“…The original questionnaire contained four factors: clothing, social activities, eating restraint, and grooming and weighing (Maïano, Morin, Monthuy-Blanc, & Garbarino, 2009;Rosen et al, 1991). Other studies have found two or three factor models (Campana, Tavares, da Silva, & Diogo, 2009;Legenbauer, Vocks, & Schütt-Strömel, 2007;Lydecker, Cotter, & Mazzeo, 2014;Riva & Molinari, 1998). Internal consistency reliability (Cronbach's = .64 -.89) and test-retest reliability (r = .64 -87) vary across studies (Legenbauer et al, 2007;Lydecker et al, 2014;Maïano et al, 2009;Riva & Molinari, 1998;Rosen et al, 1991).…”

The BIAQ is correlated with measures of eating disorder psychopathology, body shape and size, social physique anxiety, and self-esteem, and participants with bulimia nervosa had greater scores compared to controls (Maïano et al, 2009;Rosen et al, 1991).…”

BODY IMAGE & DISORDERED EATING 1 Measures of body image: Confirmatory factor analysis and association with disordered eating Mia Pellizzer Marika Tiggemann Glenn Waller Tracey WadeIn press: Psychological Assessment (21/1/17) BODY IMAGE & DISORDERED EATING 2 AbstractThe current study aimed to examine the factor structure, reliability, and validity of three measures of body image disturbance (body image flexibility, body avoidance, and body checking) considered to be relevant to eating disorder psychopathology, with the aim of determining the optimal structure of each for use in treatment planning and outcome monitoring. Additionally, the study aimed to identify which factors had the strongest association with disordered eating. Participants were 328 female undergraduate university students aged 17-25 years. Confirmatory factor analyses were conducted followed by correlational, regression, and t-test analyses. The original proposed models were retained for the body image flexibility and body checking measures, while an alternative model was supported for the body image avoidance measure. All three solutions were found to have acceptable validity and reliability. Scores on each measure differed significantly between normal and disordered eaters. The body image flexibility measure and selected subscales of the body image avoidance and checking measures had unique associations with eating disorder psychopathology and psychosocial impairment. Results of this study indicate how the assessment of body image can be achieved in treatment of eating disorders in such a way as to reduce participant burden while adequately assessing the body image disturbance that is characteristic of eating disorders.Keywords: Body image; eating disorders; body image flexibility; body image avoidance; body checking; confirmatory factor analysis. Public Significance StatementThe present study advances knowledge in the assessment of body image relevant to eating disorder psychopathology. Suggestions are provided for brief, yet effective measurement that can be applied to research and clinical settings. BODY IMAGE & DISORDERED EATING 3Body image is a multi-faceted construc...

“…Given controversy regarding factor structure of the BIAQ within research, the current study used a total score, rather than specific subscales to provide a more robust measure of body image avoidance. However, in general, research has reported the BIAQ to be a mostly valid and psychometrically sound instrument, with internal consistencies ranging between .64 and .80 (Maïano, Morin, Monthuy-Blanc, & Garbarino, 2009) and good temporal stability across ages and gender (Legenbauer et al, 2007). The BIAQ has been reported to discriminate well between clinical and nonclinical populations, with individuals diagnosed with bulimia nervosa obtaining higher scores than control groups (Campana et al, 2012.

“…Participants were asked to complete the Body Image Avoidance Questionnaire (BIAQ; Rosen, Srebnik, Saltzberg, & Wendt, 1991). The BIAQ is a self-report measure of behavioral tendencies, which have been identified to accompany body image disturbance (Legenbauer, Vocks, & Schütt-Strömel, 2007). The BIAQ consists of 19 items, divided into four factors: clothing, social activities, eating restraint and grooming and weighing (Rosen et al, 1991).…”

With research highlighting the increasing prevalence and severity of body image and eating disturbances in males, particularly athletes and regular gymnasium users, the current study examined body image and eating disturbances in a sample of male gym users and non-gym users (N = 180). Based on previous research, it was predicted that male gym users would report greater body image disturbance (e.g., body image avoidance and body dissatisfaction) and eating pathology, compared with non-gym users. Results of the study partially supported hypotheses, revealing body dissatisfaction and eating pathology were significantly increased in male gym users. However, no significant differences were observed in body image avoidance behaviors, though this is likely because of methodological limitations associated with psychometric measures selected. The study provides preliminary evidence that male gym users do experience subclinical eating and body image concerns, with some also experiencing clinically significant symptoms that could be precursors to the later development of an eating disorder. Results of the current study highlight the importance of educating key stakeholders within health and fitness centers, through community-based interventions, to increase awareness regarding male body image and eating disturbances.

“…Other researchers report adequate internal consistency for alternate forms of the BIAQ, α = .64-.87 (Legenbauer, Vocks, & Schütt-Strömel, 2007;Maïano et al, 2009). Multiple studies report good test-retest reliability, with reliability coefficients of r = .64 -.87 (Legenbauer, Vocks, & Schütt-Strömel, 2007;Maïano et al, 2009). Test makers assert that the BIAQ displays good convergent validity.…”

Existing theory and empirical investigations indicate that body image disturbance (BID) is a multidimensional disturbance, composed of several related yet distinguishable components (e.g., cognitive-affective, behavioral, and health/fitness related components; Banefield & McCabe, 2002; Cash, 2002;Maïano, Monthuy-Blanc, & Garbarino, 2009;Thompson et al., 1999;Zanetti, Santonastaso, Sgaravatti, Degortes & Favaro, 2013). There is little research, however, that addresses the common presentations of theorized components of body image in individuals. The present study sought to identify common profiles of BID based on their symptomatic content and investigate how these profiles related to external criteria in a non-clinical sample of 119 young women. Results of latent class analyses revealed three distinct profiles of BID. Follow up analyses suggest that these profiles are related to BID severity and are associated with differences in the degree of endorsement of BID symptoms (i.e., low, moderate, high levels of symptoms) but do not reflect differences in content of BID symptoms (i.e., the same type of symptoms of BID appear in each class). Follow up analyses suggest that severity profiles are associated with significant differences on measures of psychopathology, appearance related teasing, and body mass index. These results suggest that in a non-clinical sample individuals with BID are distinguished by the degree to which they display symptoms of BID but not the type of BID symptoms displayed. Results indicate that clinicians should expect and account for similar degrees of disturbance in multiple areas body image and that BID may be associated with more general forms of distress. Future work should explore how profiles of BID may vary in different samples, particularly samples of eating disordered individuals and men.iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
