Teen Body
Image Linked
with Mental
Health
TEENS WHO ARE DISSATISFIED
with their bodies are more likely
to experience depression in early
adulthood. A study in the Journal of
Epidemiology and Community Health
found that body dissatisfaction at
age 14 was a predictor of depression
at age 18 for both males and females.
As part of the study, 14-year-olds
in Britain rated aspects of their
bodies on a 5-point scale, including
weight, stomach, waist, thighs, butt,
hips, legs, face and hair. At that age,
32 percent of girls and 14 percent of
boys expressed dissatisfaction with
their weight.
At age 18, participants were
assessed for depression. Results
showed 1 in 10 females and 1 in
20 males had experienced at least
one mild depressive episode; 7 percent
of girls and about 3 percent of
boys had at least one moderately
severe depressive episode; and
1.5 percent of girls and 0.7 percent
of boys had at least one severe
depressive episode.
