Body image and the media: the media's influence on body image
Plan BMedia images of the unattainable thin body can be found almost anywhere. These media images are seen on billboards, magazines, in commercials and in ads. There has been continual interest in women’s body image throughout the years. Women’s self-esteem, eating patterns and how these two concepts are affected by what a women sees in the media have been researched. This line of research is important because discovering the link between poor body image and the media’s portrayal of women could allow for success interventions to be evaluated and implemented. An intervention could lead to fewer cases of anorexia and bulimia and could lead to increased self-esteem and a more positive body image amongst women. The purpose of this study was to substantiate the media’s influence on body image. Forty-three University of Wisconsin Stout undergraduate students voluntarily participated in the study. The control subjects participated by filling out the Body Image States Scales (BISS). The experimental subjects viewed 120-second power point presentation showing media images of women followed by completion of the BISS. The BISS consists of six questions, rated on a likert type scale that inquires about the subject’s feelings regarding their physical appearance at a particular moment in time. Data analysis using independent sample t-tests was used in this study. Analysis suggested that individuals who viewed the media images of women felt less physically attractive than the individuals who where not exposed to the media presentation. Also, individuals who viewed the media presentation felt worse about their looks than those individuals who did not view the media presentation. Additional findings suggested that overall the two groups’ satisfaction with their body, looks and attractiveness were not found to be significantly different. The four questions that did not reveal significant findings dealt with more specific aspects of body image. For example, body shape, size and weight were a few of the specific aspects that were questioned. In the future, replication of this research with a wider pool of subjects perhaps internationally, using a pre-test post-test design, or exposing the experimental group to the thin ideal for a longer period of time is recommended
