Development of the Body Image Concern Inventory (BICI), a measure designed to assess dysmorphic concern, is described. A panel of expert raters supported the construct validity of the measure, and four college student samples (Ns=184, 200, 56, 40) supported the internal consistency of the BICI. In addition, in studies 1 and 3, concurrent validity was established through comparison of the BICI to extant self-report and interview measures of dysmorphic symptomatology. Convergent validity patterns were assessed through comparison with measures of obsessive-compulsive and eating disorder symptomatology in studies 2 and 4. Finally, the results of study 4 supported that the BICI discriminated individuals with a diagnosis of Body Dysmorphic Disorder or bulimia (disorders that frequently involve high levels of dysmorphic concern) from those with subclinical symptoms. Results suggest that the BICI is a reliable, valid, and user-friendly tool for assessing dysmorphic concern, with utility in both research and clinical settings.
本文介绍了旨在评估畸形关注的身体意象关注量表（BICI）的编制情况。一组专家评分者支持该量表的结构效度，四个大学生样本（N分别为184、200、56、40）支持BICI的内部一致性。此外，在研究1和3中，通过将BICI与现有的畸形症状自评报告和访谈量表进行比较，确立了同时效度。在研究2和4中，通过与强迫症和饮食障碍症状量表进行比较，评估了聚合效度模式。最后，研究4的结果支持BICI能够区分诊断为身体畸形障碍或神经性贪食症（这些疾病经常涉及高度的畸形关注）的个体与具有亚临床症状的个体。结果表明，BICI是一种可靠、有效且用户友好的评估畸形关注的工具，在研究和临床环境中均有用处。
