标题:USE OF INSTAGRAM, BODY IMAGE SATISFACTION AND SELF ESTEEM IN YOUNG WOMEN // USO DO INSTAGRAM, SATISFAÇÃO DA IMAGEM CORPORAL E AUTOESTIMA EM MULHERES JOVENS
摘要:The aim was to assess the impact of Instagram's usage on young women's satisfaction with their body image and self-esteem. This is a quantitative cross-sectional study. A total of 329 women using Instagram, aged 18-24, answered this online survey. The data collection was through the RedCap platform. The research was published on social networks and was requested that other people would share on theirs. The method used was a non-probabilistic sample in order to reach as many participants as possible. The results showed that those who reported access to inspirational fitness content most frequently and compared themselves to other users showed decreased body satisfaction and self-esteem. Those who spend more than 2 hours per day on Instagram increased subjective feelings of salience and body fat perception.
