本研究调查了在存在或不存在面部差异的情况下，感知到的同伴骚扰和对外表的满意度之间的关系。对661名年龄在10岁或16岁的唇裂和/或腭裂儿童进行横断面抽样，完成对外表和同伴骚扰的满意度测量。结果表明，对于10岁的儿童或青春期男孩来说，可见的和不可见的唇裂的存在与外表不满或更高水平的同伴骚扰无关。在两个年龄组中，同伴骚扰都与对外表的不满有关。在青少年组中，唇裂可见度与性别之间存在相互作用，有明显唇裂的女孩对外表最不满意。然而，裂隙可视性和外貌满意度之间的联系完全被同伴骚扰的经历所介导。研究结果表明，需要进一步探索社会互动对主观外貌感知的作用。2009爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
This study investigated associations between perceived peer harassment and satisfaction with appearance in the presence or absence of a facial difference. A cross-sectional sample of 661 children aged 10 or 16, with a cleft lip and/or palate, completed measures of satisfaction with appearance and peer harassment. Results indicated that the presence of a visible versus a nonvisible cleft was not associated with appearance dissatisfaction or higher levels of peer harassment for children aged 10 or for adolescent boys. Peer harassment was related to dissatisfaction with appearance in both age groups. In the adolescent group, there was an interaction between cleft visibility and gender, girls with a visible cleft being least satisfied with appearance. However, the association between cleft visibility and satisfaction with appearance was fully mediated by experiences of peer harassment. The results highlight the need to further explore the role of social interactions for subjective perceptions of appearance. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
