The purpose of this study was to determine the body parts with which early adolescent males and females are satisfied and dissatisfied. There were two objectives in this study: (1) To compare early adolescent male and female subjects across ages of 9 to 12 years on satisfaction with body parts using the body grid and self-esteem measure and (2) to compare male and female subjects’ ratings of specific body parts. Sixty-two subjects completed a body cathexis grid and self-esteem questionnaire. There were three research questions. (1) Is there a difference in satisfaction with body image among early adolescent subjects (ages 9- to 12- years-old)?; (2) Do male and female subjects differ with respect to the levels of satisfaction held for various body parts (upper torso, lower torso, limbs, and face)?; (3) Is there a relationship between early adolescent body image and self-esteem?The one-way analyses of variance (ANOVA) found that there was not a difference in satisfaction with body image between early adolescents by age. There was no difference by sex on body image satisfaction except for the lower torso body parts. Results also revealed that self-esteem had no effect on satisfaction with the body categories of limbs, upper torso, and lower torso, but did have an effect on the facial category. 1999 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392798935 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392798935 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
