The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between body - consciousness and self - consciousness of male and female adolescents. The questionnaire was based on body - satisfaction, public self - consciousness, private self - consciousness and social anxiety. Out of the total 1850 university students, 1834 university students (934 male students and 900 female students) completed the questionnaire and were included in subsequent analyses. The main findings are summarized as follows.
1) Among female students, there was a strong desire to slim down (from the point of view of current BMI and ideal BMI), regardless of body - satisfaction level.
2) Among female students, the low body - satisfaction group showed tendencies of being unhappier with their current body shape.
3) Among male university students, there was no relationship between body- satisfaction and private self - consciousness. However, among female students, the high body - satisfaction group showed a high score in private self - consciousness .
4) Both male and female student groups showed that the lower their body - satisfaction was, the higher their public self - consciousness and social anxiety were.
