viewed as positively as small-sized models?" European Journal of Marketing 47.3/4

female model has been changed from petite, to average.This particular article was
accessed through the GALE search engine, found on the CSUN Oviatt Library Website.
This article is a scholarly one, that had properly cited all of its references, which has
given me reason to deem is trustworthy. I find this information extremely useful in my
research endeavors due to the fact that it gives me valuable insight on the perspective of
the consumer. It will serve as evidence of my claim, that objectification of women in
advertising (even that of increasingly smaller models) has a negative effect on the way
that both men and women view female bodies.

I find the article to be a trustworthy one, because was published by a reliable publisher,
and also correctly cites all of its references. The information from this text will further
my argument because it directly states the consequences of poor portrayal of women in
media images. It also gives ample evidence of its claim that I may draw from and use in
my paper.
Knoll, Silke, and Martin Eisend. "Gender roles in advertising Measuring and comparing gender
stereotyping on public and private TV channels in Germany."International Journal of
Advertising 30.5 (2011): 867-888. www.warc.com. Web. 10 Nov. 2014. This article
discusses the amount of gender stereotyping in public and private TV channels in
Germany. It was accessed through google scholar, which then lead me to this particular
text. In this case, both of the authors are well-known researchers in their field, and are
both professors at universities. This indicates to me that their work is that of integrity and
is a viable source of information. This text will be useful to me due to the fact that is
provides statistical information on the amount of gender roles in television. When public
channels were compared to private channels, the question was not as to whether there
was more or less stereotyping, the question was as to the type of stereotyping.
Vaes, Jeroen, Paola Paladino, and Elisa Puvia. "Are sexualized women complete human beings?
Why men and women dehumanize sexually objectified women."European Journal of
Social Psychology 41 (2011): 774-785. Wiley Online Library. Web. 10 Nov. 2014. This
article discusses the comparison of women with non-human objects. The results stated
that sexually objectified women in this particular study, were the only ones that were

associated with less human concepts. The text was located through google scholar,
which then directed me to the article. The publisher of this article is a well respected and
dependable one. All of the references are cited, and the authors are well educated in the
field of cognitive sciences and education. This information is extremely practical for me
due to the fact that it provides research evidence of both men and womens reactions to
sexually objectified women. It will serve as even more foundation for me papers thesis
statement.
