Abstract:
In many countries, women are socialized to adopt a narrow definition of beauty. Research has revealed that, the ability to broadly conceptualize beauty (perceive beauty in diverse body sizes, shapes, and appearances) is linked to women’s lower anti-fat attitudes, higher body appreciation, and higher well-being. In this study, we evaluated the factor structure and reliability and validity of its scores with a diverse sample. Findings revealed that the women contains two factors—external and appearance features of beauty (BCBS-E) and internal features of beauty (BCBS-I)—contrary to the unidimensional factor structure found in previous studies. We recommend the use of the body image research programs as well as clinical practice and prevention programs with women seeking support for body dissatisfaction and disordered eating.
