“…To illustrate, individuals with body‐image related difficulties (eating disorders and body dysmorphic disorder) self‐report significantly higher levels of disgust relative to controls both when focusing on their own bodies (Bornholt et al, ; Neziroglu, Hickey, & McKay, ) and in multi‐item measures of self‐disgust (Ille et al, ). In addition to significantly predicting overall eating difficulties, self‐disgust also significantly moderated the relationship between eating disorder symptoms and suicidal ideation, such that eating disorder symptoms predicted suicidal ideation in those high in self‐disgust but not in those low in self‐disgust (Chu, Bodell, Ribeiro, & Joiner, ).…”

This systematic literature review examined the clinical utility of the construct of self‐disgust in understanding mental distress. Specifically, the review assessed whether there is a shared conceptual definition of self‐disgust, the face and construct validity of the quantitative assessment measures of self‐disgust, and the predictive validity of self‐disgust in formulating the development of a range of psychological difficulties. A systematic database search supplemented by manual searches of references and citations identified 31 relevant papers (27 quantitative, 3 qualitative, and 1 mixed). Analysis of qualitative papers indicated a number of shared features in the definition of self‐disgust, including a visceral sense of self‐elicited nausea accompanied by social withdrawal and attempts at cleansing or suppressing aspects of the self. Quantitative assessment measures appeared to capture these dimensions and evidenced good psychometric properties, although some measures may have only partially captured the full self‐disgust construct. Strong relationships were observed between self‐disgust and a range of mental health presentations, in particular, depression, body‐image difficulties, and trauma‐related difficulties. However, these relationships are smaller when the effects of other negative self‐referential emotions were controlled, and stronger conclusions about the predictive validity of self‐disgust are limited by the cross‐sectional nature of many of the studies.

“…Research with adults also suggests interdependent thoughts and feelings, although the in/congruence of self concepts and feelings varies with the context (see Forgas, 2000; Sedikides, 1995). A recent study with children (Bornholt & Nelson, 2002) confirmed that associations between self concepts and feelings varied among common activities. These include moderate links between children's self concepts and feelings about physical activities.…”

“…Responses form five internally consistent general feelings (alpha .69 to .84) scaled from (1) low to (5) high: “ feeling OK ” (alright, comfortable, pleased), “ Guilt ” (embarrassed, guilty, ashamed); “ Worry ” (nervous, concerned, worried); “ Anger ” (furious, bad tempered), and “ Disgust ” (yuk, disgust, sick). Composite feelings are affective self‐evaluations over and above the fine nuances of meaning and are at the same level of abstraction as self concepts (for CFA see Bornholt, 2002; Bornholt & Nelson, 2002; Van de Ven, Bornholt, & Bailey, 1996).…”

Problématique . Ce projet avait pour objectif d'étudier les fondements sociaux et personnels des images de soi des enfants en rapport avec les activités physiques selon le modèle de la motivation de l'apprentissage en spirale. Ce modèle rapproche l'image de soi des enfants, leurs sentiments, leurs choix, leurs stratégies de résolution de problèmes et leurs performances, tout ce qui peut stimuler et contraindre les motivations des enfants à participer à des activités physiques dans les années à venir. Méthode . La première étude a porté sur de jeunes enfants ( N = 40. Age: m = 6,3; σ = 1,1), mais aussi sur des moins jeunes ( N = 36. Age : m = 10,2; σ = 1,2). La seconde concernait des enfants de 4 à 11 ans ( N = 56. Age : m = 8; σ = 2,1). Résultats . Dans la première étude, les bases personnelles et sociales des images de soi variaient selon l'âge et les images des soi n'étaient pas nécessairement en rapport avec les performances observées. Dans la deuxième étude, les images de soi et les sentiments relatifs aux activités incitaient à une participation ultérieure fournissant aux enfants des occasions de développer leurs capacités et leur stratégies cognitives. Conclusion . Les résultats confirment les fondements hypothétiques personnels et sociaux des images de soi, ce qui est essentiel dans le modèle de l'apprentissage en spirale des motivations des enfants. Il en ressort qu'il existe des pistes communes et diversifiées qui conduisent les enfants à s'adonner à des activités physiques, ce qui a des retombées importantes sur les programmes cliniques et éducatifs concernant la santé et le bien-être des enfants.This project examined the personal and social bases of children's self concepts about movement within the Motivational Spiral Model. The model relates children's self concepts, feelings, choices, task strategies, and performance that feed forward to support and constrain children's motivations to participate in physical movement in subsequent years. Study 1 was with younger ( N = 40, age 6.3, SD 1.1 years) and older children ( N = 36, age 10.2, SD 1.2 years). Study 2 was with 4-to 11-year-old children ( N = 56, age 8.0, SD 2.1). In Study 1, personal and social bases of self concepts varied for younger and older children, and their self concepts were not necessarily associated with actual performance. In Study 2, children's self concepts and feelings about movement feed forward to subsequent participation providing children with opportunities to develop their task strategies and skills. Results support the proposed personal and social bases to self concepts that are central to the Motivational Spiral Model. The findings suggest common and diverse pathways to children's participation in physical activities, that have important applications in educational and clinical programmes for children's health and well-being.

“…Adolescence is a transition period from childhood to adulthood, when mental maturity and physical changes due to growth spurt, secondary sex characteristics, and reproductive function are completed 3,4 . These physical changes are triggered by the hypothalamus and the adrenarch, when androgen secretion is increased in both sexes, in a process that commences 2–3 years before adolescence at approximately 10 years of age 5 .…”

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most common type of hair loss in adults, but it also occurs in adolescents, though its prevalence among this younger population is not well established. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical manifestations and endocrine status of adolescent patients with AGA in Korea. This 5-year (January 2001-August 2005) clinical study involved 43 adolescent patients with AGA. Testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) laboratory studies were undertaken to investigate androgenic hormonal effects. Hair loss severity was categorized using the Hamilton-Norwood and Ludwig classifications. Gender ratio showed a male predominance (M : F, 35:8), and a mean age at onset of 16.8 years. These adolescent patients showed milder symptoms than adults, and a family history of alopecia was found in 72.1%, which is greater than that reported in adults, which ranges 30.9-64.5%. Seborrheic dermatitis (27.9%) was the condition most commonly associated with AGA among our study subjects, followed in descending order by acne vulgaris and atopic dermatitis. Serum levels of testosterone and DHEA-S were within normal limits, except in one subject. Our study shows the clinical characteristics of AGA in Korean adolescents.
