）之间的关系，并探讨不同的应对策略是否介导任何直接关系。一个居住在英国的少数族裔成年人的在线样本（N = 576）被要求完成“日常歧视量表”、“身体欣赏量表-2”和“经历过的问题的应对取向”清单。初步的线性模型显示，寻求情感社会支持、积极的重新诠释和成长、转向宗教、关注和发泄情绪与身体欣赏显著相关。然而，随后的通径分析结果表明，种族歧视与身体欣赏没有直接联系。仅在男性中，种族歧视和身体欣赏之间的直接关系是通过对情绪的关注和发泄来调解的。这些发现表明，种族歧视的经历可能与积极的身体形象结果无关，至少对来自英国的种族化的少数民族成年人来说是这样。我们讨论了可能的原因，以及一般无效的中介效应。

Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals are at elevated risk of eating disorders (EDs), disordered eating (DE), and body image concerns (BIC) compared to cisgender people. This study investigated the differences in EDs, DE, and BIC between cisgender and TGD individuals, as well as examine disparities in EDs, DE, and BIC between TGD groups, with the goal of identifying high-risk groups. It was hypothesised that ED and DE pathology, and BIC would be higher in transgender people than cisgender people. Differences between TGD groups were also explored. Sixty studies were examined using meta-analyses, with sixteen random-effects meta-analyses conducted. Results revealed that TGD individuals were more likely to exhibit elevated levels of EDs, DE, and BIC compared to cisgender individuals. Fewer differences in EDs, DE, and BIC between TGD groups emerged, although transgender men/transmasculine people had higher levels of restriction (vs. non-binary and gender diverse people) and compensatory behaviours (vs. transgender women/transfeminine people). Binary transgender people reported higher BIC than non-binary/gender diverse people. Study heterogeneity and prediction intervals limit inferences to the broader population, and few studies were high quality. The emerging evidence suggests that TGD people are at elevated risk of ED pathology, DE, and BIC compared with cisgender people.

与顺性人相比，跨性别和性别多样性（TGD）个体患饮食失调（EDs）、饮食失调（DE）和身体形象担忧（BIC）的风险更高。本研究调查了顺性别和TGD个体之间ed、DE和BIC的差异，并检查TGD组之间ed、DE和BIC的差异，目的是确定高危人群。假设跨性别者的ED和DE病理以及BIC高于顺性人。还探讨了TGD组之间的差异。使用荟萃分析对60项研究进行了检查，其中进行了16项随机效应荟萃分析。结果显示，与顺性别个体相比，TGD个体更有可能表现出ed、DE和BIC水平的升高。尽管跨性别男性/跨性别者有更高水平的限制（与非二元和性别多样化的人相比）和补偿行为（与跨性别女性/跨性别者相比），但TGD组之间的ed、DE和BIC差异较小。二元跨性别者的BIC报告高于非二元/性别多样化者。研究的异质性和预测区间限制了对更广泛人群的推断，而且很少有研究是高质量的。新出现的证据表明，与顺性人群相比，TGD患者ED病理、DE和BIC的风险更高。

Appearance concerns after burns start soon after injury. However, early psychological interventions to support individuals with their changed appearance are absent. This study investigated the acceptability of an early acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention delivered by a psychological therapist either in person or virtually to help individuals adjust to changes to their appearance after burns. As a secondary objective, the potential effectiveness of ProACTive was also investigated. Using mixed-methods, 13 adults (eight women, five men) participated. Acceptability was measured by uptake rates, module completion rates and interview data. Over two-thirds of participants completed all modules. Three main themes were identified from interviews: An acceptable intervention; Valuing the therapeutic relationship; and Early support is key. Data suggested that ProACTive may be acceptable, although some inconsistencies within the data were observed. Ratings of helpfulness were positive and qualitative feedback suggested that ProACTive seemed helpful by providing space to explore and reflect on appearance changes, developing psychological flexibility and self-compassion, and preparing individuals for being around other people. Positive and negative affect significantly decreased (moderate effect sizes) but no significant changes on appearance concerns, psychological flexibility or self-compassion (small effect sizes) were revealed. ProACTive may be an acceptable early psychological intervention to support the adjustment of appearance changes after burns. Acceptability may be higher in individuals with appearance concerns and those admitted to hospital. The intervention holds promise soon after burns but further research on acceptability and effectiveness is needed.

烧伤后的外观问题在受伤后不久就开始了。然而，早期的心理干预，以支持个人与他们的改变外表是缺席的。本研究调查了早期接受和承诺治疗（ACT）干预的可接受性，该干预由心理治疗师亲自或虚拟地提供，以帮助个体适应烧伤后外观的变化。作为次要目标，还研究了ProACTive的潜在有效性。采用混合方法，13名成年人（8名女性，5名男性）参与了研究。可接受性是通过摄取率、模块完成率和访谈数据来衡量的。超过三分之二的参与者完成了所有模块。从访谈中确定了三个主题：可接受的干预；重视治疗关系；早期的支持是关键。数据表明，主动性是可以接受的，尽管在数据中观察到一些不一致。乐于助人的评分是积极的，定性反馈表明，积极主动似乎是有帮助的，因为它提供了探索和反思外表变化的空间，培养了心理灵活性和自我同情，并为个人与他人相处做好了准备。积极和消极情绪显著降低（中等效应量），但对外表关注、心理灵活性和自我同情没有显著变化（小效应量）。积极主动可能是一种可接受的早期心理干预，以支持烧伤后外观变化的调整。对于有外貌问题的个体和住院患者，接受度可能更高。这种干预措施在烧伤后不久就有希望，但需要进一步研究其可接受性和有效性。

