Fifty-six adolescents with varying combinations of pubertal delay and growth retardation were given the Offer Self-Image Questionnaire. Delay in sexual maturation by itself had no significant deleterious effect on self-image; however, growth retardation did. These results have important implications in determining indications for the endocrinological treatment of pubertal disorders.
56 名青春期延迟和生长迟缓的青少年接受了《自我形象问卷》的调查。单纯的性成熟延迟本身对自我形象没有显著的不良影响；然而，生长迟缓却有影响。这些结果对确定青春期障碍的内分泌治疗适应症具有重要意义。
