“…17 Assessments using full-body silhouette scales 17,19 and body regions and functions scales 31 are related to the attitudinal component, that is, they aim to measure the individuals' ability to perceive their own body dimension. 32 The methods used to assess body image consider that the body image perception is not a mere challenge to see well, but to capture and interpret what is seen according to the body identity of each individual. 19 However, the different instruments used to assess body image make further comparisons between studies difficult.…”

The bodily manifestations related to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and its treatment with antiretroviral therapy (ART) negatively affect not only the physical but also the psychological health of children and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection; including body image issues. [1][2][3][4][5] Morphological changes related to lipodystrophy include loss of fat normally located in the face, buttocks, and extremities (lipoatrophy), contributing to perceived thinness, or gains of fat in the breasts, abdomen, and neck (lipohypertrophy), contributing to perceived overweight. 1,2,5,6 Children and adolescents with HIV infection are at risk of dissatisfaction with their body image (i.e., the way the body is presented to each child). [3][4][5] Furthermore, in children and adolescents without an HIV diagnosis, body image can be influenced by numerous physical, psychological, environmental, and cultural factors as determined subjectively by each child, and these may include the child's sex, age, media, beliefs, race, and general values, all of which also apply to children and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection. [3][4][5] Body image is a unique, dynamic, and multifaceted construction. Self-report body image assessment tools can take many forms, including questionnaires and scales with silhouettes, photos, or videos that represent stimuli with which respondents can compare and evaluate themselves. 7 The choice of an assessment instrument by an investigator should take into account the age group that will be assessed, the nature of the assessment method, and the psychometric properties of the instrument (eg, reliability and validity for the population and uses for the investigator). 9As noted above, assessing the body image of children and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection is made important by the types of symptoms and medication (i.e., continuous ART) side effects that may redefine body contours and self-perceptions of these patients.

“…It relies on multimodal sensory inputs, including exteroception, proprioception, vestibular, somatosensory, and visual systems (Riva, 2014). Regarding proprioception specifically, it is important to assess the degree of body distortion, perception of specific body segments, the sensory aspects of freely projected body perception, and the perception of body boundaries – with or without visual or cognitive interference, as well as any external reference (Thurm et al, 2011; Riva, 2014).…”

Eating disorders (ED) are severe psychiatric disorders characterized by dysfunctional behaviors related to eating or weight control, with profound impacts on health, quality of life, and the financial burden of affected individuals and society at large. Given that these disorders involve disturbances in self-perception, it is crucial to comprehend the role of self-awareness in their prevalence and maintenance. This literature review presents different self-awareness processes, discussing their functioning across different levels of complexity. By deconstructing this concept, we can gain a better understanding of how each facet of self and personality relates to the symptoms of these disorders. Understanding the absence or impairment of self-awareness in ED holds significant implications for diagnosis, treatment, and overall management. By recognizing and comprehending the characteristics of self-awareness, clinicians can develop tailored interventions and evidence-based treatments for individuals with ED. Furthermore, this narrative review underscores the importance of considering temperament and personality factors in the context of ED, as temperament traits and personality characteristics may interact with self-awareness processes, influencing the development and maintenance of ED. Ultimately, the results highlight the pressing need for further research on the development of effective interventions and support strategies grounded in the aspects of self-awareness mechanisms for individuals affected by these disorders.

“…Apesar de todos os instrumentos existentes se proporem a avaliar o componente perceptivo, não há evidências de que proporcionem resultados finais iguais (Thurm et al, 2011 No entanto, as análises conduzidas entre os índices de estimação de cada instrumento e variáveis como IMC, insatisfação e sintomas de depressão podem ser consideradas evidências de validade convergente (Nunes & Primi, 2010), uma vez que a literatura aponta associações entre essas variáveis e a estimação do tamanho corporal (McCabe et al, 2006;Sarwer, Thompson & Cash, 2005;Schwartz & Brownel, 2002;Taylor & Cooper, 1992) (Coelho & Fagundes, 2007).…”

Ao Leonardo, pela paciência e cumplicidade em todos os momentos, acreditando mais em mim do que eu mesma e me dando os melhores motivos para seguir em frente. Às Profas. Sonia Regina Pasian e Rita de Cássia Moreira, pelas valiosas contribuições no exame de qualificação. Às minhas amigas, Natalia, Diana e Idalina, pelos sábios conselhos e pelo carinho e paciência em todos os meus desesperos! Sem nossas conversas, confidências e risadas esses anos seriam, com certeza, muito amargos. Às queridas amigas, Marilia e Vanessa, pela amizade e parceria, pelas conversas e desabafos que nos acompanharam desde a graduação e se tornaram ainda mais valiosos.
