To systematically summarize the literature examining ethnic minority status and body image dissatisfaction (BID) among children and adolescents living in Canada and the United States. Literature was identified by entering search terms into six electronic databases and through an electronic hand search of key research journals. Eligible sources were those published between 1946 and November 2012, conducted within Canada or the United States, included ethnic minority children or adolescents (<19 years), and measured BID through self-report. Synthesis of the sources followed the principles of thematic and content analysis (Vaismoradi et al. in Nurs Health Sci 15:398-405, 2013). A total of 33 sources were included in our scoping synthesis; spanning from 1991 to 2011. No results emerged from Canada. Evidence from the United States is equivocal. The literature is plagued by inconsistent nomenclature and inadequate attention to issues of measurement, sex and gender. A more robust evidence-base requires advanced methods to examine the intersection of ethnicity, sex and gender on BID among children and adolescents.
系统总结关于加拿大和美国儿童及青少年中少数族裔身份与身体意象不满(BID)的相关文献。通过在六个电子数据库中输入检索词以及对主要研究期刊进行电子手工检索来确定文献。符合条件的文献是1946年至2012年11月期间在加拿大或美国开展的研究,研究对象包括少数族裔儿童或青少年(<19岁),并通过自我报告来衡量身体意象不满。文献综合遵循主题和内容分析原则(Vaismoradi等人,《护理与健康科学》15:398 - 405,2013年)。我们的范围综述共纳入33篇文献;时间跨度从1991年至2011年。加拿大未得出相关结果。美国的证据并不明确。该文献存在命名不一致以及对测量、性别和性别的问题关注不足的问题。更有力的证据基础需要先进的方法来研究种族、性别和性别的交叉对儿童及青少年身体意象不满的影响。
