چکیده
ادراک ناهمخوانی بین بدن واقعی و بدن آرمانی در افراد باعث می‌شود آنها راهبردهای مقابله ای را برای مدیریت تجارب پریشان کننده تصویر بدن‌شان به کار برند. پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسی رابطه بین ناهمخوانی بدن با راهبردهای مقابله ای غیر انطباقی تصویر بدن (اجتناب تجربه ای و ترمیم ظاهر) با میانجیگری شفقت به خود و شرم از بدن در دانشجویان دختر انجام گرفت. اعضای نمونه را ۳۰۰ دانشجوی دختر دانشگاه شهید چمران اهواز که به روش نمونه گیری تصادفی چند مرحله ای انتخاب شدند، تشکیل می‌دادند. به منظور جمع آوری اطلاعات از پرسشنامه ایده­ آل ­های تصویر بدن، مقیاس آگاهی از بدن شی ­انگاشته، پرسشنامه راهبردهای مقابله ­ای تصویر بدن و مقیاس شفقت به خود (فرم کوتاه) استفاده شد. ارزیابی الگوی پیشنهادی با استفاده از روش تحلیل مسیر انجام گرفت. نتایج نشان داد مسیر مستقیم ناهمخوانی بدن به اجتناب تجربه‌ای معنی دار نبود در حالیکه مسیر مستقیم ناهمخوانی بدن به ترمیم ظاهر معنی دار بود. علاوه بر این، مسیر شفقت به خود به شرم از بدن معنی دار بود. همچنین مسیر غیر مستقیم ناهمخوانی بدن به راهبردهای مقابله ای غیر انطباقی تصویر بدن از طریق شفقت به خود و شرم از بدن معنی‌دار بود. این مطالعه همسو با مدل درمان مبتنی بر شفقت نشان میدهد، شرم و شفقت، ابعاد هیجانی نارضایتی از تصویر بدنی محسوب می شوند.

چکیده English

Understanding the actual - ideal body discrepancy in individuals makes them use coping strategies to manage the distracting experiences of their body image. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of body discrepancy with body image maladaptive coping strategies (experiential avoidance and appearance fixation) with the mediating role of self-compassion and body shame. Sample consisted of 300 female undergraduate students of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz who were selected by multi -stage random sampling. In order to collect information, we used the body-image ideals questionnaire, objectified body cnsciousness scale, body image coping strategies inventory, self-compassion scale (short form). The conceptual model of the present study was analyzed using path analysis method. The results indicated that the path coefficient of body discrepancy to experiential avoidance was not significant, but the path coefficient of body discrepancy to appearance fixation was significant. Furthermore, the path coefficient of self -compassion to body shame was significant. Also, indirect path of body discrepancy to body image maladaptive coping strategies through self-compassion and body shame was significant. Finding of this study is consistent with compassion focused therapy showed the role of shame and compassion as emotional aspect of body image disturbance.
