This study examined the associations among weight status, body dissatisfaction, and negative body talk with a sample of young adult male friends (N = 55 pairs). Actor-Partner Interdependence Model revealed that individuals' body dissatisfaction was positively associated with their own body mass index, but was negatively associated with their friend's body mass index. In addition, having a friend with low body mass index escalated the association between individuals' own body mass index and body dissatisfaction. Further, when individuals with higher body mass index engaged in higher negative body talk, they had lower body dissatisfaction compared to those who engaged in lower negative body talk.
本研究以年轻成年男性朋友样本（N = 55对）为对象，考察了体重状况、身体不满与负面身体谈论之间的关联。行为者-伙伴相互依赖模型显示，个体的身体不满与自身身体质量指数呈正相关，但与朋友的身体质量指数呈负相关。此外，有一个身体质量指数低的朋友会加剧个体自身身体质量指数与身体不满之间的关联。此外，当身体质量指数较高的个体进行较多的负面身体谈论时，与进行较少负面身体谈论的个体相比，他们的身体不满程度较低。
