Adolescent girls and young women may be influenced by social media settings to participate in social comparison, leading to feelings of inadequacy and body dissatisfaction.

From this research, it was shown that most young girls think that in Pakistani culture, certain body types are marketed on Instagram and by Instagram influencers.
