The objective of this study was to determine which variable (mother, father, peers, or media) has the greatest positive and negative influence on both males and females. Results of this study may aid in understanding which of these variables is most influential and for which gender. Fourteen females and seven males were surveyed at Carbondale Middle School and Unity Point School over a one week period of time. Parental consent as well as child assent was obtained before survey was administered. The hypothesis stated parents would have the greatest positive influence on both genders, and media would have the greatest negative influence on both genders. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Both genders reported mothers to be the largest positive influence. Males reported their peers to be the largest negative influence, and females reported the media to be the greatest negative influence. Results from this research should be used by schools, and other professionals in the health education system to create programs that address concerns regarding body image and the influencing factors on body image for adolescent males and females.
