Özet: The purpose of the study is to identify the level of stress among adolescents regarding body image and the strategies that they use to cope with it. 282 adolescents in 10th and 11th grade answered three questionnaires: the Adolescent Stress Questionnaire, the Body Image Coping Strategies Inventory and the Body Esteem Scale for Adolescents and Adults. In the order of results, factors generating stress in adolescents are money pressure, uncertain future, school/leisure conflicts, school performance, assuming adult responsibilities, school attendance, romantic relationships, home life, interactions with teachers and peer pressure. Girls are more stressed by home life, peer pressure, an uncertain future, money pressure and adult responsibilities, while boys by school attendance. The most frequently used coping mechanism is positive rational acceptance. The level of stress among adolescents correlates with the level of satisfaction regarding the body image.
