Adolescents were asked to nominate peers who experience appearance-related victimization or engage in appearance-related aggression, in order to examine the peer social status and competency correlates of receiving more nominations. Moreover, the correlates of peer-report vs. self-report appearance-related victimization were considered. Participants were 371 young Australian adolescents (55% girls, M = 12.0 years) who completed surveys. Results showed that victimized adolescents were rated as less liked, prosocial, popular and good-looking, and perceived themselves to be less attractive, less competent at sport and more teased by peers about appearance. Aggressive adolescents were rated as more popular and better looking, but also less prosocial. Aggressive adolescents also perceived themselves to be less academically but more romantically competent, and reported more appearance anxiety symptoms. Findings from peer-report measures generally support previous research findings using self-report measures, but the significant correlates did appear to differ between peer- and self-report of appearance victimization.
研究要求青少年提名那些遭受外表相关欺凌或实施外表相关攻击行为的同龄人,以便考察获得更多提名的同龄人的社会地位和能力相关因素。此外,还考虑了同龄人报告与自我报告的外表相关欺凌的相关因素。参与者为371名澳大利亚青少年(55%为女孩,平均年龄12.0岁),他们完成了调查问卷。结果显示,受欺凌的青少年被认为不太受欢迎、亲社会程度较低、不太出众且长相不佳,他们自己也觉得自己吸引力较低、体育能力较差,更容易因外表被同龄人取笑。具有攻击性的青少年被认为更受欢迎且长相更好,但亲社会程度也较低。具有攻击性的青少年还认为自己学业能力较差,但恋爱能力较强,且报告的外表焦虑症状更多。同龄人报告测量的结果总体上支持了先前使用自我报告测量的研究结果,但外表受欺凌的同龄人报告与自我报告的显著相关因素似乎有所不同。
