The present study examined the longitudinal links between perceptions of family connectedness and body satisfaction in 1,774 (52% female) adolescents. Participants (10-15 years of age at Time 1) completed self-report measures at three measurement occasions separated by 1 year each. Mean group difference results showed that both body satisfaction levels and perceived levels of family connectedness decreased over 2 years for the whole sample. As expected, girls were generally less satisfied with their bodies than boys, particularly in the older cohort. Structural equation modelling was used to assess stability coefficients and cross-lagged effects, and longitudinal bidirectional effects between perceptions of family connectedness and body satisfaction were found for girls, but not for boys. This result suggests that adolescent girls' body satisfaction is both affected by and a predictor of perceived family connectedness.
本研究考察了 1774 名（52%为女性）青少年对家庭联系的认知与身体满意度之间的纵向关系。参与者（在第 1 次测量时年龄为 10-15 岁）在 3 次测量中完成了自我报告的测量，每次测量之间间隔 1 年。平均组间差异结果表明，整个样本的身体满意度水平和感知到的家庭联系水平在 2 年内都有所下降。正如预期的那样，女孩通常比男孩对自己的身体更不满意，尤其是在年龄较大的群体中。结构方程模型用于评估稳定性系数和交叉滞后效应，发现女孩的家庭联系感和身体满意度之间存在纵向双向影响，但男孩没有。这一结果表明，青春期女孩的身体满意度既受到感知到的家庭联系的影响，也是感知到的家庭联系的预测因素。
