MURAWSKI, Brenda; ELIZATHE, Luciana; CUSTODIO, Jésica y RUTSZTEIN, Guillermina. Argentine validation of the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3. Rev. Mex. de trastor. aliment [online]. 2015, vol.6, n.2, pp.73-90. ISSN 2007-1523. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmta.2015.09.001.
In this study is presented the adaptation and validation of the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3 (SATAQ-3) in women with and without eating disorders. The sample included 58 patients with eating disorders and 237 university students from Ciudad de Buenos Aires (Argentina), aged between 18 and 34. Two comparison groups were formed according to the presence or absence of eating disorders. In both groups, the four-factor solution proposed in the original version of the scale is the most appropriate (excluding items 19 and 20). This four-factor solution explained 58% (women with eating disorders) and 61% (women without eating disorders) of the total variance. Cronbach's α for the total scale was .91 (women with eating disorders) and .94 (women without eating disorders). Concurrent and construct validity were also evidenced. This study shows appropriate indicators of validity and internal consistency for the Argentine version of SATAQ-3. Therefore, it is a promising instrument for the assessment of different dimensions of sociocultural influence towards appearance among women with and without eating disorders.
