Abstract

The article presents the results of a pilot study of the comparative analysis of women’s personal characteristics in relation to their appearance and what parts of the body they are less satisfied with. The article reveals the concept of body image. The article reflects the connections between self-esteem of body parts, General self-esteem, self-esteem, and objective assessments of appearance. Dissatisfaction with appearance can be measured using both explicit and implicit
measures. It is an indisputable fact that a person’s appearance is constantly at the center of attention. There is a lot of evidence about how people strive to improve their appearance. Women’s self-esteem is determined by how well or poorly they evaluate their body parts and appearance, and how satisfied they are with relationships with other people. Accordingly, dissatisfaction affects all areas of life and relationships with people.
