The first study’s findings support a general direct influence of body weight on skepticism towards advertising. The second study finds out that specific products influence the relation of body weight, self-esteem and skepticism towards advertising. The third study discovers seasons as a crucial factor on the relationship. The fourth study shows that overweight models cause higher levels of skepticism towards advertising among normal weight and overweight women. 000760124 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed August 23, 2016). 000760124 650_0 $$aAdvertising$$xPsychological aspects. 000760124 650_0 $$aSkepticism. 000760124 650_0 $$aBody weight. 000760124 650_0 $$aSelf-esteem. 000760124 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBrauneis, Sabrina$$tThe Relationship of Body Weight and Skepticism towards Advertising$$dWiesbaden : Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden,c2016$$z9783658148607 000760124 830_0 $$aForschungsgruppe Konsum und Verhalten. 000760124 852__ $$bebk 000760124 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-658-14861-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000760124 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:760124$$pGLOBAL_SET 000760124 980__ $$aEBOOK 000760124 980__ $$aBIB 000760124 982__ $$aEbook 000760124 983__ $$aOnline 000760124 994__ $$a92$$bISE
