Abstract

The purpose of the current research is to develop a causal model of evaluating body dysmorphic disorder using metacognitive assessment. It integrates positive psychological capital and spiritual well-being among women seeking rhinoplasty, with social harmony as a mediating factor. The research method is descriptive correlational, employing structural equation modeling. The study population consisted of all women seeking rhinoplasty who visited specialized and super-specialized cosmetic and nasal surgery clinics, including Top Clinic, Dr. Najaf Beigi Clinic, Tehran Beauty Clinic, and Tarah Tab Clinic, located in regions 1 and 2 of Tehran, during the autumn and winter of2023. Three hundred individuals were selected using the Convenience Judgmental Sampling method for the research sample. The research tools included the Metacognition Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire (Rabiei et al.,2011), the Psychological Capital Questionnaire by Luthans (2007), the Spiritual Well-being Questionnaire (Dehshiri et al., 2013), and the Al-72 Social Harmony Questionnaire (Lotfi, 1993). The data analysis employed Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method and utilized the software SPSS and Amos. The findings reveal that the causal model evaluating body dysmorphic disorder through Positive Psychological Capital and Spiritual Well-being among women seeking rhinoplasty, with the mediating role of social harmony, exhibits a favorable goodness of fit. Furthermore, social harmony significantly and negatively mediates the impact of Positive Psychological Capital and Spiritual Well-being on the assessment of body dysmorphic disorder among women interested in rhinoplasty.
