“…Indeed there is evidence to suggest that this gender difference is robust across a range of Western cultures other than Australia, including the USA (Chang and Christakis 2003) and France (Parnot et al 2006), as well as nonWesternized cultures, such as China (Chen and Jackson 2008), and India (Iqbal et al 2006). Studies investigating gender differences in body image importance have found similarly consistent results; namely, that across a wide range of contexts women report greater concern about physical appearance than men (e.g., Canada, Morry and Staska 2001;United States, Noll and Fredrickson 1998).…”

This study examined the relationship between body image and self-esteem across time and age for men and women. Participants were 150 men and 239 women aged between 20 and 86 years (M=59.73), recruited from the general population in Australia. They completed a questionnaire assessing self-esteem, body dissatisfaction, body importance, and a range of other domains of life satisfaction at baseline and 2 years later. Cross-sectionally, we found that higher self-esteem was associated with lower body dissatisfaction, but there was no consistent relationship between these variables across time for age and gender. Women were more dissatisfied with their bodies than men; yet, men placed greater importance on their appearance than women, and also reported high levels of body dissatisfaction.

“…Généralement, les adolescentes et les femmes se perçoivent plus grosses qu'elles ne le sont en réalité [13,14]. Les recherches ont montré que de nombreuses femmes, quels que soient leur âge et leur poids, sont insatisfaites corporellement [15].…”

Psychosocial Correlates of Body Image and Body Change Behaviors Among Malaysian Adolescent Boys and Girls

et al. 2010

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This study used a psychosocial framework to investigate the relationships between BMI, body dissatisfaction, body change behaviors and mental health/behavioral problems amongst a sample of 513 Malay, Indian and Chinese adolescent boys and girls in Malaysia who completed questionnaires assessing these variables. Expected gender differences were not found in relation to body dissatisfaction or engagement in strategies to increase weight, but boys reported greater engagement in strategies to increase muscles. Relationships between body dissatisfaction and engagement in body change behaviors and mental health/ behavioral problems varied across race and gender. These findings suggest that the psychosocial framework is a useful way to conceptualise body dissatisfaction and related behaviors, and that caution should be exercised in generalising findings across gender and culture.
