本研究的目的是验证体重偏向内在化量表(WBIS-M)的修订版，该量表适用于不同体重状态的个体。148名男性和女性完成了一项在线调查，其中包括WBIS-M和相关的精神病理学测量。结果表明，WBIS-M具有较高的内部一致性和较强的结构效度。WBIS-M还显示出与身体形象、饮食病理、自尊、焦虑和抑郁症状显著相关，并且与这些结果明显相关，从抗脂态度和体重指数来看。本文还讨论了在不同样本中使用该量表的意义。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
The purpose of this research was to validate a modified version of the Weight Bias Internalization Scale (WBIS-M) that is applicable to individuals across different body weight statuses. One hundred forty-eight men and women completed an online survey that included the WBIS-M and relevant measures of psychopathology. Results indicated that the WBIS-M had high internal consistency and strong construct validity. The WBIS-M also demonstrated significant correlations with body image, eating pathology, self-esteem, and symptoms of anxiety and depression, and was associated with these outcomes distinctly from antifat attitudes and body mass index. Implications for the use of this scale in diverse samples are discussed. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
