Body-Esteem Scale |
The Body-Esteem Scale is a 24-item self-report measure designed for use with children. The items were developed to assess how children feel about themselves and how they believe others view them. Sample items include "I like what I look like in pictures" and "There are lots of things I'd change about my looks if I could." Children responded by selecting "yes" or "no" for each item. In this study, children were also given the option of selecting "I don't want to answer." This scale has been found to be a reliable measure of body esteem in children as young as 7 years old. All items from this scale were used in the pilot study. |

Physical Appearance Related Teasing Scale |
The Physical Appearance Related Teasing Scale was adapted for the current study. The original scale consists of 18 items with two factors: weight/size teasing and general appearance teasing. Items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 14, 16, 17, 18 were used in the current study. Items 1-6 load onto the weight/size teasing factor and items 14, 16, 17-18 load onto the general appearance teasing factor. Items were modified to be developmentally appropriate. The Perception of Teasing Scale (POTS) was incorporated to measure perceptions of distress where participants were asked to rate the degree to which they were upset by the teasing on a 3-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (not upset) to 3 (very upset), modified from the original The POTS was originally developed with adults and has been used extensively with children and adolescents. |

Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale |
A 10-item scale that measures global self-esteem by measuring both positive and negative feelings about the self. Items were modified to be developmentally appropriate for children. Example items include "I like myself" and "I feel there are a lot of good things about me." The scale is uni-dimensional. All items are answered using a 4-point Likert scale format ranging from "strongly agree" to "strongly disagree." In this study, children were also given the option of selecting "I don't want to answer." All items from this scale were used in the pilot study. |

Appearance Conversations Scale |
The Appearance Conversations Scale assesses the frequency with which participants report talking about their bodies and appearance with friends. In the original measure, responses are rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from "never" (1) to "very often" (5). In the current study, the scale was modified to a 3-point Likert scale ranging from "never" (1) to "a lot" (3) to be developmentally appropriate. |

Figure Rating Scale |
were developed based on adult figure drawings by Stunkard, Sorenson, and Schulsinger (1983). Figures were created to illustrate body weight ranging from very thin to obese. This scale can be used to assess preferences and perceptions of self, ideal self, ideal other child, other adult, and ideal other adult. In the current study, "self" and "other-gender" were used. For example, if participants identified as girls, they were presented with corresponding figure drawings for "self" ("which picture looks the most like you?") and figure drawings of boys for "other-gender" ("which picture shows the way you think is best for girls/boys to look?") |
