Background and purpose: body image is a multidimensional structure that broadly defines the mental and internal manifestations of physical appearance and bodily experiences and is related to self-esteem, sexual identity and depression, so the present study aims to provide a structural model of body image. The basis of personality type with the mediation of perfectionism was done in people with body deformity disorder referring to the beauty clinics of Mazandaran province.
Methodology: The current research method is correlation and structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the research was made up of people who referred to the beauty clinics of Mazandaran province, among whom 330 people were selected according to the accessible method. The data collection tool was Sooto and Garcia's image satisfaction scale (2002), Costa and McCree's (1992) personality type scale, and Trishort et al.'s (1995) perfectionism scale. In this research, Amose23 software was used to analyze the information obtained from structural equation modeling.
Findings: The results of the research showed that the coefficient of the indirect path between neuroticism and visualization through negative perfectionism (p=0.039, β=0.041) is negative, the coefficient of the indirect path between conscientiousness and visualization (p=0.005, β=0.068) and the indirect path coefficient between extroversion and imagery (p=0.016, β=0.046) through positive perfectionism is positive and significant.
Discussion and conclusion: The results showed that positive perfectionism positively mediates the relationship between the two factors of conscientiousness and personality extraversion with body image, and negative perfectionism mediates the relationship between personality neuroticism and body image in a negative and meaningful way.
