  <title>Literature Review</title>
<p>Portrayal of skinny, slim and perfect body image models have positive relationship with eating disorders and low self-esteem. Media is presenting female image is making perception of viewers that female should be like that image (i.e., models, actresses, pop stars). Media is presenting female models as object not presenting as respected image. Media is presenting women as object to sell commodity and as weak identity.  This image set a pattern of beauty that every female should achieve. Study conducted in Finland on the topic of assessing the influence of fashion clothing advertisements on women’s consumer behavior. The results demonstrated that diverse elements like style, value and promoting influence complete ladies&apos; purchasing conduct. The force of impact was diverse for each age class. Understudies age between 21-25 get impacted more. They are discovered spending the more cash on diverse things like garments, beautifiers and so forth which provide for them the same excellence which models have in notices (Abad, 2012).</p><p>Another study was conducted on effects of advertisements of consumer behavior of university students?Survey strategy was utilized to discover the impact and effects of commercials. College understudies maturing 18 to 24 were asked. Six brands were used as FMSG unit. It is clear from the results that notices impact any salary bunch. Individuals get more affected by the model that the inscription or watchwords. (Bashir, et al., 2009). Similarly, study was conducted in Sargodha University on role of advertisements in promoting dissatisfaction among youth. Essentially the study was meant to discover impact on female youth. 150 understudies were browsed 23 offices. Poll strategy was utilized. Later on, elucidating and inferential procedures were received. It was discovered that female depiction in advertisements influence the brains more and it causes the dissatisfaction toward oneself. Later on, the finish of this exploration was the promoters ought to give right data and they ought not beguile the purchasers as shoppers (Kanwal, et al., 2013).</p><p>Studies conducted by different researchers Rekha and Kamran (2012), Richins (1991) (Kilboune, 1999) and InNigham and Jha, 2007 on impact of females in advertisements on youth by. They all expressed that they get affected by ads. They get more impacted by the female magnificence her body size and thinness. So, when they see savvy, thin and pretty models in promotions it builds their disappointment they could call their own body which further prompts their dietary problems. The results demonstrate that thin models in notices make dietary problems and body disappointment among the regular individuals which eventually bring down their respect toward oneself and mental fulfillment. Girls also try to be like women and try to adopt their styles of hair, makeup, clothes even weight. Mostly consumers are unaware of the photo shopping of magazines, due to which the images are totally changed. Even models themselves don’t like exactly those images. The pictures in magazines give the unrealistic images by using techniques, which lead the women towards dieting, eating disorders, body dissatisfaction and even they borrow money to buy the expensive clothing and spend on makeover etc. The explanation behind higher reaction rate among females for items could be the higher number of promotions is focused at them. In the review of all the studies mentioned above it can be stated that female models in advertisements have impact on purchasing behavior and also on female’s attitude. Some studies stated that portrayal of women in commercials influencing viewers mind towards women in our society. It also stated that women perceived beauty as they saw in media</p><p><break/></p><p><bold>Hypothesis</bold></p><p>•	It is more likely that exposure to TV advertisement positively influence purchasing behavior of women.</p><p>•	television advertisements contribute toward creation of body dissatisfaction among female viewers</p><p><break/></p><p><bold>Methodology</bold></p><p>According to A specific way of performing an operation that implies precise deliverables at the end of each stage (Baskerville, 1991) as per requirement of the present study, survey research method was adopted to explore and examine the nature of relationships between women attitude formation on watching portrayal of female models in television advertisements and its impacts on females.
