Shape- and weight-based self-esteem and the eating disorders
Article Abstract:
Research was conducted to establish the practical psychometric features of the Shape- and Weight-Based Self-Esteem (SAWBS) inventory in women with eating disorders. The self-report instrument was tested in 48 women with ages ranging between 17 and 45 who were diagnosed as having eating disorders including bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa. SAWBS scores indicate that the effect of shape and weight on self-esteem was not related to actual shape and weight but to perceptions of being overweight.
