Summary
Participation in non-sexual nude activities can lead to improved body image, self-esteem, and life satisfaction for individuals predisposed to such activities, and may also bring about positive changes for those who are not predisposed. The study highlights the prevalence of negative body image and its impact on mental health, emphasizing the potential for nudity-based interventions to meaningfully improve body image and related outcomes, even among non-nudists.
