The consequences more frequently pointed out are body dissatisfaction and low self-esteem, besides the increased risks of depression and eating disorders (Brechan & Kvalem, 2015; Sohn, 2009; Holmström, 2004; Agliata & Tantleff-Dunn, 2004; Nezlek, 1999; Botta, 1995; Newman & Dodd, 1995; among others). Because this is a complex phenomenon, we believe that a multitude of converging influences coexists. As underlined by Karazsia et al. (2013), it is likely that this phenomenon has a ‘constellation of variables’ moderating the relationship between the influence of society and body dissatisfaction.engPersuasionAdvertisingYoung peopleBody image satisfactionThe silent persuasion of fashion advertisingbook part
