BOPO-PRIATION: Exploring the Effects Of BOPO-PRIATION: Exploring the Effects of The Corporate Adoption of the Body Positivity Movement and Audience Feedback on Women’s Perceptions of the Movement Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kyla Noni Elizabeth Brathwaite Graduate Program in Communication The Ohio State University 2020 Thesis Committee Dr. David DeAndrea, Advisor Dr. Teresa Lynch Copyrighted by Kyla Brathwaite 2020 2 Abstract Our study examined two prominent factors that were thought to counteract the efficacy of body positive images on young women. First, we sought to understand the degree to which the nature of the source (user-generated content or corporate sponsored) of body positive images affected how viewers react to body positive content on Instagram. Second, natural to the social media environment, we examined the degree to which the valence of user generated comments related to the body positive movement can influence how viewers responded to body positive images on Instagram. Four hundred and five adult women were recruited using Cloud Research powered by Turkprime. The results indicate that although participants recognized the commercial intent of corporate sponsored posts, this recognition of commercial persuasion did not negatively affect how participants evaluated the posts or the body positivity movement. Further, the valence of health-related comments (positive or negative) did not substantively influence how participants reacted to the body positive posts on Instagram. The results have implications for the persuasion knowledge model and provide insight for emerging research that seeks to understand the effects of body positive imagery on social media. iii Vita M.A. The Ohio State University, Spring 2020 School of Communication Advisor: Dr. David C.

content is often not representative of all female bodies. In fact, media depictions of women are incredibly homogenous. Western beauty ideals are Eurocentric in nature; the more closely an individual’s features align with features White women predominantly have, the more attractive they are considered by societal standards (Bryant, 2013). Features desired include light skin, straight hair, thin facial features (e.g., nose and lips), and light eyes (Bryant, 2013). In addition, beauty ideals extend to body norms, or physical body characteristics such as able-bodiedness, thinness, shape, and age (Dhruvarajan, 2002; Harrison, 2003; Malkin, Wornian, & Chrisler, 1994). Women featured in the media are typically young and slim in terms of physique (Malkin et al., 1994). In addition, with respect to physique, Western beauty standards tend to put emphasis on women being curvaceously thin (e.g., small waist and an average or large bust; Harrison, 2003). Due to repeated exposure to young, thin, and able-bodied depictions of women in the media, female viewers can develop difficult to obtain beauty ideals (e.g., the thin-ideal). Research has illustrated how narrow beauty standards perpetuated by mass media content can contribute to body image disturbance in women, including increased body dissatisfaction, negative mood, and restrictive eating behavior (Grabe, Ward, & Hyde, 2008). 1 Compounding problems associated with mass media depictions of women, concern exists that female users of newer media such as Instagram are regularly sharing and viewing images that cohere to the same narrow beauty standards (Tiggemann & Zaccardo, 2015). However, some social media users are employing online platforms to further a more inclusive view of feminine beauty. The body positivity (BoPo) movement, organized primarily through social media, seeks to challenge narrow appearance ideals by encouraging acceptance of bodies of any age, shape, size, color, sexuality or ability (Cohen, Fardouly, Newton-John, Toby, & Slater, 2019a; Cwynar-Horta, 2016). Members of the body positivity movement have used social media to amass a community

Body positivity is a combination of positive body image, self-confidence, and body acceptance regardless of size, shape, or weight of the body (Caldeira & Ridder, 2017; Dalley & Vidal, 2013; Halliwell, 2015; Wood-Barcalow, Tylka, & Augustus-Horvath, 2010). This literature review presents an overview of the research conducted on body positivity and storytelling, finding that there are limited interventions currently being used to promote body positivity.

Does Thin Always Sell? The Moderating Role of Thin Ideal Internalization on Advertising Effectiveness James A. Roberts, Baylor University [email protected] Chloe’ Roberts, University of Alabama [email protected] Abstract - Much of the current focus on the use of ultra-thin models in fashion magazines can be attributed to Madison Avenue which still operates under a “Thin Sells” ethos. Research to date, however, has provided equivocal evidence of the efficacy of thin models in advertising (Yu, 2014). The present study’s two related objectives include: (1) determining whether model size has an impact on advertising effectiveness, and (2) if internalization of the thin ideal moderates this relationship.

