Factors that contribute to body dissatisfaction among adolescents from ethnically diverse California were examined to determine if the factors vary with gender and race.
Data from the 2005 California Health Interview Survey were used; 1807 White, Latino, and Asian American adolescents from 12 to 17 years old were included.
Ordinal multiple logistic regression with gender and ethnicity controlled for revealed two major factors (high body mass index and poor/fair general health status) contribute to body dissatisfaction across gender and ethnicity in California adolescents. Other factors related to body dissatisfaction varied with ethnicity and gender.
Gender- and ethnicity-specific interventions to improve body image in adolescents must be developed.
研究加利福尼亚州不同种族青少年身体不满的影响因素，以确定这些因素是否因性别和种族而异。
使用了2005年加利福尼亚健康访谈调查的数据；纳入了1807名12至17岁的白人、拉丁裔和亚裔美国青少年。
在控制了性别和种族的有序多因素逻辑回归分析中发现，两个主要因素（高体重指数和较差/一般的总体健康状况）导致加利福尼亚州青少年普遍存在身体不满，且不受性别和种族影响。其他与身体不满相关的因素则因种族和性别而异。
必须制定针对特定性别和种族的干预措施，以改善青少年的身体形象。
