“…For example, cosmetic surgery often causes psychological complications, such as anxiety ( Huang et al, 2011 ), depression ( Honigman et al, 2004 ), and body dysmorphic disorder ( Fang et al, 2017 ). Self-objectification and the concomitant body surveillance have been demonstrated as risk factors for body image disturbances ( Knauss et al, 2008 ; Jackson et al, 2015 ), disordered eating ( Peat and Muehlenkamp, 2011 ; Jackson and Chen, 2015b ), and depression ( Jones and Griffiths, 2015 ). Thus, some intervention programs to help young women reduce or reject materialistic values may have potentially far-reaching benefits.…”

Research reveals significant positive associations between materialism and cosmetic surgery consideration, yet little is known about why this relationship exists. To address this question, the present study examined potential mediators of the links between materialism and cosmetic surgery consideration. A sample of 336 Chinese undergraduate women completed measures of materialism, self-objectification, capitalization of sexual attractiveness, and cosmetic surgery consideration. Correlational analysis showed that materialism, self-objectification, and capitalization of sexual attractiveness were significantly positively correlated with cosmetic surgery consideration. The results of path analyses revealed that higher materialism predicted more willingness to consider cosmetic surgery, both directly and indirectly via higher self-objectification and capitalization of sexual attractiveness.

“…Items were rated from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). According to research on two Chinese undergraduate samples (e.g., Jackson et al, 2015 ), six of the eight Body shame subscale items were loaded on one component and significant correlations with body surveillance, eating disturbances and perceived appearance pressure from media were assessed. In the present study, α = 0.80.…”

“…Items were scored on a five-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (Never like me) to 5 (Always like me). Sound reliability and validity have been reported in Chinese samples (e.g., Jackson et al, 2015 ). In the present study, α = 0.91.…”

“…Indeed, experimental and correlational research has found that materialism contributes to the development of women’s self-objectification ( Teng et al, 2016a , b ). Given that body surveillance is positively correlated with body image disturbance ( Fitzsimmons-Craft et al, 2012 ; Jackson et al, 2015 ), therefore, we propose that materialism may influence Chinese college women’s body dissatisfaction via body surveillance.…”

The present study aimed to examine the mechanisms underlying the links between materialism and body dissatisfaction. A sample of 583 Chinese undergraduate women completed a questionnaire measuring materialism, body surveillance, body shame, and body dissatisfaction. Correlational analysis showed that materialism, body surveillance, and body shame were significantly positively correlated with body dissatisfaction. The results of path analyses revealed that higher materialism predicted more body dissatisfaction, albeit indirectly, via higher body surveillance and body shame.

“…Beden izleme alt boyutu ile beden utancı alt boyutu arasında saptanan ilişkinin geçmiş çalışmalarda .32 ve .60 arasında değiştiği görülmüştür. (Chen ve Russo, 2010;Cole, Davidson ve Garvais, 2013;Faries ve Espie, 2016;Jackson, Zheng ve Chen, 2016;Kozee ve Tylka, 2006). Mevcut çalışmada elde edilen korelasyon değeri bu aralıkta yer almamakla birlikte, pozitif yönde ve anlamlı olması açısından diğer çalışmalarla tutarlıdır.…”

Bu çalışmanın amacı Nesneleştirilmiş Beden Bilinci Ölçeği`ni (NBBÖ) Türkçeye uyarlamak ve ölçeğin psikometrik yeterliliklerini bir Türk örnekleminde değerlendirmektir. Bu amaçla, araştırmanın örneklemini oluşturan 337 katılımcıya (171 kadın, 166 erkek) Nesneleştirilmiş Beden Bilinci Ölçeği, Kendini Nesneleştirme Ölçeği, Koşullu Öz-Değer Ölçeği, Öz-Bilinç Ölçeği, Vücut Algısı Ölçeği ve İki Boyutlu Sosyal İstenirlik Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. NBBÖ verileri üzerinde açımlayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri yapılmış ve sonuçlar ölçeğin orijinaline uygun olarak üç faktörlü (beden utancı, kontrol inancı ve beden izleme) bir yapısı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Ölçüt bağıntılı, ayırt edici ve yakınsak geçerliği test etmek amacıyla NBBÖ'nün alt ölçekleri ile çeşitli ölçekler arasındaki ilişkilere bakılmıştır. Sonuçlar ölçeğin geçerliğinin kabul edilebilir bir düzeyde olduğuna işaret etmiştir. Ölçeğin güvenirliğini test etmek üzere Cronbach Alfa güvenirlik katsayıları hesaplanmıştır. Bulgular özellikle beden utancı ve kontrol inancı için güvenirliğin yeterli düzeyde olduğunu ve literatür bulgularıyla tutarlı olduğunu göstermiştir.