  • Body Positivity “I Could Have Never Imagined How Much It Would Cost Me to Attempt to Reach the Standard of Today’S Beauty
    Body Positivity “I could have never imagined how much it would cost me to attempt to reach the standard of today’s beauty. —Sadie Roberston, “I Woke Up Like This” Beyoncé Was Right: When It Comes to Beauty, “It’s the Soul That Needs the Surgery” Katrina (not her real name) struggled through middle school and high school. It was a difficult time for her, not simply because she was socially awkward, but also because of how she looked. She rarely felt pretty: She struggled on and off with acne, had braces for a while, and had no idea what to do with her crazy hair. To add insult to injury, she didn’t know how to dress stylishly and would often feel embarrassed about her clothes. Our society puts a heavy burden on people, women in particular, to measure up to certain standards of physical beauty. The body positivity movement has arisen in response to these unattainable ideals. It attempts to redefine beauty and human worth and has made its way from social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter into our mainstream marketing. But is it the answer that all teenagers who struggle to accept themselves desperately long for? Despite the necessity of this movement, or at least something like it, body positivity is complicated and nuanced—and very worth talking about with your teens. How do teens feel about their bodies? In her book, Unashamed: Healing Our Brokenness and Finding Freedom from Shame, Heather Davis Nelson writes, “Shame commonly masquerades as embarrassment, or the nagging sense of ‘not quite good enough.’” This is how Katrina felt, and it’s a feeling that many teens can relate to, especially when it comes to their bodies.

  • Running Head: BODY MASS INDEX and MEDIA IMAGES 1
    Running head: BODY MASS INDEX AND MEDIA IMAGES 1 Body Dissatisfaction: The Effects of Body Mass Index on Reactions to Media Images A Senior Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for graduation with research distinction in Psychology in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University By Lyndsee Cooper The Ohio State University at Mansfield May 2011 Project Advisor: Dr. Philip Mazzocco, Department of Psychology Running head: BODY MASS INDEX AND MEDIA IMAGES 2 Abstract Media images have been shown to affect the way women perceive their selves. The effect body mass index (BMI) has on body dissatisfaction when viewing media images has not been determined. This study used 121 female college students. Participants reported their height and weight before being assigned to one of three image-exposure conditions: moderately-thin female models, ultra-thin female models, or neutral media images. After viewing the images, they then reported their body dissatisfaction. Results indicated increased body dissatisfaction only when participants with moderate BMI viewed thin or ultra-thin models. These findings have implications for advertisement, media literacy programs, and eating disorder preventions. Running head: BODY MASS INDEX AND MEDIA IMAGES 3 Body Dissatisfaction: The Effects of Body Mass Index on Reactions to Media Images Social comparisons are an important part of daily life, and in the age of media, this may be particularly true for women. Myers and Crowther (2009) found that women compare themselves to thin media images just as frequently as they compare themselves to peers who are more relevant. Body satisfaction is an important aspect of the way people live their lives.

  • Perceptual Distortion of Body Size in Females and the Relationship Between BMI, Depression and Body Dissatisfaction
    International Journal of Healing and Caring, 2016, Volume 16, No. 3, p. 1-16. Size Does Matter: Perceptual Distortion of Body Size in Females and the Relationship Between BMI, Depression and Body Dissatisfaction By Peta Stapleton, BA, PGDipPsy, PhD, Assistant Professor, Samantha Farr, MA and Mahima Kalla, PhD Abstract Body dissatisfaction research has primarily focused on either young children or adolescent populations and individuals with clinical eating disorders. The relationship between body dissatisfaction and lifestyle behaviors has been demonstrated, however this link has only been explored in adolescents. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between BMI, depression, anxiety, stress and lifestyle behaviors in levels of body dissatisfaction and perceptual distortion in female adults (N = 121). Depression was found to be a significant predictor of body dissatisfaction, however body dissatisfaction was not affected by BMI, anxiety or stress. Lifestyle behaviors did not significantly predict body dissatisfaction levels. Perceptual distortion was found to exist in a high proportion of females (81.8%). This study suggests that depression is a predictor of body dissatisfaction. These findings will assist in the treatment of body dissatisfaction in females. Key Words: body dissatisfaction, women, depression, perceptual distortion, BMI Background Western women have never been more consciously aware than they are today of society’s expectations and the importance placed on the prescribed thin feminine ideal (e.g., thin, tubular female body) and this is resulting in increased levels of body dissatisfaction (Evans et al., 2013). Negative attitudes towards body shapes that do not fit the ‘ideal’ are communicated throughout high income societies, with the belief that extreme thinness is desirable, beautiful and equated with personal success, popularity and attractiveness (Alves, Regidor, Baraño, Pablo, & Izaga, 2012; Phillips & de Man, 2010; Jaworowska & Bazylak, 2009).
