Most people tend to have some ideal type towards something. The most common idealistic around is body ideal, such as women look up to thin-ideal type and men look up to fit and muscular-ideal type. In reality, women are more into a specific body type (thin-ideal) rather than men, therefore there’s a pressure to fit into a thin-ideal type. The thin-ideal pressure come from society, especially from family, peers, & media that may cause negative effects towards one’s mental health and perspectives. There is body appreciation that might protect someone from social idealistic towards body. Therefore, this research focus on correlation between thin-ideal pressure and body appreciation among young adult women, that both variables are haven’t been researched enough. There are 818 participants who participate on this research through online google form. This research use SATAQ-4 to measure thin-ideal pressure and BAS-2 to measure body appreciation. The result shows that there is a negative significant correlation between thin-ideal pressure and body appreciation in every dimension of thin-ideal pressure with p = 0.00 < 0.05. In this paper, will be discussed furthermore about the correlation between Body Appreciation and every dimensions of Thin-Ideal Pressure.
