Abstract

Everyone has a diverse evaluation of body image. Positive body image makes adolescents have good self-confidence and appreciate their strengths. Adolescents use social media to form an ideal image of their bodies. Activities in using Instagram are used by adolescents to build their presentations. This study aims to determine the relationship between the use of Instagram activities on adolescent body image. The subjects used in this study were 100 students aged 16–19 years. Measuring instruments used in this study are the Body Image States Scale (BISS) and the scale of Instagram Use Activities. The data were analyzed using a regression test with a bootstrapping path. The results showed that the activity of using Instagram is not related to adolescent body image (F=0.742).
