Factors Affecting the Desire to Undergo Cosmetic Procedures Among the Nurses of Kermanshah, Iran: A Cross-Sectional Study.

The number of people undergoing cosmetic procedures (CP) has been growing around the world in recent years. The aim of this study was to determine factors involved in the desire of nurses to undergo CP. A total of 360 nurses were recruited in this cross-sectional study. Stratified random sampling was used to select the samples. The data were collected using the Social Appearance Anxiety Scale and a questionnaire addressing social factors affecting the desire to undergo CP. More than half of the nurses (56.7%) were willing. Gender, social factors, and social appearance anxiety (SAA) were associated with undergoing CP. The results of logistic regression indicated that women were four times more willing to undergo CP than men, and for each unit increase in SAA score, the odds of desiring to undergo CP increased by 1.04. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test confirmed the goodness-of-fit of the regression model. Moreover, 3 independent variables of gender, SAA, and social factors were powerful predictors of the desire to undergo CP that could explain 39.9%-53.6% of changes in the desire to undergo CP. Further studies are needed to investigate the amount of CP and motivations to undergo CP in nurses.

The correlation analysis between the appearance anxiety and personality traits of the medical staff on nasal and facial pressure ulcers during the novel coronavirus disease 2019 outbreak.

AimTo investigate the psychological status of medical staff with medical device‐related nasal and facial pressure ulcers (MDR PUs) during the outbreak of COVID‐19, analyse the correlation between their psychological status and personality traits, so as to provide a reference for personalized psychological support.DesignA total of 207 medical staff who were treating the COVID‐19 epidemic from Hunan and Hubei provinces were enrolled in this analytic questionnaire‐based study.MethodsWe used these measures: Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Short Scale (EPQ‐RSC), Social Appearance Anxiety Scale (SAAS), Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS) and demographic information forms online.ResultsMedical staff wearing protective equipment are particularly susceptible to nasal and facial MDR PUs, which is increasing their social appearance anxiety; neuroticism is significantly related to social appearance anxiety and negative emotion. We should pay more attention to their psychological state, cultivate good personality characteristics and reduce negative emotions, and thereby alleviate their MDR PUs‐related appearance anxiety.

A comparison of self-esteem and social appearance anxiety levels of individuals with different types of malocclusions

Objective The aim was to compare Rosenberg self-esteem scale (RSES), sensitivity to criticism scale (STCS) and social appearance anxiety scale (SAAS) scores of individuals with different types of malocclusions, and investigate the correlation between these scores and the index of complexity, outcome and need (ICON) score. Materials and methods One hundred and twenty individuals, who did not have any previous orthodontic treatment, were included. Group 1 included 40 patients with Class I malocclusion (median age of 14 years), Group 2 included 40 patients with Class II malocclusion (median age of 14.25 years) and Group 3 included 40 patients with Class III malocclusion (median age of 15.15 years). ICON scores were 46, 53 and 56 for Groups 1, 2 and 3, respectively. RSES, STCS and SAAS questionnaires were performed to the patients. Student’s t-test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Mann–Whitney’s U and Kruskal–Wallis’s tests were used for the statistical analysis. Results Group 1 showed significantly higher level of RSES scores compared to Groups 2 and 3 (p<.05). STCS scores were found to be significantly higher in Group 2, compared to other groups (p<.05). Group 1 (32.53 ± 8.94) showed significantly lower level of SAAS scores compared to Group 2 (39.63 ± 9.28) and Group 3 (39.42 ± 10.54) (p<.05). A significant positive correlation was found between the ICON and SAAS scores (r = 0.247, p=.007). Conclusions Adolescents with Class II and III malocclusions reported higher levels of social appearance anxiety scores, and lower levels of self-esteem scores compared to Class I. Complexity of orthodontic treatment need showed a significant impact on social appearance anxiety.

Adaptation of the prosocial behavioral intentions scale for use with Turkish participants: Assessments of validity and reliability

This study adapted and investigated the psychometric properties of the Prosocial Behavioral Intentions Scale (PBIS) in a Turkish sample in four sub-studies. Findings of a confirmatory factor analysis (Study 1), and tests of internal consistency and test-retest reliability (Study 2), concurrent validity (Study 3), convergent, and discriminant validity (Study 4), have been presented in this article. The confirmatory factor analysis conducted in Study 1 indicated that the unidimensional-factor structure had the best fit to the data. Study 2 found that the internal consistency value was acceptable and test-retest reliability over a 4-week period was adequate. Study 3 supported the concurrent validity of the Turkish PBIS with reference to altruism and empathy. In Study 4, convergent validity was established based on the correlation between the Adult Prosocialness Scale (APS) and Turkish PBIS. Factor loadings and t-values of the items, composite reliability (CR), and the Average Variance Extracted (AVE) value of the Turkish PBIS were optimal. Discriminant validity was confirmed based on the correlation between the Turkish PBIS and Social Appearance Anxiety Scale (SAAS), with adequate cross-loadings of the PBIS and the Fornell and Larcker criterion. Thus, the Turkish PBIS was found to be a brief, valid, and reliable measure of prosocial behaviors.

