The goal of this investigation was to develop and validate a revision of a widely used measure of societal influences on body image and eating disturbances-the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire (SATAQ).
Two independent samples of college females completed a revision and extension of the SATAQ and factor analyses were conducted to determine the underlying structure of the revised scale.
Factor analyses indicated two distinct internalization factors: one appeared to reflect a generic media influence related to TV, magazines, and movies. A second factor clearly reflected internalization of athletic and sports figures. Two other factors, reflecting media pressures and media as an informational source, also emerged. Another widely used measure of thin-ideal internalization, the Ideal Body Internalization Scale-Revised (IBIS-R), was included in factor analyses to determine its empirical relationship with the revised SATAQ. None of the IBIS-R items loaded with any of the internalization items or items reflective of media pressures or information. Instead, the IBIS-R appeared to tap into an awareness of appearance norms dimension. The SATAQ-3 subscales had excellent convergent validity with measures of body image and eating disturbance. Eating-disturbed and eating-disordered samples had higher scores on SATAQ-3 subscales than a control sample.
The SATAQ-3 measures multiple aspects of a societal influence and should prove useful for basic risk factor work as well as for gauging the efficacy of prevention and treatment programs.
本研究的目的是开发并验证对一种广泛使用的衡量社会对身体意象及饮食失调影响的量表——《外表的社会文化态度问卷》（SATAQ）的修订版。
两组独立的大学女生样本完成了SATAQ的修订与扩展，并进行了因子分析以确定修订后量表的潜在结构。
因子分析表明存在两个不同的内化因子：一个似乎反映了与电视、杂志和电影相关的一般媒体影响。第二个因子则明确反映了运动员和体育人物的内化。另外两个反映媒体压力和媒体作为信息来源的因子也出现了。另一种广泛使用的瘦理想内化量表，即修订后的《理想身体内化量表》（IBIS-R），被纳入因子分析以确定其与修订后的SATAQ的实证关系。IBIS-R的项目与任何内化项目或反映媒体压力或信息的项目均无载荷。相反，IBIS-R似乎涉及对外表规范维度的认知。SATAQ-3分量表与身体意象和饮食失调的测量具有良好的聚合效度。饮食失调和饮食紊乱样本在SATAQ-3分量表上的得分高于对照组样本。
SATAQ-3测量了社会影响的多个方面，应证明对基础风险因素研究以及评估预防和治疗项目的效果有用。
