Inventery (BICI) and examine a model about the
relationship between body mass index$ body image
dissatisfaction and self-esteem$too. Therefor$ two
hundred nine high school girls$ which selected
through cluster random sampling$ responded to
Rosenberg’s self-esteem scale and BICI. The
reliability coefficients of the BICI were calculated in
spilt-half and internal consistency methods$ which
were 0.66 and 0.84 respectively. The varidtiy of the
inventory was investigated by costruct validity (factor
analysis and subscale-total correlations).Factor analysis
of the inventory using obeliqe rotation based on scree
test$ showed 2 factor labelled dissatisfaction of the body
and interfrence with social function$ which coverd 39.88
percent of the total variance. In subscale-total
correlations$ correlation coefficients of two factors
with total score were 0.87$ 0.82 and with together
was 0.45. In part$ examination of model$ each of
paths existing in model investigated by path analysis
that only the path body image dissatisfaction to selfesteem
was significant and remained in model and
rest of the paths removed.In general$ findings of the
research$ confirm appropriate validity and reliability
of the persian form of Body Image Concern
Inventory and showed that we can simply apply this
instrument in clinical and research situation for
evaluation one’s attitude of personal appearance.But
