双语:你对自己的形状满意吗?
If you thought that only women on the heavier side felt bad about their bodies after being bombarded with images of stick thin models, well then you better think again, for the affliction is common to all members of the fairer IT.
And, it doesn't take a week or a month or even a year for those negative feelings to set in, but only three minutes, a new University of Missouri-Columbia study has found.
"Surprisingly, we found that weight was not a factor. Viewing these pictures was just bad for everyone," said Laurie Mintz, associate professor in the MU College of Education.
"It had been thought that women who are heavier feel worse than a thinner woman after viewing pictures of the thin ideal in the mass media. The study results do not support that theory."
As a part of the study the researchers measured how 81 women felt about themselves, from their body weight to their hair, and then exposed some of them to neutral images, while others viewed models in magazine ads for one to three minutes.
The women were asked to evaluate themselves after seeing the images, and in all cases, the women who viewed the models reported a drop in their level of satisfaction with their own bodies.
The study suggests that the majority of women would benefit from social interventions aimed at decreasing the effects of the media.
The researchers now state that unlike past interventions that have targeted specific groups of women, such as those with pre-existing eating and body-image concerns, this study suggests that reducing the acceptance of mass media model images and trying to stop the social comparison process is important for helping all women.
"Most women do not go to a counselor for advice; they look to Seventeen or Glamor magazine instead. These unrealistic images of women, who are often airbrushed or partially computer generated, have a detrimental impact on women and how they feel about themselves," Mintz said.

如果你以为只要较胖的女性看到纤瘦模特的笼统后才会年夜受“安慰”,那最好照旧再想想,因为几乎全部女性都会因此而“烦末路”。
并且,密苏里-哥伦比亚年夜学的一项最新钻研发明,这种悲不雅观表情不是一周、一个月乃至一年之后才会发作,只需要三分钟。
密苏里-哥伦比亚年夜学教诲学院的副传授劳里•敏兹说:“令人惊讶的是,我们发明体重并不是一个影响身分,每个女性看到这些照片后都会发作悲不雅观表情。”
“我们正本以为,较胖的女性看到媒体上的纤瘦模特照后会比瘦一些的女性忧郁。但钻研得出的功效却并非如斯。”
钻研人员首先让81个女性对自己的体重、头发等身段部位举行评价,然后让其中的一些人看较为平常的照片,让另一部分人用一至三分钟看杂志中的模特照。
之后,钻研人员让这些女性再次举行自我评价,功效发明,全部看了模特照的女性对自己形状的满意度几乎都有所下降。
钻研表明,低落媒体效应的社会干涉干涉能让年夜年夜都女性受益。
钻研人员称,过往的社会干涉干涉重要针对的是那些存在饮食和形状等题目的特别女性群体,而现在的这项钻研表明,低落媒体中模特笼统的接受度以及防止社会比较关于全部女性来说很重要。
敏兹说:“年夜都女性不向咨询师举行咨询,而是看《17岁》或《魅力》等此类的杂志。这些不理想的女性笼统每每都经由了(Photoshop中)喷枪工具的处理或部分由电脑生成,关于女性及女性的自我笼统评价会发作不良影响。”
