WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Body Image Questionnaire Test - Symptoms and Signs

body image

This measure is used to obtain a brief self-report profile of body image attitudes and related distress. The Body Image Questionnaire is intended to capture perceived comfort versus discomfort with one’s appearance in a time-efficient format. It may be used as a screening or baseline measure in clinical and research settings.

Developed by Jade, D., it consists of 20 items and typically requires about 4 minutes to complete. Scores can support case formulation and treatment planning by identifying the degree of negative body-related thoughts and feelings, monitoring change over time, and contextualizing body image concerns alongside other presenting symptoms. The Body Image Questionnaire should be interpreted within the broader clinical picture and in conjunction with other assessment data.
