INTRODUCTION
Body image (BI) is a psychological experience in which a person compares her physical appearance to a mental representation of herself and makes judgments. (W. R. da Silva et al., 2020). The person's perception of his or her physical self is referred to as body image (Taha et al., 2011) Body image satisfaction is the individuals’ perceptions of their physical appearance and the feelings or thoughts resulting from these perceptions. (Vannucci.A &Ohannessian.CH, 2017 ,Dotse & Asumeng, 2014) University students have been proven to be susceptible to various body image changes. According to studies, university students have a significant level of body dissatisfaction and engage in unhealthy body weight maintenance behaviors. Furthermore, university students are thought to be at risk for melancholy, low self-esteem, poor health, interpersonal problems, and suicide ideation, and eating and body dysmorphic disorders. . (R. C. P. C. da Silva et al., 2021). Individuals' overall subjective emotional evaluation of their own value is referred to as self-esteem. Individuals with low self-esteem are more susceptible to body pressures and are more prone to become dissatisfied with their bodies over time(Ahadzadeh et al., 2018). Body image satisfaction can be negatively affected by low self-esteem, while improving self-esteem can improve people's self-esteem. Anxiety and sadness are both exacerbated when a person has low self-esteem (Nweke & Jarrar, 2019). Both good and negative views toward one's own personality are classified as Self-esteem and it is subjective because it is based on one's own psychology and emotional state on one's own value. (Ahmat et al., 2018) As a social perception of self, People’s total body image has an impact on their emotions, feelings, self-worth, and recognition. Even as they get older, women are more concerned with their body shape and prefer slimmer figures than men. This is a clear sign that females have a sense of body image that influences their self-worth and esteem, as well as causing them to be identified at a young age. (El-emary & Zaki, 2018). Adolescents are preoccupied with their bodies, and they regard their bodies as fundamental to their self_concept. The findings revealed a positive relationship between body image and self_esteem; males were more satisfied with their body image, resulting in higher Self_esteem than females; females, on the other hand, were more affected by others' opinions about their body, weight, height, and society's standards of beauty and attraction (Qaisy, 2016). Objectives of the Study: the study aims to (1)assessing the level of body image and self-esteem among nursing female collegians. (2) identify the relationship between the body image and self-esteem among nursing female collegians. (3) find-out the relationship between the body Image, Self-Esteem and their socio-demographic. METHOD A descriptive correlational design was conducted On A non-probability (Convenient) sample of 110 female students their age ranges between 18 and 30 years which were selected from University of Baghdad collage of Nursing to assess body image and self-esteem among the target sample, and to find the relationship between the variables among them and the relationship between body image and self-esteem with a number of demographic variables such as age, social status, level of study, place of residence, environment in which the student lives, living income and number of family members And the sequence of the student between the brothers and the educational level of the father and the mother. The research tool used in this study consists of the personal data part of the participating students and the body image scale contains (27) items that is developed by Dr.Samia Mohamad (2014) It is located in two dimensions and Self-esteem Scale this part contain (10) items. This scale adopted from (Rosenberg,1965). The reliability of the instrument was determined through the computation of Alpha Cronbach’s test (Alpha Correlation Coefficient); internal consistency method was used for determining the reliability. The Alpha Correlation Coefficient was applied to determine the reliability of the present study instrument by application of Statistical Package for Social Science Program (IBM SPSS) version 24.0. Data analysis was employed through the application of descriptive and inferential statistical approaches, which were performed through the computation of the following: frequencies, percentage, means of scores, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation coefficient.
