Weight-loss journeys are frequently depicted in social media attempting to inspire others to achieve their health goals. In a 3 x 2 experimental design, this thesis examines how social media posts about weight-loss goals achieved, in progress, or unattained, and that mention or do not mention struggle in the pursuit, affect self-efficacy, social comparison, target perceptions, hope and, in turn, intention to model the author's health behaviors. Mixed support arose for the predicted effects of social comparison and how struggle expressed in a weight-loss narrative and personal struggle interact to impact self-efficacy to perform modeled strategies. The findings support Social Cognitive Theory's main tenet that an individual's self-efficacy is central to whether or not a modeled behavior is emulated. The results suggest personal struggle with a weight-loss helps determine whether an individual will perceive similarity with and feel hopefulness in response to weight-loss narratives. Implications for health promotion are discussed.
