Possible Questions (Chapter 1)

We've conducted this research to explore

and gain a deeper understanding of the
experiences of Senior High School
students who faced body shaming not
only at school but also at home. For
body-shaming continues to rise in
numbers, that had already affected
hundreds of innocent teenagers making
them think that they are not beautiful,
they are imperfect, and never enough.
For, Body shaming can bring about poor
consequences on the whole; low self-

different mental health problems, in
addition to making a contribution to a
subculture of discrimination and
prejudice. By understanding the causes
and results of body shaming, this study
aims to expand strategies for better
inclusivity in schools and the community.
Finally, With the upward push of social
media and the steady exposure to
idealized body images, the issue of body
shaming has grown to be even greater
pervasive and pressing.
The title unspoken emotions in our
research title mean, that for those
individuals who are being body shamed
refer to internal feelings (primarily the
feeling of fear, sadness, and disgust) and
thoughts that they may not express
openly or talk about with others. These
emotions can include shame,
embarrassment, self-doubt, and low self-

it can cause them to feel negatively
about their appearance and can result in
a cycle of negative self-talk and self-
criticism. Thus, it was titled "The
unspoken emotions" in order to
emphasize the majority of individuals
who are being body shamed with fear of
expressing themselves in thinking that
they may never be heard.
What are your research questions? 1. What are the experiences of Senior
High school Students who went through
body shaming?
2. What are the coping mechanisms of
the Senior High School Students who
 experienced body shaming?
3. What are the insights and realizations
of Senior High School Students who
experienced and encountered body
shaming
The purpose of this study is aimed to
explore the body shaming experiences of
What is the purpose of your study? senior high school students in their
struggles, distress, coping mechanisms,
and realizations and insights.
What are your theoretical lens? What’s Firstly, the Stigmatization Theory
its use in your study? suggests that if people are visible as
deviating from social norms or
expectancies, they will be stigmatized
and face bad social effects. This can lead
to body shame, specifically for folks who
are obese or overweight (Puhl & Heuer,
2009). Stigmatization Theory will help
explain the possible negative
consequences of social beauty
requirements and norms in this study
towards people who do not fit such
standards. Example: For instance,
individuals who are obese and
overweight can be stigmatized or
discriminated for their body size, which
can bring about discrimination inside the
workplace, school, home, and different
settings. This stigmatization can possibly
lead to terrible self-perceptions and
decrease vanity or self-assurance,
perpetuating a cycle of body shaming.
Social Learning Theory suggests that
individuals learn behaviors through
observation and imitation of others.
When individuals are exposed to body
shaming behaviors, they may learn and
internalize these behaviors, leading to
the perpetuation of body shaming
(Bandura, 1977). Thus, this theory will
be used in this study to learn how
behaviors and attitudes can be affected
by observing and imitating the behaviors
and attitudes of others around them for
it can create an unfounded belief. In the
context of body shaming, social learning
theory can help explain how negative
attitudes and behaviors towards certain
body types or physical features are
perpetuated and reinforced within social
groups.
For example: If someone has been to
grow up in an environment or area
where remarks regarding weight and
appearance are not unusual, normalized,
and standard, they will end up part of
one's nature via studying or unconscious
assimilation of those attitudes and start
to engage in comparable conduct toward
others.
Social Comparison Theory suggests that
people evaluate their own appearance
and self-worth by comparing themselves
to others. When individuals perceive that
their appearance falls short of societal
beauty standards, they may experience
negative emotions and engage in body
shaming behaviors to bring others down
and elevate their own social status
(Festinger, 1954). For Example: For
instance, someone who is self-acutely
aware of their weight can also evaluate
themselves to others who are
comparable in weight or body form to
see how they measure up which can
doubtlessly cause body shaming to
satisfy their own insecurities.
Social Identity Theory shows that people
derive their self-idea, or sense of who
they're, from the social groups to which
they belong. According to social identity
theory, people have a tendency to
categorize themselves and others into
groups primarily based on shared traits
which include appearance and then have
interaction in social evaluation between
those groups. (Tajfel & Turner, 1986). The
social identity principle could be used in
explaining how people may additionally
use insults or criticisms primarily based
on looks to assist their own social
identification or to denigrate individuals
who are not a part of it in the context of
body shaming. For example: If someone
who strongly identifies with a certain
body type or size may use derogatory
language towards those who do not fit
that mold in order to reinforce their own
sense of belonging and superiority within
their group.
 Objectification Theory says that people
are regularly viewed as objects to be
evaluated primarily based on their looks
rather than an individual's unique
personality and traits. When someone
engages in frame shaming, they may be
objectifying the man or woman and
reducing them to their physical
appearance (Fredrickson & Roberts,
1997). For example: An example of
objectification are advertising and
marketing campaigns that use visual
presentation and images of thin,
conventionally appealing women to sell
products, perpetuating the concept that
a lady's price is based on their
appearance, in preference to being
valued for her capabilities or
accomplishments.
What is the significance of your study? This research aimed to explore the
Senior High School Students experience
of body shaming. This is to provide light
on the teenagers’ physical and mental
health that is suffering due to body
shaming. For, body shaming can result in
much lower self-esteem, disordered
eating habits, and body dissatisfaction,
all of which can cause anxiety,
depression, and other mental health
problems.

As the participants of this research are in

the adolescent stage, wherein they are
creating their identities and developing
their sense of self. In their experiences
and lessons, we can learn about the
possible social and cultural norms
surrounding beauty and body size as
well as media representations that foster
body shame and negative body images.
The findings and results of this research
are aimed to provide interventions and
policy modifications intended to support
teenagers' development of a good self-
image and self-esteem. To provide
support and insights in promoting
awareness and encouraging empathy
among classmates, parents, and
teachers. Wherein, we can learn to
collaborate and establish a more positive
 and inclusive learning environment for
all students by being aware of the
effects of body shaming on their lives.

This qualitative inquiry used a
phenomenology design in order to elicit
indepth information about the
informants. in this research model, the
researchers look to gather information
that explains how individuals experience
a phenomenon and how they feel about
it. Phenomenology is a technique in
qualitative studies that specializes in the
commonality of a lived revel inside a
specific group. The essential purpose of
the method is to reach an outline of the
nature of the precise phenomenon
(Creswell, 2013).

This study used triangulation to validate

its results. Triangulation is a process in
research that involves using multiple

findings. According to Denzin (1978),
triangulation has become a critical
concept in qualitative studies and is
widely used to increase the validity and
reliability of research findings (Creswell,
2013).

A purposive sampling technique was

used to identify the participants of this
