Upon analysis of the descriptive statistics pertaining to the dimensions of body objectification, it is evident that the dimension of body surveillance has the highest average (65.22%) and the dimension of body shame has the lowest average (48.40%). Among the contextual variables; faculty of study, monthly household income, and social class affect students' body image. Materialistic values have a positive and significant relationship with students' physical objectification (r=0.307). Among the dimensions of body objectification, body appearance control and body shame have a positive and significant relationship with materialistic values, except for the dimension of body surveillance, which has no significant relationship with materialistic values. The regression model shows that materialistic values account for 11% of the variability observed in body objectification.Therefore, it can be concluded that female students' body objectification stems from their pursuit of materialistic ideals.

self-objectification is one of the women issues that has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. In the present study, using the theory of McKinley and Hyde (1996) and a quantitative survey method, the relationship between the impact of cosmetics advertising and self-objectification in women aged 18 to 35 years in Tehran has been investigated. In order to collect data, a questionnaire consisting of Kwan, Ahmad and Ahmad (2019) questionnaire and McKinley and Hyde (1996) questionnaire was used to measure the effectiveness of cosmetics advertising and was used to self-objectification, respectively. The statistical sample was determined 270 people using “SPSS Sample Power” software and the convenience sampling method was used. To analyze the data, one-sample t-test, simple regression coefficient and also Hayes Process model (to measure the effect of moderator variables) were used. The results of data analysis show that the effect of cosmetics advertising variable is considered as a suitable or moderate level predictor variable for the self-objectification variable and its two components of body surveillance and body shame. The coefficient of correlation was determined at 0.50, 0.54 and 0.48, respectively. This coefficient is negative and significant for the component of body control belief and is equal to 0.18. The variables of mother education and socio-economic status have a moderating role in the relationship between the two main variables of research.

Internalizing other's views of body and perceiving self as sexual object can have negative consequences on women's mental health. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between self-objectivity with self-esteem and depression. A group of female students (N = 202) from University of Shiraz participated in this research and completed the research scales including Objectified Body Consciousness Scale, Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. The results showed that two dimensions of objectified body scale including body shame and body surveillance significantly predicted self-esteem. However, appearance control did not have any significant role in predicting self-esteem. The present study also indicated that body shame and appearance control predicted depression significantly. But, body surveillance did not have any significant contribution in predicting depression. The results of this study support self-objectification theory proposed by Fredrickson and Roberts.
