Abstract

Contrary to expectations, unisex Taiwanese female high-school boarding students did not have significantly greater correlations between perceived body and face dysmorphia than home-domiciled students, based on a priori selected responses to previously-validated questionnaire of body-shape concern (BSQ) and homologous items from an exploratory survey of self-perception of the orofacial area.
