Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale dataset

This repository contains data collected as part of an MSc Project in the Academic Year 2022/23. 205 participants are included who completed an online study, all of whom were undergraduate or postgraduate university students. Measures of disordered eating, weight bias internalisation, eating-disorder quality of life, health-related quality of life, depression symptoms, and anxiety symptoms were included.

The study looked at the relationship between disordered eating, quality of life, and weight bias internalisation. In addition to forming part of an MSc thesis, the data have subsequently been used as part of a further study to look at the psychometric properties of the WBIS-M in a student sample.
