Introduction

Social media has become an integral part of our daily lives, with billions of people around the world using platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat to connect with others, share content, and keep up with the latest trends. While social media can have many positive effects, such as facilitating communication and fostering social connections, there is growing concern about its impact on body image perception.

The portrayal of idealized and often unrealistic beauty standards on social media can lead to feelings of inadequacy, low self-esteem, and poor body image among users, particularly young people. This has led to a rising number of studies examining the relationship between social media use and body image perception, with conflicting findings on the extent of this impact.

This thesis aims to contribute to the existing body of literature by exploring the impact of social media on body image perception. By examining the various factors at play, such as the type of social media content consumed, the frequency of use, and individual characteristics, this research seeks to provide a more nuanced understanding of this complex relationship.
