We introduce alatent actual–ideal discrepancy(LAID) approach based on structural equation models (SEMs) with multiple indicators and empirically weighted variables. In Study 1, we demonstrate with simulated data, the superiority of a weighted approach to discrepancy in comparison to a classic unweighted one. In Study 2, we evaluate the effects ofactualandidealappearance on physical self‐concept and self‐esteem.Actualappearance contributes positively to physical self‐concept and self‐esteem, whereasidealappearance contributes negatively. In support of multidimensional perspective,actual‐ andideal‐appearance effects on self‐esteem are substantially—but not completely—mediated by physical self‐concept. Whereas this pattern of results generalises across gender and age, multiple‐group invariance tests show that the effect ofactualappearance on physical self‐concept is larger for women than for men.
