Abstract:

The purpose of study is to identify the correlation between watching Filipino trending TikTok outfit ideas to the aspects of body image and its lifestyle influence, particularly among young adults in Bacoor, Cavite. Body image refers to a person's interpretation of their physical image and emotions and feelings. The said aspects are perceptual, affective, and cognitive. To ensure the anonymity of respondents regarding personal information, we provide consent forms to the young adult participants in Bacoor, Cavite. All respondents who are TikTok users were chosen using random sampling to achieve the desired findings. Pearson’s R correlation was used to determine the statistics and the correlation in the study. With regards with the demographics, there is no significant difference between males and females when it comes to body image. Results showed that affective body image is significantly correlated with perceptual and cognitive body image. Perceptual body image is significantly correlated with cognitive body image. Lastly, affective, perceptual, and cognitive body image is correlated with the influence of TikTok.
