Research Abstract |
The present study examined the psychological mechanism underling drive for thinness. Various scales measuring social comparison of body size were administered to female adolescents. Consistently in several studies, the relationship between comparison with same-sex peers and drive for thinness was mediated by thin-ideal internalization. Furthermore, drive for thinness among female adolescents was influenced by comparisons with same-sex peers more than the closest same-sex friend, their mother, or the elder sister. Also, the global comparison of body size with that of same-sex peers represented face-part comparison. The significance of this research was discussed from the point of view of face phenomenology.
