- W79181017 abstract "This study was undertaken in order to investigate the relationshipbetween personality and body image, and to ascertain theeffect of exercise on measures of personality, body image andsomatotype.The subjects were 50 adult women in the age range 18-37 yearswho were assigned to either an exercising or non-exercising groupat random.Body image was measured using the Slade Body Image EstimationApparatus and an Abacus. Personality was assessed by means of theEysenck Personality Inventory and the Cattell Sixteen PersonalityQuestionnaire. The subjects were also somatotyped by the Heath-Carter Method. Physical fitness scores, obtained for eachindividual before and after the conditioning programme, were basedon the criterion of Ismail (1965).The pre- and post-conditioning programme results obtained wereanalysed by repeated measures of analysis of variance, principalcomponents analysis and discriminant function analysis.The main findings were: -(a) Two significant relationships between personality and bodyimage existed in the study groups. These were anassociation between overall inaccuracy in body imageestimation and Eysenck's neuroticism/extraversion, andcorrelation between accuracy in estimation of the Face anddominance and aggressiveness.(b) Changes in personality through participation in exercisewere found to be much less marked than hitherto suggested,with only Cattell's 16PF Q4 varying significantly, and someevidence for reduction in the EPI neuroticism factor.(c) Repeated measures of analysis of variance showed asignificant effect of exercise on body weight, percentagebody fat, Ismail Fitness Score and on the Endomorphycomponent of the Heath-Carter somatotype.(d) No significant changes in body image estimation could bedemonstrated in the exercising group; there was neverthelessan association between fitness levels and body image." @default.
