This study examined the psychometric properties of a Persian translation of the Body and Appearance Self-conscious Emotions Scale. A total of 393 university students from Iran completed the Body and Appearance Self-conscious Emotions Scale, along with measures of depression, self-esteem, affect, body appreciation, physical self-perceptions, personality, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and body dysmorphic disorder. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the four-factor structure had adequate fit. Further analyses indicated that the Body and Appearance Self-conscious Emotions Scale scores evidenced internal consistency, convergent validity, and test–retest reliability. These results suggest that scores on the Persian version of the Body and Appearance Self-conscious Emotions Scale show evidence of reliability and validity in the Iranian population and can be used in the field of research and treatment.
