Details

This dataset contains body satisfaction and wellbeing scores for a sample of 106 college students. The bodysat variable is the mean rating of how satisfied a person is (from 1 = very dissatisfied to 5 = very satisfied) with various aspects of their body (e.g. satisfaction with one's face, muscle tone, weight, etc.). It is a subscale of the Multidimensional Body Self-Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ). The wellbeing variable is the mean rating of strength of agreement (from 1 = strongly disagree to 7 = strongly agree) with a number of statements about a person's feeling of wellbeing.
