Resumen

El presente estudio examinó los efectos de la flexibilidad de la imagen corporal (la aceptación de las experiencias negativas de la imagen corporal) y la insatisfacción con la imagen corporal en la conexión social (CS). La muestra estuvo formada por 235 estudiantes universitarios. Un modelo de análisis de trayectoria robusto reveló que la flexibilidad de la imagen corporal predijo la CS solo cuando estaba mediada por la autocompasión y la depresión, mientras que el sexo (es decir, ser mujer) tenía un efecto directo en la conexión social. La insatisfacción con la imagen corporal no fue un predictor significativo de CS, pero predijo el IMC. Este estudio contiene información relevante sobre las asociaciones entre la imagen corporal y la CS, dado que los resultados se obtuvieron controlando las covariables relevantes. Los datos presentados aquí sugieren que la flexibilidad de la imagen corporal se relaciona con la CS en mujeres con síntomas de depresión más bajos o alta autocompasión.
