Abstract:   (11 Views)
This study aimed to predict adults' body-image attitudes based on nostalgia and psychological capital. The present research employed a descriptive-correlational design. The statistical population consisted of female employees of Qazvin University of Medical Sciences in 2024, from whom a convenience sample of 240 individuals was selected. The instruments included the Nostalgia Inventory (NI; Batcho, 1995), the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ; Cash, 1985), and the Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ; Luthans et al., 2007). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression tests. The findings indicated that all components of nostalgia and psychological capital had a significant positive relationship with body image (p < 0.01). Moreover, nostalgia and psychological capital together were able to predict the criterion variable, explaining 41.8% of the variance in body-image attitudes (p < 0.001). These results suggest that nostalgia and psychological capital play an important role in explaining and predicting body-image attitudes among adults and are significantly associated with more positive body-image attitudes. The findings may provide a foundation for designing psychological interventions and promoting mental health, particularly in improving attitudes toward body image.
