Abstract

Individuals with body dysmorphic disorder engage in maladaptive behaviors such as checking mirrors, excessive grooming, asking others for reassurance, and avoiding situations due to their appearance. These counterproductive coping mechanisms, or false “safety behaviors,” serve to maintain and exacerbate symptoms rather than alleviating them. The present review provides a summary of cross-sectional, longitudinal, experimental, and treatment research to highlight the relevance of these behaviors to body dysmorphic disorder. Additionally, the article identifies current gaps in the research and future directions that will be important in further understanding the role of these behaviors.

身体畸形障碍患者安全行为的科学现状

躯体畸形障碍患者会做出一些适应不良的行为，比如照镜子、过度梳妆打扮、向他人寻求安慰，以及因为自己的外表而回避一些场合。这些适得其反的应对机制或虚假的 "安全行为 "会维持和加重症状，而不是缓解症状。本综述概述了横断面研究、纵向研究、实验研究和治疗研究，强调了这些行为与身体畸形障碍的相关性。此外，文章还指出了目前研究中存在的不足，以及对进一步了解这些行为的作用具有重要意义的未来研究方向。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
