The concept of body image was defined as a mental representation of the human body, which is usually unconscious and have cognitive, affective and behavioural aspects. Body image is a part of the person's identity. The subjects of this study were 150 students of five different universities in Warsaw (30 persons from each university) in the age between 18 and 26 years, such as the University of Warsaw, the Warsaw University of Technology, the Medical University of Warsaw, the Warsaw School of Economics and the Academy of Fine Arts. The subjects filled in The Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire - (MBSRQ) of Thomas F. Cash and The Beck Depression Inventory -Second Edition - (BDI-II) of Aaron T. Beck. The obtained results show that depression in young adults is connected with the way of experiencing their body (on various dimensions of their body image).
