| Abstract (English): | The increasing use of social media among preadolescents has been found to impact body satisfaction and lead to the development of dualism between real and virtual identities. A sample of 2378 Italian preadolescents (Mage= 12.02 years, SD= 0.82) was recruited to investigate this issue. The results showed that using filters/apps to alter physical appearance and image-mediated interactions with peers and celebrities/influencers were negatively associated with body satisfaction.

| Abstract (Italian): | L'incremento dell'uso dei social media tra i preadolescenti è stato dimostrato avere un impatto sulla soddisfazione corporea, causando una forma di dualismo tra identità virtuale e reale. Per approfondire questo tema, un campione di 2378 preadolescenti italiani (Mage= 12.02 years, SD= 0.82) è stato reclutato. I risultati hanno mostrato che l'utilizzo dei filtri e delle app per alterare l'aspetto fisico e l'interazione tra pari e celebrità/influencer basate sulle immagini sono associate negativamente con la soddisfazione corporea.
