Semantic Differentials for the Assessment of Body-Image and Perception of Personality in Eating-Disordered Patients

Two semantic differentials for the assessment of body-image and the perception of personality are presented. In addition to the utility and economy of the two measures, discriminant validity was verified by showing that there was a highly significant difference in the profiles of anorectic patients and controls. Factor analyses showed very similar dimensions in both samples and resulted in four internally consistent scales. These scales were also sensitive to changes in body-image and the perception of personality during inpatient treatment of adolescent anorectic patients and were used to evaluate these changes.
