“…В отличие от представленных выше исследований, предложенный V. Benson, C. Hand и R. Hartshorne анализ британской выборки не показывает различий зависимости от социальных сетей по возрасту или полу . Данные исследования O. Afacan и N. Ozbek, полученные ими от 596 учащихся трех средних школ с разным уровнем академической успеваемости в Киршехире (Турция), привели авторов к выводу, что с точки зрения гендерной переменной существенной разницы зависимости от социальных сетей ими не обнаружено (Afacan, 2019).…”

“…Согласно пошаговому регрессионному анализу, зависимость от смартфонов (β = 0,34) предсказывает уровень зависимости от социальных сетей у старшеклассников (Tunc-Aksan, Akbay, 2019). Обнаружена значительная взаимосвязь между средним ежедневным временем использования Интернета старшеклассниками и зависимостью от социальных сетей (Afacan, 2019).…”

Social networks are taking up more and more place in the daily life of modern people, becoming an integral part of our existence. At the same time, the role of social networks is constantly growing along with the rapid growth in the number of their active users. As online interaction for many has become more used than face-to-face communication, social networks have begun to seriously affect the way of life, communication, interests and psychology of people. The use of social networks is growing exponentially and has covered more than a third of the worlds population; therefore, researchers from different countries are actively studying social networks. Considerable empirical data has been accumulated that requires generalization and understanding, which is the purpose of this review. We found positive links between social media addiction and depression, anxiety, stress, neuroticism, emotional problems, low self-esteem, cyber-victimization, physical health problems, mental disorders, loneliness, procrastination, smartphone and internet addiction, and infidelity in relationships. Negative links were revealed between social media addiction and life satisfaction, academic performance of schoolchildren and students, labor productivity and commitment to the organization of its employees, social capital, and age. The main reason for social media addiction is the need for communication, and women are generally more active in social networks than men. This review provides only those links of social media addiction that have been established in a number of studies conducted in different countries. The presented results were obtained abroad using foreign language questionnaires that determine social media addiction. The lack of such a reliable and valid tool among Russian-speaking psychologists has become a serious factor hindering the conduct of similar domestic research. With this in view, the author developed a specially designed social media addiction questionnaire.

“…It drives the individual to feel a need 2 / 12 to engage in social media for a sense of satisfaction regardless of the time and effort spent (Schou Andreassen & Pallesen, 2014). People addicted to social media frequently feel the need to regularly check their social media accounts to avoid seclusion (Afacan & Ozbek, 2019). They cannot control their urge to log in to their social media accounts to feel satisfaction (Hou et al, 2019).…”

“…The high social media addiction among undergraduates can be because this generation is equipped with better literacy skills than other generations. They might be more vulnerable to being addicted to social media and thus affect their academic studies (Afacan & Ozbek, 2019). Thatcher et al (2008) suggested that undergraduates are more likely to be attracted by pleasurable experiences brought by social media, such as playing games and watching videos.…”

Dark Triad and Social Media Addiction among Undergraduates: Coping Strategy as a Mediator

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The excessive use of social media is prevalent among undergraduates. Dark triad personality is one of the significant predictors of social media addiction, but inconsistent findings were reported. This study adopted the personality-coping-outcome theory as a framework to examine whether coping strategies mediate the effects of dark triad personality on social media addiction. The purposive sampling method was used to recruit 219 undergraduates for a survey. The results showed that only narcissism is associated with social media addiction, and only avoidance coping strategy mediated the effects of pathology on social media addiction. It is suggested a complete theory is required to explain the relationships between dark triad personality and social media addiction, and a coping scale to be developed to cover the coping strategies that fit dark triad personality.

“…Likewise, individuals' awareness should be raised about media messages that are encoded in different ways and delivered through various channels, from television advertisements to lyrics on CD's, from newspaper articles to the slogan printed on a t-shirt (Pekman, 2007). In this regard, the characteristics that individuals should have in order to build media awareness, to gain a critical perspective by analyzing media messages, and thus to become media literate, can be listed as follows (Afacan & Ozbek, 2019;Algan, 2005;Hobbs, 1998):…”

The goal of the study is to reveal the effect of activity-based media education on students' critical media literacy levels. A case study with fifth grade students was used in the study. A total of 18 students from a public school were participants. The data was gathered by a rubric and semi-structured interviews. Findings revealed that students have media literacy ability. Based on the result of the study, it can be suggested that either an independent media literacy course or a media literacy education integrated into other courses should be provided from the first grade. Furthermore, because of the fact that media literacy is closely related to critical thinking, teaching methods and activities in which students can gain critical questioning and thinking skills should be preferred.
