The Relationship between Father Involvement and Daughter's Body Image and Self-esteem (SBS thesis, Haigazian University)https://doi.org/10.62811/th.0070https://haigrepository.haigazian.edu.lb/handle/123456789/197This study investigated the relationship between a perceived father involvement, availability and closeness of father with self-esteem and body image in young adult females. The study used three scales: Father Involvement scale, Body Image scale, and the Self-esteem scale; in addition to demographic questions. A sample of 102 university students completed self-report questionnaires that measured their perception of their relationship with their fathers, their self-esteem, and their body image. Regression and correlational analyses showed that father involvement (r= .577), availability (r= .439), and closeness (r= .491) are strongly correlated with self esteem. Also results showed that father involvement is strongly correlated (r= -.678) with body image in this particular sample. Moreover, results confirmed that self esteem and body image are negatively correlated.The Relationship between Father Involvement and Daughter's Body Image and Self-esteem