The Effects of Sport Education and Fine Arts Education on Social Appearance Anxiety

The purpose of this study is to compare the social appearance anxiety levels of university students studying in different fields. Social appearance anxiety scales which were filled in by 481 students were assessed in the study. T-test and one way ANOVA were used for statistical analysis, while LSD tests were used to find out differences.Social appearance anxiety scale scores were found to be higher in male students when compared with female students. No statistically significant difference was found between social appearance anxiety scale scores in terms of genders (p&gt;0.05). In terms of field of education, social appearance anxiety scale scores of students receiving sport education were found to be lower than the scores of students receiving art and music education and the highest social appearance anxiety scale scores were found in students in the department of educational sciences. Statistically significant difference was found between social appearance anxiety scale scores in terms of field of education (p&lt;0.001).As a conclusion, it was found that sport education caused a higher decrease in social appearance anxiety when compared with fine arts education, while fine arts education caused a decrease in social appearance anxiety when compared with students who received neither sport nor fine arts education. In terms of social appearance contribution, it is thought that art and music education have similar effects to those of sport. Giving sport education to students who are not receiving sport education or making them do sport and giving those interested in sport a chance to be interested in art can be a factor in decreasing social appearance anxiety.

The changes of self-esteem, sensitivity to criticism, and social appearance anxiety in orthognathic surgery patients: A controlled study.

To evaluate the changes of psychologic parameters, such as self-esteem, sensitivity to criticism, and social appearance anxiety, in skeletal Class III patients undergoing orthognathic surgery and to compare the psychologic status of skeletal Class III patients with control subjects. The first group consisted of 60 patients with a mean age of 22.07±1.30years who did not need orthognathic surgery. The second group comprised 45 patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion (mean age 21.40±2.02years) who were evaluated in terms of psychologic changes from before to after surgery. A third group consisted of 50 Class III patients (mean age 20.09±2.59years) who were evaluated before surgery and a different 50 Class III patients (mean age 22.15±2.03years) who were investigated after surgery. The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Social Appearance Anxiety Scale were used to evaluate psychologic parameters both before and after surgery. Analysis was carried out with the use of independent- and dependent-sample t tests, 1-way analysis of variance, and post hoc Tukey test. Self-esteem of the patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion increased, and sensitivity to criticism and social appearance anxiety decreased significantly after the surgery (P<0.001). In the patients with Class III malocclusion, self-esteem was significantly lower and social appearance anxiety significantly higher before orthognathic surgery than in the control group, and at the postoperative evaluation Class III patients had significantly higher self-esteem than the control group (P<0.001). Through the improvement in facial appearance after surgery, patients' self-esteem increases and their sensitivity to criticism and social appearance anxiety decrease.

Psychosocial effects of otoplasty in adult patients: a prospective cohort study.

This prospective study investigated changes in psychosocial status following otoplasty. All patients who participated in the study filled a sociodemographic form that included age, gender, educational status and job preoperatively. Body Image Scale (BIS), Social Appearance Anxiety Scale (SAAS) and Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale (RSES) were completed prior to surgery and 6months postoperatively. A total of 20 patients completed psychometric measures of body image, social appearance anxiety, and self-esteem. Of the patients (6 males, 14 females) whose charts were reviewed, the mean age was 24.05 ± 8.25years (median 22 years: range 18-49) years. Six months post operatively BIStotal scores were increased significantly relative to that of the baseline values (p = 0.005).SAAS scores were decreased significantly relative to that of the baseline values (p = 0.003).Although the postoperative RSES score tended to improve, it was not significantly different from the baseline value. The RSES scores showed significantly strong correlation with the SAAS scores (p < 0.001) and moderate correlation with the BIS scores at baseline (p = 0.013). None of the patients admitted for surgery had low self-esteem at baseline, with all patients categorized as having either moderate (n = 10, 50%) or high (n = 10, 50%) self-esteem. Following surgery, only one patient improved from moderate to high self-esteem. The baseline and postoperative BIS, SAAS, and RSES scores did not significantly differ between women and men. None of the other sociodemographic characteristics showed significant relationships with the three scales. Otoplasty can provide significant positive psychosocial benefits, even in an adult population. Therefore, this type of surgery should be offered to any patient seeking a solution to prominent ear-related psychosocial problems regardless of age.

