As part of the study researchers analysed 59 young women aged 12 to 21 years, who all had breast which differed by at least one bra cup size. About 40 per cent of girls also had tuberous breast deformity, a condition in which the breasts don't develop normally.

研究中，研究者选取59名年龄在12到21岁之间的少女作为样本，她们的乳房之间至少相差一个罩杯。据分析，约40%少女患有结节性乳房畸形，这会导致乳房不能正常发育。

Researchers carried out tests to ascertain how well the girls functioned psychologically and socially, as well as carrying out tests to score their health-related quality of life. Similar tests were carried out on a group of girls without breast asymmetry, and in girls with macromastia – a condition in which the breasts are abnormally enlarged.

研究者还对这59名少女进行了类似测试，以确认其心理状况、社交状况，并进行了其他测试来确定与健康相关的其他生活指标质量。

They found several aspects of mental health and wellbeing were lower for girls with different-sized breasts, compared to those with 'normal' breasts. They also had significantly lower scores for emotional wellbeing and self-esteem, after researchers adjusted for differences in body weight.

他们发现，与其他乳房尺寸正常的少女相比，乳房尺寸异常的少女心理健康程度较低、幸福感较少。且她们在情绪、自信心等方面的得分也明显低很多。
