These models showed good validity and reliability to independent samples. Thus, a reduced model composed of two factors and ten items was found for each sex. Therefore, a theoretical investigation of the scale content was performed based on literature. The complete model of the scale (23 items and four factors) was invariant across sexes, but it did not fit the samples even after refinement. The prevalence of body satisfaction among participants was calculated using the final models of the instrument. An invariance test was performed across sexes using multi-group analysis. Factorial, convergent and discriminant validity and reliability were evaluated. A total of 1481 individuals (female = 1035 male = 446) aged between 18 and 40 years old participated in the study. Methodsīrazilian young adults completed the Body Satisfaction Situational Scale and a sociodemographic questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis was employed to investigate an instrument developed to assess body satisfaction of Brazilian women and men and to identify participants’ body satisfaction level. ![]()