Social Appearance Anxiety and Rosenberg Self-esteem Scores in Young Physical Disabled Athletes

Introduction: The social appearance anxiety is defined as tension and anxiety experienced by people when they are assessed by others in terms of their physical appearance and self-esteem is defined as feelings of one's personal self-worth, reflecting person's evaluation of his or her own worth. Aim: This study was conducted to investigate the differences in social appearance anxiety and self-esteem scores in physical disabled athletes and non-disabled athletes. Materials and Methods: One hundred and forty-eight physical disabled athletes and 60 non-disabled athletes participated in the study. The Turkish versions of the Social Appearance Anxiety Scale and Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale was used to assess the points associated with social appearance anxiety and self-esteem. Results: Disabled athletes had higher self-esteem and social appearance anxiety scores compared to non-disabled athletes. Also, disabled athletes having medal had decreased self-esteem and social appearance anxiety scores compared to disabled athletes not having medal. These results suggest that physical activity can improve mental health in especially successful athletes. Also, the self-esteem scores had positive correlation with the social appearance anxiety score in total sample, as well as in disabled athletes and non-disabled athletes. Conclusion: The higher self-esteem and social appearance anxiety scores in disabled athletes may be related to the higher depression, anxiety and psychological stress in athletes compared to non-athletes. These results suggest that physical activity can improve mental health in only top successful athletes.

Measuring and managing appearance anxiety in patients with systemic sclerosis

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Systemic sclerosis (SSc, scleroderma) is a progressive, autoimmune, connective tissue disease of unknown etiology that can cause changes in appearance in socially important areas of the body (e.g. face and hands). Social concerns related to changes in appearance can contribute to anxiety specific to situations where one’s appearance will be evaluated, or appearance anxiety. Appearance anxiety is a relevant but underexplored construct in SSc.Areas covered: We review the current knowledge on appearance anxiety in SSc, including assessment of the construct and interventions. Relevant references in the field were obtained through a literature search in MEDLINE/PubMed and PsycINFO for articles published through September 2018.Expert commentary: There is a dearth of research in the SSc literature examining the construct of appearance anxiety. A growing interest in appearance anxiety in SSc has led to several relevant measures being validated in this population, including the Social Appearance Anxiety Scale. Important areas for future research are the development of interventions to address appearance anxiety and the use of randomized controlled trials to evaluate these interventions.

Male Nursing Students' Social Appearance Anxiety and Their Coping Attitudes.

This study aimed at examining social appearance anxiety levels of male nursing students and their coping attitudes and identifying the relationship between them. A cross-sectional research approach was adopted in a study population of 180; the sample comprised 129 students. Data were collected using a socio-demographic information form, the Social Appearance Anxiety Scale (SAAS), and the Assessment of Coping Attitudes Inventory (COPE). The average age of students was 20.54 ± 1.49 years. The male students’ average score obtained from the SAAS measure was 32.64 ± 13.07, while that of the COPE Inventory was 138.11 ± 14.47. Significant correlations were detected between students’ SAAS scores and COPE scale scores. There were negative relationships between social anxiety scores and COPE subscales of positive reinterpretation and growth (p < .05), use of instrumental social support (p < .05), active coping (p ≤ .01), and planning (p ≤ .01). In contrast, there were positive relationships between social anxiety scores and COPE subscales of mental disengagement (p ≤ .01), denial (p ≤ .01), behavioral disengagement (p ≤ .01), restraint (p ≤ .01), use of emotional social support (p < .05), substance use (p ≤ .01), and acceptance (p < .05). The conclusion was that male students who do not perceive themselves as having an ideal body image face high social appearance anxiety. There is a prejudice that social appearance anxiety has negative effects on these students’ self-confidence. In this context, this research revealed concrete results about how male nursing students have battled the prejudices that they have faced throughout their student life.

Investigation of Appearance Anxiety and the Gender Role in Women's Sports Except for Social Gender Norms

The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI), conducted by Hart et al. (2008) and adapted to Turkish by Dogan as Social Appearance Anxiety Scale (SAAS) (Dogan, 2010) was used in our study. In the analysis of the data, t-test and ANOVA test were used. As a result; There was a significant difference between female athletes' hormone use variable and appearance anxiety and gender role (p &lt;0.05). It was determined that female athletes using hormone had appearance anxiety. A significant difference was found between maternal educational status and appearance anxiety and gender role. A significant difference was found between the paternal education status variable and the masculine gender role. A significant negative correlation was found between the age variable and appearance anxiety of female athletes. There was a positive relationship between appearance anxiety and masculine gender role. When the gender role values increase the values of appearance anxiety increase. It is recommended that special contact with women athletes who go beyond the social gender norms should be established according to expert opinions and all actors such as sports managers, trainer, sportsman, referee, physical education teacher etc. should be informed. In order to increase the proportion of women engaged in sports in the society, to support the girls who are new to the sports and not to create false opinions about the sportswomen, it is recommended to put forward the role models suitable for the female athlete profile.
