Background. Body image can be associated with doing sport and other physical activity. Moreover, both body image and physical activity are related with shaping the self-image. The aim of the study was to compare the relationships between the body image and physical activity in two groups of students: attending high school and university. Material and methods. The study sample consisted of 49 students from a high school in Szczecin and 60 students of the University of Szczecin. The body image was determined using the Body Esteem Scale developed by Franzoi and Shields and adapted to Polish by Lipowski and Lipowska. To measure the physical activity we used a self-made Physical Activity Questionnaire. Results. There are some correlations between body image and physical activity in the research sample. Some differences between students from high school and university also occurred. Conclusions. The process of shaping the body image proceeds gradually. The results of the study should be considered as an introduction to further research.
