Detection of image filters is biased by gender and internalized beauty ideals
Social media has affected how we relate to our body image. Digital makeovers have both reinforced existing beauty ideals and created new ones. This project investigated whether young adults’ detection of image filters was biased by internalized beauty ideals and gender. Participants completed a visu...

Digital makeovers have both reinforced existing beauty ideals and created new ones. This project investigated whether young adults’ detection of image filters was biased by internalized beauty ideals and gender. Participants completed a visual detection task (forced choice paradigm) where contrast filter correction was assessed for images of male and female bodies that were thin, average, and curvaceous/muscular. Results showed that people can detect filters and that accuracy is higher when filters are applied to bodies that represent the historical beauty ideals: thin female bodies and muscular male bodies. These findings suggest that the perception of low-level image features is biased to fit internalized beliefs about beauty. 2025-07-16T14:19:01Z 2025-07-16T14:19:01Z 2024 Artículo 1069-7977 https://repositorio.uca.edu.ar/handle/123456789/20186 eng Atribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 4.0 Internacional http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ application/pdf Cognitive Science Society Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society. 46, 2024. |
