Self-perception is a person's perception and understanding of their own thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In terms of weight, self-perception can refer to an individual's attitude towards their weight and the extent to which they are aware of their weight status. Internalized weight bias refers to the difference between an individual's assessment of their own weight and their assessment of the weight of others. Therefore, to study the relationship between self-perception and internalized weight bias, we first need to understand the two concepts and their measurement methods, and explore whether they affect each other. In addition, the relationship between self-perception and internalized weight bias in healthy young people is also related to a number of other factors, such as the sociocultural environment, and individual mental and physical health.
