  • Summary

    The 8-item Drive for Muscularity Attitudes Questionnaire (DMAQ; Morrison et al., 2004) assesses men’s desire to achieve a muscular physique, which is characterized by broad shoulders, a well-developed chest and arms, and a narrow waist. The DMAQ can be administered online or in-person to adolescents and adults who identify as male and is free to use. This chapter first discusses the development of the DMAQ and then provides evidence of its psychometrics. More specifically, the DMAQ has a unidimensional factor structure within exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. Internal consistency reliability, test-retest reliability, concurrent validity, and convergent validity support the use of the DMAQ. Next, this chapter provides the DMAQ items in their entirety, instructions for administration and scoring, and the item response scale. Links to available translations are included. Logistics of use, such as permissions, copyright, and contact information, are available for readers.
