BBC: More than half of 18 to 34-year-olds feel that reality TV and social media have a negative effect on how they see their bodies, a survey has found.
The ComRes survey of 2,000 British adults for BBC 5 Live also suggested that younger people were more likely to consider having cosmetic surgery.
Some 35% of people said shows such as Love Island and The Only Way is Essex were responsible.
This figure rose to 55% in the 18 to 34-year-old age group.
