RESUMENObjetivos. Documentar los instrumentos más representativos en la medición de la imagen Corporal (IC) para el estudio, análisis y descripción de su evolución. Material y Métodos. Revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre las investigaciones que abordan la IC desde el inicio del estudio de este concepto (cuestionario de Secord y Jourard, 1953; test de siluetas de Stunkard, Sorenson y Schlusinger, 1983) hasta la actualidad. Resultados: Tablas de contenidos de los distintos estudios que ayudan al conocimiento del concepto y su evolución. Se observa cómo han ido evolucionando y perfeccionándose las escalas de figuras y los cuestionarios a fin de obtener procedimientos que permitan evaluar la IC y detectar alteraciones o trastornos de la misma. Conclusiones. Actualmente no existe un único método para evaluar la IC. La elección de la técnica depende del componente de la IC que se pretenda evaluar.PALABRAS CLAVE:  Imagen Corporal; Evolución del concepto;  Autoevaluación Diagnóstica;  Autoimagen; Instrumentos evaluación (fuen­te: DECS)ABSTRACTObjectives.

Extensive bibli­ographic revisión of body image since its beginning of the study of this concept (Secord y Jourard questionnaire, 1953, Stunkard, Sorenson y Schlusinger, 1983) to the present. Results: Tables of contents of the different studies that help the knowledge of the concept and its evolution. It is observed how the scales of figures and the questionnaires have evolved and perfected in order to obtain procedures that allow to evaluate the BI and detect alterations or disorders of the same. Conclusions. Nowadays there is not one only BI assessment method. The tecnic election depends on the BI component you want evaluate.KEYWORDS: Body Image;  Evolution of the concept; Diagnostic Self Evaluation;  Self Concept;  Evaluation instruments (source: MeSH NLM).

The purpose of this study was twofold, to estimate positive correlations between scores on the Tennessee Self-concept Scale for body image and self-concept within each gender and to assess differences between genders on measures of these two concepts, thereby testing the hypothesis that women have a more diminished body image than men. The study included 36 subjects, 18 male and 18 female. Within each gender were significant and positive correlations between measures of body image and self-concept. Between the genders, there was no significant difference in scores on self-concept but there was a difference in ratings of body image, with women being significantly less satisfied.

As a stigmatizing condition, obesity may lead to the internalization of devalued labels and threats to self-concept. Modified labeling theory suggests that the effects of stigma may outlive direct manifestations of the discredited characteristic itself. This article considers whether obesity’s effects on self-concept linger when obese youth enter the normal body mass range. Using longitudinal data from the National Growth and Health Study on 2,206 black and white girls, we estimated a parallel-process growth mixture model of body mass linked to growth models of body image discrepancy and self-esteem. We found that discrepancy was higher and self-esteem lower in formerly obese girls compared to girls always in the normal range and comparable to chronically obese girls. Neither body image discrepancy nor self-esteem rebounded in white girls despite reduction in body mass, suggesting that the effects of stigma linger. Self-esteem, but not discrepancy, did rebound in black girls.

There are three hypotheses regarding the relationship between Self-Concept Clarity (SCC) and Internet use. It was argued that Internet use: 1) decreases SCC, 2) increases SCC, 3) does not relate with SCC. The present study, in the form of a systematic and meta-analytic synthesis, aimed to explore: a) the extent empirical evidence can support each hypothesis; b) how Internet use-SCC relationship was addressed across studies; c) the intensity of the Internet use –SCC relationship; d) potential moderators. Twenty-one studies (N = 8,910) met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review (i.e., being quantitative, written in English, concerned with Internet use -SCC relationship) and 11 studies (N = 3,298) met the additional criteria for meta-analysis (i.e., being correlational, using self-evaluation instruments, quantifying general Internet use and including the information needed to calculate the meta-analysis specific indicators). Results emphasized that all three hypotheses are plausible, as distinct dimensions of Internet use related differently with SCC. However, the conclusions were limited by the extensive use of cross-sectional design. For general Internet use and SCC relationship the overall effect was -0.350, p < .01. Some moderators were significant: cultural background, Internet operationalization, age homogeneity, participants rewarding. This paper outlines the complexity of SCC – Internet relationship and underlines some of the gaps that should be further addressed. Implications and limits of the study (e.g., publication bias, excluded outcomes in the meta-analysis or possible omission of moderators) are discussed.

The self-concept of PLHIV is a decisive factor in interpersonal communication, because everyone behaves as much as possible according to his concept. The results of interviews with 10 PLWHA showed that the respondents still felt ashamed and felt that they were not useful for this life and felt excluded by their family and environment. The purpose of the study is to describe the concept of self (PLWHA). The design used in this study is quantitative with a descriptive approach. The sampling method uses accidental sampling as many as 188 respondents. The data collection tool uses a questionnaire. The results showed 113 respondents (60.1%) had a positive self-concept. 98 respondents (52.1%) had a positive body image, 116 respondents (61.7%) had an ideal positive self, 96 respondents (51.1%) had negative self-esteem, 167 respondents (83.5%) had an appearance negative role and 98 respondents (52.1%) had a positive self-identity. Conclusion in this study more than half the number of respondents have a positive self-concept, the respondent has accepted what happened to him and is ready to face life in the future and considers that life is a process of discovery. Keywords: PLWHA, self concept.
