This study focuses on the drive for thinness among the visitors of various health-oriented websites and online platforms because neither has yet been sufficiently studied in this context. Specifically, this study aims to bring more insight to the risk factors which can increase the drive for thinness in the users of these websites. We… Show more

“…We identified ten studies (n = 3572) reporting data in the drive for thinness domain (Butkowski et al, 2019; Hendrickse et al, 2017; Hummel and Smith, 2015; Kim and Chock, 2015; Kvardova et al, 2020; Levinson et al, 2017; Meier and Gray, 2014; Simpson and Mazzeo, 2017; Tao, 2013; Tiggemann and Miller, 2010). In performing meta-analysis for the drive for thinness domain, we removed one of the studies that was highly influential (reporting an extremely positive Pearson correlation r = 0.51, Cook’s d > 2 S.D.…”

“…In performing meta-analysis for the drive for thinness domain, we removed one of the studies that was highly influential (reporting an extremely positive Pearson correlation r = 0.51, Cook’s d > 2 S.D. above mean of the cohort of studies, n = 445) and of weak quality (Kvardova et al, 2020). Moreover, this study used ‘web content internalization’ which was a quite dissimilar and appearance oriented PUI metric, which may explain the reported association.…”
