“…In female adolescents, the two forms of BWD were associated with alcohol use. This association has been found elsewhere [9,12,13]. In the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance (YRBS) study, undertaken in the United States in 2013, female adolescents who reported BWD were more likely to report lifetime alcohol use and heavy episodic drinking [12].…”

“…This association has been found elsewhere [9,12,13]. In the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance (YRBS) study, undertaken in the United States in 2013, female adolescents who reported BWD were more likely to report lifetime alcohol use and heavy episodic drinking [12]. A potential explanation for this association could be the negative parent-adolescent relationships as a risk factor shared for both, BWD and alcohol use [35].…”

Body weight dissatisfaction (BWD) among adolescents may be a predictor of adoption of health-risk behaviors. The study aimed to assess the gendered association between two forms of BWD (feeling underweight/overweight) and cardiovascular health-risk behaviors among Brazilian adolescents. This cross-sectional study used data from the National Study of Cardiovascular Risks in Adolescents (ERICA) in Brazil, including 71,740 adolescents aged 12–17 years. BWD was defined as satisfied, dissatisfied feeling underweight and dissatisfied feeling overweight. We considered four health-risk behaviors: tobacco use, alcohol use, physical inactivity and skipping breakfast. Assessment of the associations between BWD and these behaviors were undertaken using logistic regression models. All analyses were stratified by gender. Analyses revealed that 14.9% of male adolescents and 14.5% of female adolescents were dissatisfied feeling underweight and 21.5% of males and 39.9% of females were dissatisfied feeling overweight. Among male adolescents, dissatisfied feeling overweight was associated with greater odds of physical inactivity and skipping breakfast. Among female adolescents, dissatisfied feeling underweight and overweight were associated with higher odds of alcohol use and skipping breakfast. These results highlight the importance of BWD and the association with a range of adolescent health behaviors increasing cardiovascular risk over the life course, depending on gender.

“…The results of the current study suggest that body image dissatisfaction could be a target in the treatment of those who suffer from depression in combination with a high BMI. Modifying dysfunctional body image-related thoughts, feelings, and behaviors (Alleva et al, 2015), could subsequently reduce adverse mental and physical health consequences such as low self-esteem (Cash and Fleming, 2001;Davison and McCabe, 2006), eating disorders (Cash and Brown, 1987;Gardner and Brown, 2014;Garner and Garfinkel, 1981), physical inactivity, alcohol use and smoking (Grogan, 2006;Schlissel et al, 2017;Stice and Shaw, 2003).…”

“…In addition, both depression and obesity are associated with distorted perceptual and attitudinal body image (Marsella et al, 1981;Noles et al, 1985;Weinberger et al, 2016). Distorted body image has been associated with a number of unfavorable consequences, such as worse psychosocial functioning (Cash and Fleming, 2001;Davison and McCabe, 2006), poorer health behavior (Grogan, 2006;Schlissel et al, 2017;Stice and Shaw, 2003), and anorexia and bulimia (Cash and Brown, 1987;Gardner and Brown, 2014;Garner and Garfinkel, 1981). However, it is not known whether depression and obesity jointly affect body image, and whether their combined associations might be greater than the separate associations of depression and obesity with body image.…”

Depression and body mass index (BMI) are known to be associated with body image, however, their independent or joint effects on body image in adults are largely unknown. Therefore, we studied associations of depression diagnosis, severity, and BMI with perceptual body size (PBS) and body image dissatisfaction (BID). Cross-sectional data from 882 remitted depressed patients, 242 currently depressed patients and 325 healthy controls from the Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety were used. Depressive disorders (DSM-IV based psychiatric interview), standardized self-reported depressive symptoms (Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology) and BMI were separately and simultaneously related to body image (the Stunkard Figure Rating scale) using linear regression analyses. Thereafter, interaction between depression and BMI was investigated. Analyses were adjusted for demographic and health variables. Higher BMI was associated with larger PBS (B = 1.13, p < .001) and with more BID (B = 0.61, p < .001). Independent of this, depression severity contributed to larger PBS (B = 0.07, p < .001), and both current (B = 0.21, p = .001) and remitted depression diagnosis (B = 0.12, p = .01) as well as depression severity (B = 0.11, p < .001) contributed to BID. There was no interaction effect between BMI and depression in predicting PBS and BID. In general, depression (current, remitted and severity) and higher BMI contribute independently to a larger body size perception as well as higher body image dissatisfaction. Efforts in treatment should be made to reduce body dissatisfaction in those suffering from depression and/or a high BMI, as BID can have long-lasting health consequences, such as development of anorexia and bulimia nervosa and an unhealthy lifestyle.
