The Body Image Scale for Youth (BISY) is a self-report assessment tool designed to evaluate body image dissatisfaction among adolescents. 

What this tool is good for:

The BISY primarily measures how adolescents perceive and feel about their bodies, which can be crucial for identifying issues related to body image that may contribute to eating disorders. It provides valuable insights that can help in the early identification and intervention of body image-related problems.
