Predictive Study

This paper focuses on testing hypothesized psychosocial predictors factors (general unconditional acceptance, body acceptance by others, body function appreciation) for positive body image among 812 female students aged between 18 and 35 years. Path analysis procedures contained in the Mplus Version 7 program were used to evaluate the positive body image model. The positive body image model indicated that greater perceived body acceptance by others was linked to greater body function appreciation which in turn was linked to higher positive body image. Perceived body image acceptance by others was directly related to higher positive body image. General unconditional acceptance did not lead to female students greater body function appreciation. The findings revealed some important positive body image predicting factors, and these results can be used to improve positive body image interventions.

Body Acceptance

The Internet and especially social networking sites provide potent contexts for the formation of individuals’ views of their bodies and appearance. So far, however, research has almost exclusively focused on the negative aspects of these experiences. This chapter proposes that the online context can also be an influential context for positive body-related experiences. In order to make the online context a more positive arena, appearance-related cyberbullying needs to be stopped. Therefore, this chapter starts with a review of appearance-related cyberbullying and elaborates on what can be done about this growing problem. The second part concerns the positive aspects of body image–defining experiences online, such as body acceptance and body activism movements, which may promote positive body image and embodiment. How the online context may constitute an arena for exploration of alternative ideals, resistant communications, and body activism is discussed.

Interpersonal Factor

This chapter sets out to review the research and theory on body acceptance by significant others as an interpersonal factor promoting positive body image. Overall, the review finds that supportive and accepting relationships with family, friends, and romantic partners are critical to women’s positive body image throughout the life span and across many different contexts. This has significant implications not only for interventions aimed at promoting positive body image but also for those aimed at preventing or treating negative body image. Nevertheless, more sophisticated longitudinal and experimental research strategies are required to detail the processes underlying the link from the perception of body acceptance by others to one’s own positive body image.

Disorder Prevention

Cognitive dissonance–based interventions (CDIs) emerge in meta-analyses as the most effective selective eating disorder prevention and body acceptance programs. This chapter examines whether CDIs can also be used to promote aspects of positive body image and embodiment. Theoretical links between CDI content and positive body image are discussed. Also, the small body of empirical research that has evaluated the impact of CDI on aspects of positive body image is reviewed. The chapter argues that CDI could offer a useful tool to promote positive body image. Some revisions may be beneficial. However, it is critical that changes are evaluated in randomized controlled trials to ensure that the effectiveness of CDIs is not compromised by these adaptations.

Peer Environment

Peers represent important transmitters of weight- and body-related norms and ideals. Although much research exists on peer processes that disrupt girls’ and women’s connection to their bodies, this chapter examines the literature specifically pertaining to protective peer influences that support girls and women in distancing from appearance norms and facilitate enhanced connection with their bodies. In this regard, the chapter reviews three domains of protective influences that exist within the peer environment and contribute to positive body image and embodiment. First are peer norms related to (a) body acceptance, (b) distancing from appearance-based comments and comparisons, and (c) alternative norms fostering resiliency from peer appearance-based pressure. Second are interventions designed to support peer groups in resisting and protecting against teasing and harassment. The final domain is initiatives that facilitate activism and empowerment as positive determinants to social power within peer groups. The chapter concludes with a discussion of implications for clinical and prevention initiatives.

Preliminary Support

This study evaluated the impact on young women’s body satisfaction of an advertising campaign: Aerie Real, which included images of models who were not digitally modified. In total, 200 female students were randomly allocated to view either Aerie Real images or digitally modified images from previous campaigns. In the total sample, no condition differences appeared. However, participants with high appearance comparison reported a smaller decrease in body satisfaction after viewing the Aerie Real images as compared to those viewing previous images ( p = .003). Findings provide preliminary support for the Aerie Real campaign as less deleterious form of media for body image.
