Аннотация:Body image study has important implications for understanding self-harm phenomena in teenagers. It links principal tasks of adolescent development and the dissemination of cultural practices that make an accent on body modification and enhancement in order to exert an impact on subjective reality. The attitudinal and conceptual aspects of body image and their relationships to depressive symptoms of 25 girls with repetitive self-harm were studied and compared to a control group. MBSRQ questionnaire was used to assess attitudinal aspects and Sensations Sorting Task (SST) – to assess conceptual aspects of body image. CDI was used to assess depression level. Girls from clinical group scored lower on all evaluation and fitness and health orientation scales of MBSRQ, revealing more negative and passive attitudes towards body. The conceptual structure of bodily experiences had marked differences and was characterized by over- inclusiveness and unconventionality. The patterns of relationships between body image measures and CDI scales were different in clinical and control group, demonstrating higher impact of affect on body image distortions and weak protective function of body image in girls with self-harm. The analysis of the descriptors used to represent bodily sensations of self-harming reveals allows revealing some personal issues in girls with self-harm.
