N2  - Nowadays, more and more adolescents surf the internet and represent themselves on the internet. However, there has been no satisfactory measure of such concerns. A self-report instrument, the Scale of Adolescents' Online Self-Presentation has therefore been developed. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses of large samples (N=597) of adolescents established the reliability and validity of the instrument, and a two-factor structure was identified, including perceptions of online body decoration and online body decoration behaviors. The results indicated that the Scale of Adolescents' Online Self-Presentation has trustworthy reliability and validity. Furthermore, the result of using the SAOSP in adolescents has been discussed.<p />
