The SATAQ-3R is widely used in research and clinical settings to explore the impact of sociocultural
factors on body image, eating behaviors, and psychological well-being. It helps researchers and clinicians
understand how societal norms and pressures related to appearance influence individuals' attitudes,
beliefs, and behaviors.

societal influences contribute to body dissatisfaction, disordered eating patterns, and other body image
concerns. This information can inform interventions and prevention efforts aimed at promoting positive
body image and reducing the negative impact of sociocultural pressures on individuals' mental health.
