PURPOSE: The Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale (WBIS-M) is perhaps the most frequently used measure of internalised weight bias and has growing support for its psychometric properties. However, there is a lack of clarity regarding how many items are necessary for adequate interpretation of the WBIS-M and limited study of internalised weight bias in young adults. The aims of this study are to evaluate different versions of the WBIS-M, assessing structural and convergent validity. METHODS: The current study recruited 205 university students (aged 18-46, mean body mass index = 22.60 kg/m RESULTS: Confirmatory factor analysis suggested that a 10-item version of the WBIS-M showed acceptable structural validity and expected correlations with relevant constructs (depression, anxiety, weight status, and eating pathology). Estimates of internal consistency reliability were high for all three versions. CONCLUSION: Given potential problems with one item, the 10-item WBIS-M presents a measure of internalised weight bias with sound psychometric properties in young adults. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, well-designed cohort study.
