根据对年轻人从小就经常接触的一种特定类型的媒体的内容分析，多年来（即，动画片），本研究探讨了什么类型的信息提供了关于身体没有吸引力，身体有吸引力，和普通的外观。这项研究关注的是识别那些倾向于与好看或不好看相关联的特征，然后讨论研究结果的含义。结果表明，许多变量被发现不同的基础上的卡通人物的身体吸引力，包括性别，年龄，智力，体重，情绪状态的经验，亲社会行为，反社会行为，和整体的好/坏。无论何时发现差异，压倒一切的趋势是卡通提供关于有吸引力的积极信息和关于没有吸引力的消极信息。
Relying upon a content analysis of one specific type of medium to which young people are exposed beginning at an early age, on a regular basis, and for many years (i.e., animated cartoons), the present study examines what types of messages are provided about being physically unattractive, physically attractive, and ordinary-looking. This research concerns itself with identifying the characteristics that tend to be associated with being good-looking or unattractive, and then discussing the implications of the findings. Results indicate that many variables were found to differ based on cartoon characters' physical attractiveness, including gender, age, intelligence, body weight, emotional states experienced, prosocial behaviors, antisocial behaviors, and overall goodness/badness. Whenever differences were found, the overriding tendency was for cartoons to provide positive messages about being attractive and negative messages about being unattractive.
