RECODE BIQA1 BIQA2 BIQA3 BIQA4 BIQA5 BIQA6 BIQA7 BIQA8 BIQA9 BIQA10 BIQA11(0 = -1). COMPUTE BIQAXB1 = (BIQA1*BIQB1). COMPUTE BIQAXB2 = (BIQA2*BIQB2). COMPUTE BIQAXB3 = (BIQA3*BIQB3). [ETC. FOR ALL 11 BIQ CROSS-PRODUCTS] COMPUTE BIQSCORE = MEAN(BIQAXB1 TO BIQAXB11).

The potential range of these composite BIQ scores is: -3 (for very important congruence across all physical attributes) to +9 (for very important and maximum discrepancies across all physical attributes). Thus, higher scores reflect greater selfideal disparity with strongly held physical ideals.
