1	Kroppsideal och konsumenten : en kvalitativ studie om butikernas effekt / Body ideal and the consumer : a qualitative study on the effect in retail stores Walldén, Sophie, Priebe, Victoria, Almén, Naomi January 2018 (has links) I den här uppsatsen har en kvalitativ undersökningsmetod tillämpats i form av fokusgrupper, enskilda intervjuer och observationer för att undersöka och försöka förstå hur kroppsideal kommuniceras i klädbutiker, samt om unga kvinnor påverkas av detta. För att försöka förstå hur denna kommunikation utspelar sig har en linjär kommunikationsmodell tillämpats där effekten på mottagaren står i fokus. Den forskning som tidigare bedrivits inom området har konstaterat att mötet mellan kläder och den egna kroppen ofta är problematiskt. Hur och varför detta kommer sig är en fråga större än vad vi kommer att helt lyckas besvara i denna uppsats. Vi kan dock fastslå att det borde ligga i företagen och butikernas bästa intresse att förbättra det klimat som råder idag. Detta genom att se över sin visuella kommunikation och storleksutbud. / In this essay a qualitative survey method has been applied in the form of focus groups,individual interviews and observations to investigate and attempt to understand how bodyideals are communicated in clothing stores, and whether young women are affected by this.To determine which variables that takes part in this process a linear communication modelhas been used where the effect on the recipient are in focus.The research previously conducted in the field has found that the meeting between clothesand the body is often problematic.

2	Hur representeras genus i webbshoppen på klädföretaget I Can I Will? : En kvantitativ och kvalitativ analys med fokus på kroppspositivitet / How does the clothing company I Can I Will represent gender in theironline shop? : A quantitative and qualitative analysis focusing on body positivity. Dettwiler, Mimi January 2023 (has links) This paper uses a quantitative and qualitative approach to analyze whether the Swedishfitness clothing brand I Can I Will’s representation in their online shop corresponds with theirspoken concept of being a brand for everyone who works out regardless if you are training togain strength, change your looks or just because you enjoy it. The quantitative analysisinvestigates the models length compared to height statistics around the world, and theirclothing size relative to social norms about the ideal body. The qualitative analysis is basedon examining visual signs such as eye contact, body language, posture and fitting of clothing.These components are analyzed through a body positivity and gender perspective, usingtheories about representation, body positivism, the ideal body, gender roles, male gaze,advertising and commodities.Findings suggest that there is a lack of representation of different bodies in I Can I Will’sonline shop. The male models are exclusively tall and muscular and the female models aremostly thin or slim. The few times female representation of a larger size occurred, the modelsstill had the, according to society, ideal body. In the visual analysis, there was nothing thatcould be perceived as norm breaking as all of them are following the social structured genderroles. To summarize, the clothing companies representation does not correspond with itsspoken concept of addressing everybody who wants to train regardless of their looks, it seemslike they only like to address tall and already well-trained men and mostly slim women with abody shape where breasts and hips are wider than their waist.
