description Screen media usage among young children has increased dramatically in recent years. Although media consumption has been noted as an influencing factor in children’s body image, the relationship between children’s body satisfaction and screen media usage in children under 10 years old remains a less-explored topic. A cross-sectional study was designed to analyze the association between screen media usage and the body image satisfaction of Spanish children 5–9 years old. By examining the data of 792 schoolchildren (N = 363 boys, 429 girls; M = 7.23 years), this study sought to reveal the association between screen media usage and children’s body satisfaction. The results showed significant correlations between the use of television and video games and satisfaction expressed with facial features and overall body scheme. Observations by sex indicated positive correlations between television consumption and satisfaction with weight among boys, while in girls‚ a negative association was observed between video game consumption and satisfaction with skin and overall body scheme. Multiple regression analyses revealed a positive association between television consumption and satisfaction with weight, face, and hair, whereas the use of video games was negatively associated with satisfaction with eye and skin color. This study provides a better understanding of the relationship between screen consumption and body satisfaction in minors; accordingly, it seeks to contribute to the design of more strategic and focused media literacy interventions, particularly among those populations that are less well-explored‚ such as young children.

Aunque el consumo mediático es considerado un factor influyente en la satisfacción corporal infantil, la relación entre el consumo de pantallas y la satisfacción corporal en menores de diez años es un tema aún poco explorado. Se diseñó un estudio transversal con una muestra de 792 estudiantes (N = 363 niños, 429 niñas, M = 7.23 años) para analizar la asociación entre el uso de pantallas y la satisfacción corporal en niños y niñas de 5 a 9 años. Los resultados muestran relaciones entre el consumo de televisión y videojuegos y la satisfacción de rasgos faciales y esquema corporal global. Las observaciones por sexo indicaron correlaciones positivas para el consumo de televisión y la satisfacción con el peso entre los varones mientras que en las niñas se observó una asociación negativa para el consumo de videojuegos y la satisfacción de la piel y el esquema corporal global. Los análisis de regresión múltiple revelaron una asociación positiva para el consumo de televisión con la satisfacción con el peso, la cara y el cabello; por su parte, el uso de videojuegos se asoció negativamente con la satisfacción con el color de los ojos y la piel. Este estudio aporta un mayor conocimiento sobre la relación entre consumo de pantallas y satisfacción corporal infantil y puede contribuir al diseño de intervenciones de alfabetización mediática más estratégicas y focalizadas, sobre todo entre aquellas poblaciones menos exploradas como la audiencia infantil.Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, Spain (CSO2014-58220-R) and Grant FPI MINECO (BES-2015-071228).Universitat d'Alacant202220222022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10230/54916http://doi.org/10.14198/MEDCOM.23406reponame:Recercat.
