Instructions and scoring
The printable questionnaire reproduces the Appendix’s five items and seven response anchors verbatim. The Appendix supplies no respondent directions, so none have been added.
Scoring quotation from the article
This quotation describes the parent 12-item BI-AAQ in the Methods section (manuscript p. 13; PDF page 14), not an independently stated five-item aggregation rule:
“The 12 items were rated on a scale ranging from 1 (never true) to 7 (always true). All items were reverse-coded so that higher scores reflected higher levels of body image flexibility.”
The article does not provide a separate BI-AAQ-5 sum-versus-mean formula, missing-response rule or cutoff. None has been invented.
Item source: Appendix, “BI-AAQ-5”, manuscript p. 40 (PDF page 41 of 45; no table number). The response scale is on the same page. Only layout and line wrapping have changed.
