Brief Summary
|
The media’s unrealistic ideals are influencing how people perceive their bodies. The body’s perception is also influenced by one’s eating patterns, social support, perceptions of stressful events, and general quality of life.A cross-sectional study will be conducted on 250 undergraduate paramedical students at Tertiary Care Hospital, Rural Wardha using the convenience sampling technique. Students on the day of the visit who will give written informed consent to participate in the study will be included. We will provide instructions to students to fill out a self-administer questionnaire that consists of Section A - Sociodemographic information, Section B- Body Image Perception, Section C - the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) to assess eating attitudes, and Section D -Socio-Cultural Attitude Towards Appearance Questionnaire 3 (SATAQ-3) scale for assessment of the impact of social media on body image perception.
