Sažetak
The aim of this study was to test the possibility of predicting awareness of physical appearance, life satisfaction and self-esteem based on individual sets of predictors that are closely related to physical activity, awareness of one’s own morphological characteristics, and the use of sports nutrition supplements. People aged 18-56 years participated in the study. The study involved 552 women and 141 men. The results indicate the statistical significance of positive predictors of self-esteem and the amount of physical activity involved to the criterion variable of awareness of one’s physical appearance. Significant positive predictors of life satisfaction were self-esteem, body awareness and the amount of physical activity involved, and a negative predictor was the use of sport supplements. In the final model, significant predictors of self-esteem were found to be self-esteem, self-awareness, and life satisfaction, all positively related to self-esteem.
