Predictors of change in body satisfaction, depressed mood, anxiety and anger, were examined following exposure to idealized female advertising images in Grades 7 and 10 girls. Stable body dissatisfaction, physical appearance comparison tendency, internalization of thin ideal, self-esteem, depression, identity confusion and body mass index (BMI) were assessed. One week later, participants viewed magazine images, before and after which they completed assessments of state body satisfaction, state depression, state anxiety and state anger. Participants were randomly allocated to view either images of idealized females (experimental condition) or fashion accessories (control condition). For both grades, there was a significant decrease in state body satisfaction and a significant increase in state depression attributable to viewing the female images. In Grade 7 girls in the experimental condition, decrease in state body satisfaction was predicted by stable body dissatisfaction and BMI, while significant predictors of decreases in the measures of negative affect included internalization of the thin-ideal and appearance comparison. In Grade 10 girls, reduction in state body satisfaction and increase in state depression was predicted by internalization of the thin-ideal, appearance comparison and stable body dissatisfaction. These findings indicate the importance of individual differences in short-term reaction to viewing idealized media images.
研究了7年级和10年级女生在接触理想化女性广告形象后,身体满意度、抑郁情绪、焦虑和愤怒变化的预测因素。评估了稳定的身体不满、外貌比较倾向、瘦理想内化、自尊、抑郁、身份认同困惑和体重指数(BMI)。一周后,参与者观看杂志图片,观看前后分别完成对身体状态满意度、抑郁状态、焦虑状态和愤怒状态的评估。参与者被随机分配观看理想化女性图片(实验组)或时尚配饰图片(对照组)。对于两个年级,观看女性图片导致身体状态满意度显著下降,抑郁状态显著增加。在实验组的7年级女生中,稳定的身体不满和BMI可预测身体状态满意度的下降,而瘦理想内化和外貌比较是负面影响测量指标下降的显著预测因素。在10年级女生中,瘦理想内化、外貌比较和稳定的身体不满可预测身体状态满意度的降低和抑郁状态的增加。这些发现表明个体差异在观看理想化媒体形象的短期反应中的重要性。
