“…20 The increased frequency of BN and the fat-phobic subtype of AN may arise from the heightened level of fat concern and perceived social pressure to become slim found among young Chinese people. 21 This is consistent with a higher level of body dissatisfaction demonstrated among both AN and BN patients in period 2 than period 1.…”

“…Participants indicated the extent to which they experienced corresponding emotions during the past 2 weeks on a scale between 1 = not at all and 5 = very much. Past studies have reported alphas between ˛ = .78 and ˛ = .84 in six different samples (Jackson & Chen, 2008. In this sample, alphas were ˛ = .87 for PA and ˛ = .93.…”

“…In contrast to the lack of research on body surveillance and body shame in Chinese samples, tripartite influence model features have garnered considerable attention as between and within gender influences on body dissatisfaction or disordered eating in Chinese samples (e.g., Jackson 2009, 2012;Jackson and Chen 2008a, b, c, 2011. Of relevance to this research, Jackson and Chen (2008b, c) found elevations in general appearance pressure and appearance social comparisons predicted individual differences in concerns with (1) overweight/fatness, (2) facial appearance, and (3) (short) physical stature within six different adolescent or young adult Chinese female and male samples, independent of general appearance dissatisfaction and body mass index (BMI).…”

Despite dramatic increases in cosmetic surgery in China during the past two decades, little is known about factors that predict individual differences in willingness to consider cosmetic surgery among young Chinese women and men. To address this issue, 379 undergraduate women and 204 undergraduate men from Chongqing, Southwest China completed a self-report battery assessing demographics, facets of objectified body consciousness (body surveillance, body shame), tripartite influence model features (i.e., appearance pressure from mass media and close interpersonal networks, appearance social comparisons, body dissatisfaction), specific culturally-salient sources of appearance dissatisfaction (facial appearance, fatness, stature) and cosmetic surgery consideration. In line with previous research, correlation analyses indicated cosmetic surgery consideration among women, and especially, among men, was related to body surveillance, body shame, most tripartite influence model features, and concerns with facial appearance. In final multiple regression models for each gender, body surveillance and facial appearance concerns emerged as the strongest unique predictors of cosmetic surgery consideration. Findings highlighted how features of objectified body consciousness and tripartite influence model as well as specific culturally-salient appearance concerns, rather than general body dissatisfaction, may help to account for variability in willingness to consider cosmetic surgery within samples of young Chinese women and men.
