A sample of 1583 undergraduates completed a multidimensional measure of body image (Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire, MBSRQ) and a new scale, the Eating and Body Image Disturbances Academic Interference Scale (EBIDAIS). All five subscales of the MBSRQ were related to higher levels of self-reported interference with academic functioning in correlational analyses. For the entire sample, a regression revealed that only the appearance orientation subscale of the MBSRQ did not explain unique variance associated with EBIDAIS scores. A few gender differences emerged when separate regressions were conducted, however, overweight preoccupation was the variable that predicted the largest unique variance for both genders. The results suggest that academic interference should be considered as a possible variable when evaluating the social and occupational problems associated with body image disturbance.
1583名本科生参与了一项研究,他们完成了一项身体意象的多维测量(多维身体-自我关系问卷,MBSRQ)以及一个新的量表——饮食与身体意象障碍学业干扰量表(EBIDAIS)。在相关性分析中,MBSRQ的所有五个子量表都与自我报告的对学业功能的较高干扰水平相关。对于整个样本,回归分析表明,只有MBSRQ的外表取向子量表无法解释与EBIDAIS分数相关的独特方差。然而,在进行单独回归时出现了一些性别差异,超重困扰是预测两性最大独特方差的变量。结果表明,在评估与身体意象障碍相关的社会和职业问题时,学业干扰应被视为一个可能的变量。
