Abstract
The present investigation is of a quantitative type with a non-experimental, transversal and retrospective design. The sample consisted of 992 subjects, 500 girls and 492 boys. This is done in primary school with pre-teens in northern Mexico. It rescues the corporal perception: real, ideal, social, future image, corporal nonconformity, corporal expectation, social corporal distortion and corporal idealization, in relation to the variables of gender and socioeconomic level; for what is used as a measuring instrument the computerized version of the original Body Image Assessment (BIAS). The results obtained show, although not overwhelmingly, in relation to gender, that girls are more vulnerable to problems related to body image, as well as preadolescents, boys and girls, of a high socioeconomic level.
