TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relationship between different types of Facebook use, perceived online social support, and boys' and girls' depressed mood, and found that the harmful impact of Facebook usage exclusively occurs among girls who passively use Facebook and among boys who actively use Facebook in a public setting.
Abstract: This study aims to provide a deeper understanding of the relationships between different types of Facebook use, perceived online social support, and boys' and girls' depressed mood. To address this aim, this study N = 910 developed a comprehensive model that 1 differs between specific types of Facebook use, 2 examines the mediating role of perceived online social support, and 3 takes adolescent users' gender into account. Structural equation modeling showed that the harmful impact of Facebook use exclusively occurs among girls who passively use Facebook and among boys who actively use Facebook in a public setting. Girls, however, who actively use Facebook, either in a public setting or in a private setting and subsequently perceive online social support, benefit from actively using Facebook, as perceived online social support negatively predicted girls' depressed mood. The discussion focuses on the explanation and understanding of these findings, key limitations, and directions for future research.

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between exposure to sexually objectifying music television, primetime television programs, fashion magazines, and social networking sites and the internalization of beauty ideals, self-objectification, and body surveillance was examined among adolescent girls.
Abstract: The relationship between exposure to sexually objectifying music television, primetime television programs, fashion magazines, and social networking sites and the internalization of beauty ideals, self-objectification, and body surveillance was examined among adolescent girls (N = 558). A structural equation model showed direct relationships between sexually objectifying media and the internalization of beauty ideals, and indirect relationships between sexually objectifying media and self-objectification, and body surveillance through the internalization of beauty ideals. The direct relationships between sexually objectifying media and the internalization of beauty ideals, self-objectification, and body surveillance differed across the types of sexually objectifying media. The discussion focuses on the implications of these findings to explain self-objectification among girls.
