“…The AAI has been found to have excellent convergent validity with other measures of BDD in both adult and adolescents community samples (Roberts et al, 2018;2019). In the present study, the internal reliability for this measure was excellent (α = .92).…”

“…The BDD-YBOCS-A has many strengths but can be lengthy to administer, and self-report measures may be a helpful alternative and/or additional assessment method. A number of self-report questionnaires have been developed to assess BDD symptoms, but only a few have been evaluated in young people specifically, namely the Body Image Questionnaire -Child and Adolescent version (BIQ-C) (Schneider, Baillie, Mond, Turner, & Hudson, 2018) (Monzani et al, 2022;Roberts et al, 2018Roberts et al, , 2019Schneider et al, 2018). The BIQ-C and MY BODI both capture distress and impairment associated with BDD and are therefore useful screening tools and outcome measures, whereas the AAI assesses specific cognitive and behavioural processes maintaining BDD and is therefore a helpful process measure that can guide psychological therapy.…”

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a relatively common and highly impairing mental disorder that is strikingly underdiagnosed and undertreated in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). The only clinical guidelines for the management of BDD in youth were published nearly 20 years ago, when empirical knowledge was sparse. Fortunately, there has been a surge in research into BDD over the last 10 years, shedding important insights into the phenomenology, epidemiology, assessment and treatment of the disorder in young people. This review aimed to provide an overview of recent research developments of relevance to clinicians and healthcare policymakers. We summarise key findings regarding the epidemiology of BDD in youth, which indicate that the disorder usually develops during teenage years and affects approximately 2% of adolescents at any one point in time. We provide an overview of aetiological research, highlighting that BDD arises from an interplay between genetic and environmental influences. We then focus on screening and assessment strategies, arguing that these are crucial to promote detection and diagnosis of this under‐recognised condition. Additionally, we summarise the recommended treatment approaches for BDD in youth, namely cognitive behaviour therapy with or without selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. The review concludes by highlighting key knowledge gaps and priorities for future research including, but not limited to, better understanding aetiological factors, long‐term consequences and treatment.

“…The adult version reports 100% sensitivity and 89% specificity in individuals with a psychiatric diagnosis [23]. Further, in Australian youth the BDDQ-A has demonstrated acceptable reliability (α = .75) [24], and in those reporting high levels of BDD symptoms, known-groups validity [25].…”

This study explored the expression, occurrence, and treatment outcomes of comorbid body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) in 107 youth (7–17 years) seeking treatment for primary obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). In the overall sample, appearance anxiety (AA) was positively associated with OCD-related impairment, severity, symptom frequency, comorbid symptoms, and maladaptive emotion regulation. Comorbid BDD occurred in 9.35% of youth, equally affected males and females, and was associated with older age. AA negligibly reduced following treatment. Compared to those without (a) comorbid BDD and (b) without any comorbidity, youth with comorbid BDD reported greater social impairment and reduced global functioning but did not differ on the occurrence of comorbid anxiety and mood disorders. OCD response or remission rates did not differ. In youth with comorbid BDD, AA did not significantly reduce following treatment. Results suggest a more severe expression accompanies comorbid BDD in youth with OCD, with BDD persisting following OCD treatment.
