- Abstract
The importance given to the physical appearance may be a risk factor for unhealthy attitudes and behaviors, so it is necessary to have a valid and reliable instrument to assess it. The aim of this study was to adapt the Appearance Schemas Inventory (ASI-R) developed by Cash, Melnyk & Hrabosky (2004a), for the Spanish speaking population. 579 young men and women aged between 17 and 28 years participated. The results show that the internal consistency of the instrument is adequate (α=.920), as did its two factors, Self-assessed Significance (α=.891) and Motivational Significance (α=.864), and together account for 55.0% of the variance. We conclude that the adapted instrument is appropriate for evaluating young Mexicans.
