In this model, <strong>the</strong> variables method of recruitment, living arrangements, visibility of main area of<br />

concern, salience, appearance discrepancy, social comparison, disguisability and visibility when<br />

clo<strong>the</strong>d are not statistically significant predictors of HADS Depression. <strong>The</strong> variables optimism<br />

(beta = -0.345, p < .001), social acceptance (beta = -0.245, p < .001) and satisfaction with social<br />

support (beta = -0.183, p < .001) are all negatively associated with HADS Depression and<br />

valence (beta = 0.104, p = .003) positively associated with HADS Depression.<br />

To a lesser extent, <strong>the</strong>re is a statistically significant positive relationship between age and HADS<br />

Depression in <strong>the</strong> sample (beta = 0.060, p = .025) and FNE and HADS Depression (beta =<br />

0.066, p = .038). <strong>The</strong>re is a small gender effect (beta = -0.067, p = .006) with males scoring<br />

0.57 points higher on average than females on HADS Depression after adjusting for all o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

variables in <strong>the</strong> model.<br />
