Abstract: Previous studies suggested that parenting styles, dispositional mindfulness and self-compassion were associated with body image. However, these constructs have not been examined together in any study; consequently, the relationship pattern of these constructs is largely unknown, especially about how some of these constructs are related to one positive aspect of body image (e.g., body appreciation). The present study examined the association between adolescents’ perceived parenting styles and body appreciation and explored whether such association was mediated by mindfulness and self-compassion.
