The Correlation Between Body Image and Self-esteem in Adolescent

Abstract

This study investigates the correlation between body image and self-esteem among adolescents. Previous research has shown that dissatisfaction with the limb can have a direct impact on a person’s self-esteem issues. Our primary hypothesis in the research suggested that actual body data influences an individual’s self-evaluation. However, we were not able to prove this conjecture completely because the second hypothesis turned out to be the null hypothesis. However, it is reassuring to note that our main hypothesis succeeded, and, therefore, we can prove the relationship that exists between Body Image Satisfaction Scale (BISS) scores and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) scores. With a range of statistical tools, such as SPSS and mapping methods, potential relationships can be analyzed. Together with the theoretical and experimental presentations in the past literature. We have successfully demonstrated that there is a positive correlation between body image and self-esteem. This experimental finding can also have some implications for society.
