Objective To explore the impact of short-form video use on body image disorder,and investigate the mediating effect of upward social comparison and appearance anxiety between the two.Methods Students from a medical college in Guizhou Province were selected as participants.The survey was conducted by using the short-form video use scale,ascending social comparison scale,appearance anxiety scale,and simple negative physical self scale to measure the participants'levels of short-form video use,appearance anxiety,upward social comparison,and body image disorder.A total of 943 valid questionnaires were obtained.The relevant data were statistically analyzed.Results Correlation analysis showed that short-form video use,upward social comparison,appearance anxiety,and body image disorder were significantly positively correlated with each other(r=0.20-0.70,all P<0.01).The results of the mediation effect test indicated that the short-form video use significantly positively predicted body image disorder.Between the short-form video use and body image disorder,upward social comparison and appearance anxiety had independent mediating effects,and both also exerted a chain-mediated effect through the path of"short-form video use → upward social comparison → appearance anxiety → body image disorder".Conclusion Short-form video use can directly predict the body image disorder of university students.Upward social comparison and appearance anxiety not only independently mediate the relationship between short-form video use and body image disorder,but also form a chain-mediated effect that jointly affects the relationship between short-form video use and body image disorder.
