Abstract

Bu derleme, Thinspiration (Zayıflık özentisi), Fitspiration (Spor özentisi), Beden Algı Bozukluğu (BAD), Kas Disomorfisi (KD) ve Görünüm ve Performansı Artırıcı İlaçlar (GPAİ) gibi konuları, toplumsal ve zihinsel sağlık üzerindeki etkileriyle ele almaktadır. Thinspiration ve Fitspiration, dijital kültürün ürünü olarak, gerçek dışı güzellik ve spor standartları teşvik ederek psikolojik sıkıntılara neden olmaktadır. BAD ve KD, kişilerin zihinsel refahını derinden etkileyen zihinsel sağlık sorunlarıdır. GPAİ kullanımı ise sağlık ve etik sorunlar yaratmaktadır. Bu derleme, söz konusu olguların psikolojik ve sosyokültürel yönlerini, medya ve sağlık endüstrisinin rollerini ve etik meselelerini incelemekte; tartışmalar, eleştiriler ve müdahale yöntemlerini sunmaktadır. Toplumsal değişiklik gerekliliğine vurgu yaparak, daha sağlıklı vücut imajı algıları ve uygulamalarını teşvik etmek için eğitim ve politika gelişimine dikkat çekmektedir.

Body Image in The Digital Era: Thinspiration, Fitspiration, And Related Disorders

Abstract

This review explores the interconnected issues of Thinspiration, Fitspiration, Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), Muscle Dysmorphia (MD), and Appearance and Performance Enhancing Drugs (APEDs), highlighting their impact on society and mental health. Thinspiration and Fitspiration, products of digital culture, promote unrealistic beauty and fitness standards, leading to psychological distress. BDD and MD involve an obsessive focus on perceived physical flaws, deeply affecting mental well-being. APED use, a response to societal body image pressures, raises health and ethical concerns. The review analyzes the psychological and sociocultural factors driving these phenomena, the role of media and the health and fitness industry in reinforcing or challenging these norms, and discusses the ethical aspects of health and fitness marketing. Controversies, criticisms, and intervention strategies are presented, advocating for a more inclusive approach to body image. The review calls for societal change, emphasizing education, policy development, and strategies for healthier body image perceptions.
