The BSQ assesses concerns about body shape and weight. This tool was specifically developed to investigate the role of these concerns in the development, maintenance, and treatment of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.
What this tool is good for:
The BSQ provides valuable insights for clinicians and researchers in understanding body image issues in both clinical and non-clinical populations. It is particularly useful for identifying individuals who may be at risk of developing eating disorders, such as bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa.