In an era when social media presents unprecedented opportunities for self-objectification, research is needed to understand how online and offline self-objectification processes are related to emerging adults’ sexual well-being. In this brief report, we report results from a cross-sectional study examining associations among appearance-related social media consciousness (ASMC), body consciousness during sexual activity, and sexual assertiveness among a mixed-gender sample of emerging adults (n = 249, M_age = 22.30, 54.6% women, 60.6% straight/heterosexual) from four Anglophone countries (United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia). Using self-report measures and controlling for theoretically relevant variables (i.e., general self-objectification, time spent on social media, gender identity, sexual orientation), multiple regression analyses found that higher ASMC was associated with higher body consciousness during sexual activity, with no significant moderation by gender identity or sexual orientation. ASMC was not directly associated with sexual assertiveness, but results indicated a significant indirect effect, such that higher ASMC was associated with lower sexual assertiveness via higher body consciousness during sexual activity. These findings suggest that social media-specific self-objectification may be associated with lower sexual well-being, even when controlling for general self-objectification. Furthermore, body consciousness during sexual activity may be a mechanism through which ASMC relates to lower sexual assertiveness. We discuss these findings through the lens of objectification theory and self-effects theory, highlighting the importance of future research examining associations among self-objectification processes and sexual well-being longitudinally, to better understand how these processes unfold among diverse emerging adults around the world.

在社交媒体为自我物化提供了前所未有的机会的时代，需要研究了解在线和离线自我物化过程与新兴成年人的性健康之间的关系。在这篇简短的报告中，我们报告了一项横断面研究的结果，该研究调查了来自四个英语国家（美国、英国、加拿大、澳大利亚）的混合性别新成年样本（n = 249,Mage = 22.30,54.6%的女性，60.6%的异性恋/异性恋）中与外表相关的社交媒体意识（ASMC）、性活动中的身体意识和性自信之间的关系。通过自我报告测量和控制理论相关变量（即一般自我物化、在社交媒体上花费的时间、性别认同、性取向），多元回归分析发现，更高的ASMC与性活动中更高的身体意识相关，性别认同或性取向没有显著的调节作用。ASMC与性自信没有直接关系，但结果显示了显著的间接影响，例如，较高的ASMC与较低的性自信相关，这是通过性活动中较高的身体意识来实现的。这些发现表明，社交媒体特定的自我物化可能与较低的性幸福感有关，即使在控制一般自我物化的情况下也是如此。此外，性活动中的身体意识可能是ASMC与较低的性自信相关的一种机制。我们通过客观化理论和自我效应理论的视角讨论了这些发现，强调了未来研究自我客观化过程和性幸福之间纵向关系的重要性，以更好地理解这些过程如何在世界各地不同的新兴成年人中展开。

The 9-item Breast Appreciation Scale (BrAS) measures the construct of breast appreciation, posited as a facet of the broader positive body image construct. To date, there has been limited assessment of the psychometric properties of the BrAS across national and linguistic groups. To add to the literature on breast appreciation, we assessed the psychometric properties of an Arabic translation of the BrAS. An online convenience sample of 626 cisgender women (age range = 18–50 years) from Lebanon completed the Arabic BrAS along with additional measures of body image, disordered eating, and psychological well-being. Across two split-half subsamples (n = 312 and n = 314, respectively), exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis showed that it was possible to extract a unidimensional model of the BrAS with all nine items. This model of the BrAS had adequate composite reliability in both split-half subsamples. Additionally, the BrAS evidenced good patterns of convergent (positive associations with other indices of positive body image and breast awareness, and negative associations with body dissatisfaction and symptoms of disordered eating) and concurrent validity (positive relationships with gratitude and compassionate self-responding). These results suggest that the Arabic translation of the BrAS retains its robust psychometric properties in Lebanese women.

9项乳房欣赏量表（胸罩）测量乳房欣赏的结构，假设为更广泛的积极的身体形象结构的一个方面。迄今为止，对不同国家和语言群体的胸罩心理测量特性的评估有限。为了增加对乳房欣赏的文献，我们评估了胸罩的阿拉伯语翻译的心理测量特性。来自黎巴嫩的626名顺性别女性（年龄范围为18-50岁）在网上方便地完成了阿拉伯胸罩的测试，同时还对身体形象、饮食失调和心理健康状况进行了额外的测量。在两个分半子样本（n = 312和n = 314分别）中，探索性和验证性因子分析表明，可以提取包含所有9个项目的bra的一维模型。该模型在两种半裂子样品中具有足够的复合可靠性。此外，胸罩显示出良好的收敛模式（与其他积极的身体形象和乳房意识指数呈正相关，与身体不满和饮食失调症状负相关）和并发效度（与感恩和富有同情心的自我反应呈正相关）。这些结果表明，bra的阿拉伯语翻译在黎巴嫩妇女中保留了其强大的心理测量特性。
