The purpose of this research study was to examine the relationship between the quality of relationships with peers and body dissatisfaction in adolescent women from a private school in Lima (Peru). The participants were 191 female adolescents between 13 and 17 years old (M = 14.95, SD = 1.16). The Quality of Relationships Inventory (QRI) was used to measure the quality of peer relationships and two instruments were used to measure body dissatisfaction: Contour Drawing Rating Scale (CDRS) and a single item measure of body image. The results showed a negative but low correlation between the support dimension and body dissatisfaction (r = -.16, p <.05). Likewise, a positive, significant, and moderate correlation was found between body dissatisfaction and the body mass index (BMI) of participants (r = .36, p <.01).
