Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop the Beliefs related to Shape and Diet Scale(BSDS), which measures the tendency to have the dysfunctional thinking peculiar to eating disorders. The preliminary study was conducted to examine the items for 512 female students. Then, the BSDS was administered 2861 female students. As a result of factor analysis with varimax rotation, six factors were extracted : Self-esteem, Approval, Diet, Weight, Dependence, Personality and Popularity. Cronbach's α Coefficients and the test-retest reliability revealed high reliability of the BSDS. High concurrent validity of the BSDS was also supported by the parallel tests with the EAT-20, the Binge Eating Scale, and the JIBT-20. As we investigated the relationship between the BSDS and eating disordered tendencies estimated by EAT-20, it was suggested that the more one has the eating disorder tendency, the more she one the dysfunctional thinking related to body-shape and diet.
