Software Tool - Further Details...

Body Image II includes two interactive computer-based learning tools to explore the relationship between socio-cultural factors and how we perceive, think and feel about our bodies.

Learning Tool 1 (the morphing tool) allows students to estimate body shapes and sizes by changing the level of 'fatness' and 'tallness' of a male and / or female morph. The morphing tool allows students to:

· produce a morph of their perception of their own body
· produce morphs that show ideal sizes and perceived sizes of males and females their own age
· compare their size and that of others with 'norm' values.

Learning Tool 2 allows students to complete The Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire - Appearance Scale (MBSRQ-AS). The questionnaire investigates affective (how do I feel?) and cognitive (how do I think?) dimensions of body image and students can compare these values to norma values.

This Learning Tool allows students to assess:

· Appearance Evaluation (AE): the feelings of physical attractiveness or unattractiveness
· Appearance Orientation (AO): the extent of investment in one's appearance
· Body Areas Satisfaction Scalle (BASS): satisfaction with specific areas of the body and its perceived appearance
· Overweight Preoccupation(OP): feelings of fat anxiety, weight preoccupation, dieting, and eating habits
· Self-Classified Weight (SCW): how one perceives and feels about one's weight, from very underweight to very overweight
· Compare these dimensions with norm values.
