Developmental Context

This chapter provides an overview to The Development of Relational Aggression. It focusses on one type of nonphysical aggression—namely, relational aggression. Relational aggression is defined as behavior that is intended to harm another’s relationships or feelings of inclusion in a group. Unlike physical aggression, the scars of relational aggression are more difficult to see. However, victims (and aggressors) may experience strong and long-lasting consequences, including reduced self-esteem, loneliness, substance use, eating pathology, depression, and anxiety. The field of relational, indirect, and social aggression is introduced in this chapter and the need for research on these topics is delineated. Each chapter in the volume is briefly described and the major points summarized. Additionally, this chapter synthesizes the book as a whole and describes the need to examine these behaviors in a developmental context.

Self Objectification

Penampilan fisik merupakan hal yang penting bagi perempuan, karena perempuan akan merasa sukses sebagai perempuan yang ideal apabila ia dapat menampilkan tubuh yang cantik. Adanya self objectification memungkinkan terjadinya pementingan terhadap aspek fisik yang tampak dibandingkan aspek kompetensi fisik yang tidak tampak dalam menentukan kualitas tubuh seseorang.� Penyematan kata cantik bisa menjadi suatu hal yang merendahkan perempuan karena tidak menghargai perempuan dalam kapasitas yang sebenarnya, melainkan hanya menghargai kecantikan yang dimilikinya bukan karena prestasi, pekerjaan, ataupun pemikirannya. Hal ini dapat menimbulkan diskriminasi terhadap perempuan dikarenakan perbedaan gender (sexism). Terjadinya self objectification disebabkan oleh rendahnya kepuasan terhadap kondisi fisik serta kurang memiliki perasaan berharga (self esteem) akan penampilan fisik yang dimilikinya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuktikan bahwa sexism dan self esteem mempengaruhi self objectification. Subjek dalam penelitian ini ialah mahasiswi Universitas Islam Negeri Sunan Ampel Surabaya sebanyak 299 orang. Pengukuran yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini ialah skala The Objectified Body Consciousness Scale untuk mengukur self objectification, The Ambivalent Sexism Inventory untuk mengukur sexism, dan Multidimensional Self Esteem Inventory untuk mengukur self esteem. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sexism baik hostile sexism maupun benevolent sexism memiliki pengaruh positif yang signifikan terhadap terjadinya self objectification. Sedangkan self esteem tidak memiliki pengaruh positif yang signifikan terhadap self objectification

Self Objectification

Previous research has illustrated the negative psychological consequences of female body objectification. The present study explores how female body objectification may serve as a defense against unconscious existential fears. Drawing from terror management theory, an experiment was designed to test the potential functionality of female body objectification. Men and women were primed to think about either their own mortality or an aversive control topic, and levels of body objectification were then assessed for both self- and other (women)-objectification. Findings supported the hypothesis that priming mortality would increase both self- and other-objectification among women, and self-objectification among those who derive self-esteem from their body. Implications for this research are discussed.

Shape And Size

Using objectification theory (Fredrickson & Roberts, 1997), this study tested the interaction between self-objectification, appearance evaluation, and self-esteem in predicting body satisfaction and mood states. Participants (N = 93) were physically active female university students. State self-objectification was manipulated by participants wearing tight revealing exercise attire (experimental condition) or baggy exercise clothes (control condition). Significant interactions emerged predicting depression, anger, fatness, and satisfaction with body shape and size. For participants in the self-objectification condition who had low (as opposed to high) appearance evaluation, low self-esteem was associated with high depression, anger, and fatness and low satisfaction with body shape and size. In contrast, for participants with high self-esteem, these mood and body satisfaction states were more favorable irrespective of their levels of appearance evaluation. For female exercisers, self-esteem-enhancing strategies may protect against some of the negative outcomes of self-objectification.

Objectification theory has provided a useful framework for the study of women’s sexual outcomes. However, little research has been conducted on the role of self-objectification in predicting sexual satisfaction. We conducted a replication of Calogero and Thompson (2009a), which reported a direct relationship between self-surveillance and sexual satisfaction, and expanded upon their work. We tested four path analysis models: Calogero and Thompson’s reported and hypothesized models, and two previously untested models, all containing our variables of interest (media internalization, self-surveillance, body shame, sexual self-esteem, and sexual satisfaction). Each model was tested with the full sample (N = 349) and a restricted sample (N = 127) that met Calogero and Thompson’s relationship status and sexual frequency inclusion criteria, and with and without BMI covaried. Both samples consisted of U.S. college women recruited in Fall 2019, with a mean age of M = 19.68 in the restricted sample. Results showed good fit for all tested models but failed to replicate the direct pathway between self-surveillance and sexual satisfaction. Instead, our models supported an indirect effect of self-surveillance on sexual satisfaction through body shame and sexual self-esteem. Findings support the role of sociocultural channels in influencing college women’s body image and sexual experiences.
