We investigated the mediating role of body shame in the relationship between self-objectification and body image coping strategies in highly physically active university women. Bivariate correlations revealed body shame was positively related to self-objectification, appearance fixing, and avoidance coping but unrelated to positive rational acceptance. In addition, self-objectification was positively related to appearance fixing and avoidance coping but unrelated to positive rational acceptance. Mediation analyses showed that body shame partially mediated the relationship between self-objectification and avoidance and appearance fixing coping but did not mediate the relationship between self-objectification and positive rational acceptance. Future research should examine other potential mediators or moderators in this relationship and explore the role of positive body image framed within self-objectification theory.

自我目标化和身体形象应对策略的使用：羞耻感在高度运动的女性中的作用。

我们调查了身体羞耻在自我目标化和身体形象应对策略之间的关系中的中介作用，这些女性在体育活动非常活跃的大学女性中很受欢迎。二元相关性显示，身体羞耻与自我客体化，外表固定和回避应对成正相关，但与积极理性接受无关。此外，自我客体化与外表固定和回避应对成正相关，与积极理性接受无关。调解分析表明，羞耻感部分地介导了自我目标化与回避与外表固定应对之间的关​​系，但并未调解自我目标化与积极理性接受之间的关系。
