Resumen
The objective of this research was to associate and correlate the time of confinement and physical activity (PA) with body image (BI) of Chilean population in pandemic. The study was quantitative descriptive, correlational and 1,038 people participated, of which 426 were men, 609 women and 3 people did not express gender. A self-administered survey was used to collect general data and the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) was used to study the levels of concern about HF. It was found that the level of confinement and time of confinement did not correlate with the level of the BSQ scale. The level of confinement does correlate with the sum of the BSQ scale, with low statistical strength. The days of the week and PA time do correlate (p=< 0.01) with the level and sum of the BSQ scale. It is concluded that there is a correlation between the weekly PA time and the BSQ level; those who were more concerned about their BI have low levels of PA and those who have a higher level of PA do not have high levels of concern about their HF.
