A Three-Year Longitudinal Study of Body Image, Eating Disturbance, and General Psychological Functioning in Adolescent Females
Abstract
Using a longitudinal design, adolescent females were initially evaluated then retested after a three-year period for levels of body image disturbance, eating dysfunction, psychological functioning, and multiple developmental variables (maturational status, level of obesity, history of being teased about appearance). Multiple regression analyses revealed that (a) level of obesity predicted teasing, (b) teasing led to overall appearance dissatisfaction, (c) body dissatisfaction predicted restrictive eating practices, and (d) bulimic symptoms predicted global psychological function. These findings are limited by a small sample size; however, the results are consistent with past research. Indications for future investigations are offered.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
