Gender differences in adolescent depressuve symptoms are substantially reduced when body image is statistically controlled. The current investigation examines the temporal association (13 - month time lag) between body image and depressive symptoms in an ethinically diverse sample of male and female adolescents. It was anticipated that body image would have a stronger impact on the depressive symptoms of girls than of boys and that african american would be less likely thant he other groups to exhibit increased depressive symptomatology as a function of a change toward a more negative body image. Findings showed that girls were more influenced by change in body image than boys, but our assumption that african american first would be least affected by body image changes was strongly disconfirmed. Relative to girls from other race / ethnicity groups. African american girls experienced a steeper increase in psychological distress as body image decline.
