Abstract
<br><strong>Introduction: </strong>This study examined the relationship between dissatisfaction with cutaneous body image and insomnia symptoms, incorporating the mediating role of monitoring for signs of poor-sleep on awakening and throughout the day.</br> <br><strong>Methods: </strong>Two hundred twenty-one participants completed The Insomnia Severity Index, Cutaneous Body Image Scale, and subscales of the Sleep Associated Monitoring Index.</br> <br><strong>Results: </strong>The results demonstrated that insomnia symptoms were significantly associated with a greater dissatisfaction with cutaneous body image. Moreover, this relationship was partially mediated by sleep associated monitoring on awakening, but not throughout the day.</br> <br><strong>Conclusions: </strong>These findings provide further understanding of the potential mechanisms underlying negative self-perceptions of physical appearance in insomnia.</br>
