摘要 A cross-sectional study, testing a model of predictors and consequences of body dissatisfaction, was undertaken in Taiwan from December 30, 2006 to January 10, 2007. Two hundred and thirty-two female college students enrolled at a major university completed the self-administered questionnaire. Analytical results revealed that body dissatisfaction among respondents increased with BMI (β = .32, p < .001), perceptions of how others viewed their bodies (β = .38, p < .001), and upward social comparisons (β = .17, p < .01). Body dissatisfaction also markedly influenced respondent weight-loss intentions (β = .51, p < .001). Results imply that medical, psychological and social factors must be considered by school health educators wishing to understand the causes and consequences of body dissatisfaction among female college students.
