• Exposure to Sexually Objectifying Media and Body Self-Perceptions among College Women: An Examination of the Selective Exposure Hypothesis and the Role of Moderating Variables (2006, background): “However, most of these studies have shown that such programs are not very effective in reducing body dissatisfaction (Irving et al., 1998; McVey & Davis, 2002 ), eating problems (Killen et al., 1993), or the desirability of media that depict the thin ideal (Irving & Berel, 2001).”
• The role of the media in body image concerns among women: a meta-analysis of experimental and correlational studies. (2008, background): “…to offer, several studies have found limited evidence of the effectiveness of media literacy, suggesting that the pervasiveness of the media’s promotion of the thin ideal is far greater than the proactive messages offered in one-time interventions (e.g., Irving & Berel, 2001; McVey & Davis, 2002).”
