Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of body shaming on adolescent mental health and its implications for guidance and counseling at SMK Kesuma Bangsa 2 Depok. A quantitative research approach was employed using a survey method. The participants of this study consisted of 138 students from grades X, XI, and XII in the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed through prerequisite tests and simple linear regression analysis. The results showed that body shaming has a significant effect on adolescent mental health. The coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.340, indicating that body shaming contributes 34% to variations in students’ mental health, which falls into the moderate category. Furthermore, the correlation coefficient (r) of 0.304 also indicates a moderate relationship between body shaming and adolescent mental health. These findings suggest that body shaming plays a meaningful role in influencing adolescents’ mental health. Therefore, guidance and counseling services are essential in addressing this issue by providing preventive and interventive programs to support students’ psychological well-being.
