Abstract

Cilj provedenog istraživanja bio je ispitati odnos zadovoljstva tijelom s različitim oblicima
perfekcionizma i internalizacije sociokulturalnih stavova. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 414
sudionika (NM=106, NŽ=308) koji su u prosjeku bili stari 21,56 godina (M=21,56, SD=1,869),
a studiraju na sastavnicama Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Sudionici su ispunili Ljestvicu
perfekcionizma u tjelesnom izgledu (Yang i Stoeber, 2012), ljestvicu Zadovoljstvo tijelom iz
Inventara slike tijela i promjene tjelesnog izgleda (Ricciardelli i McCabe, 2002) te ljestvicu
Utjecaj medija iz Upitnika percipiranih sociokulturalnih utjecaja na sliku tijela i promjenu
tjelesnog izgleda (McCabe i Ricciardelli, 2001). Uz navedeno, prikupljeni su i demografski
podaci sudionika te podaci o fakultetu i godini studiranja. Utvrđene su statistički značajne rodne
razlike u internalizaciji sociokulturalnih stavova o tjelesnom izgledu kroz utjecaj medija na
faktoru Utjecaj medija na mršavljenje, na kojem studentice postižu više rezultate, što upućuje
na doživljaj većeg utjecaja medija na mršavljenje. Na cjelokupnom uzorku dobivena je značajna
pozitivna povezanost između zadovoljstva tijelom i pozitivnog perfekcionizma. S druge strane
zadovoljstvo tijelom negativno je povezano s negativnim perfekcionizmom, što upućuje na
važnost razlikovanja ova dva oblika perfekcionizma. Niske, ali značajne negativne povezanosti
utvrđene su između zadovoljstva tijelom i faktora Utjecaj medija na mršavljenje i Utjecaj
medija na povećanje mišićavosti. U skladu s očekivanjima, temeljem različitih oblika
perfekcionizma i internalizacije sociokulturalnih stavova o tjelesnom izgledu moguće je
objasniti značajan postotak varijance zadovoljstva tijelom (R
2=0,578).
S obzirom na relativno mali broj istraživanja na ovu temu u okviru studentske populacije,
rezultati istraživanja doprinose boljem razumijevanju odnosa ispitivanih konstrukata. Praktični
doprinos ovog istraživanja očituje se u mogućnosti primjene dobivenih rezultata u
osmišljavanju psiholoških preventivnih i/ili intervencijskih programa u radu sa studentskom
populacijom.

Abstract (english)

The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between body satisfaction and different
forms of perfectionism and the internalization of sociocultural attitudes towards physical
appearance. A total of 414 participants (Nm=106, Nf=308) who were on average 21,56 years old
(M=21,56, SD=1,869) and are studying at The University of Zagreb, participated in the
research. Participants completed the The Physical Appearance Perfectionism Scale (PAPS;
Yang and Stoeber, 2012), Body Satisfaction Scale from Body Image and Body Change
Questionnaire (McCabe and Ricciardelli, 2002) and Media Influence Scale from The Perceived
Sociocultural Influences on Body Image and Body Change Questionnaire (McCabe and
Ricciardelli, 2001). Participants' demographic information, as well as information about faculty
and year of study were also collected. Statistically significant gender differences were obtained
on the factor Influence of the media on weight loss. Namely, results showed that female students
reported a greater perception of the influence of the media on weight loss than male students.
On the whole sample, a significant positive correlation was found between body satisfaction
and positive perfectionism. On the other hand, body satisfaction is negatively correlated with
negative perfectionism, suggesting the importance of distinguishing these two forms of
perfectionism. Low but significant negative correlations were found between body satisfaction
and the factors Influence of media on weight loss and Influence of media on increasing muscle
mass. According to expectations, it has been shown that a significant percentage of the variance
in body satisfaction can be explained based on perfectionism and internalization of
sociocultural attitudes towards physical appearance (R
2=0,578).
Given the relatively small number of studies on this topic within the student population, the
results of the research contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between the
examined constructs. The practical contribution of this research refers to the possibility of
applying the obtained results in the design of psychological preventive and/or intervention
programs in working with the student population.
