“…Studies have shown that the prevalence of FB addiction among adolescents is ranging from 4% to 43.2% [13,[19][20][21][22][23].

OBJECTIVE: In the last decade, using social network sites (SNSs) has grown and become an integral part of daily routine for adolescents. As known, ADHD is a major public health problem for all addiction types, including the Internet and SNSs addiction. Our aim was to examine the effect of ADHD, impulsivity types, using motivations, internalizing and externalizing symptoms on Facebook (FB) overuse and FB addiction among adolescents. METHODS: Participants were recruited from ADHD and non-ADHD adolescents who were applied to the child and adolescent psychiatry and have an active FB account. We used FB Use and Motivations Form, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), Bergen FB Addiction Scale (BFAS) and Conners-Wells' Adolescent Self-Report Scale-Long form (CASS:L). RESULTS: Our results indicated that ADHD adolescents have more fake FB accounts, have their own accounts for longer time, are using FB for more motivation types and FB overuse is more frequent than in non-ADHD counterparts. According to the degree of FB use, we have shown that adolescents with FB overuse behaviour have more externalizing symptoms and have higher CASS:L and Barrat impulsivity scores than others. Risk factors for FB overuse are: having a fake FB account and having higher ADHD index scores; risk factors for FB addiction are: higher attentional impulsivity, higher conduct problems scores and higher ADHD index scores. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study have improved our understanding about the risk factors of a new behavioural addiction type among adolescents. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Intimately related to Web 2.0 is user-generated content (e.g., blogs, posts or tweets) often made available via social media websites. The proliferation of social media during the last decade has introduced a more active (and interactive) internet usage that satisfy various socio-psychological aspects, such as showing affection, the need to vent negative feelings, social connection, recognition as well as entertainment, information needs and cognitive requirements (Yoo, 2012;Giannakos, Chorianopoulos, Giotopoulos, & Vlamos, 2013;Leung, 2013;Wei, Lin, Lu, & Chuang, 2015;Yu, 2016). These new web technologies have a significant impact on journalism and its relation to the audience (Goode, 2009).…”

This paper studies the web third-person effect (WTPE) hypothesis in the context of news websites and social media.Specifically, the study examines the role of social media metrics (i.e., shares and likes of news articles) in shaping users' opinion about the websites. Users' news sharing intention in social media is also investigated. Based on a structured online questionnaire (N = 7,404), the results confirm that WTPE can be found in social media metrics without the presence of specific message content. It should be noted that the effect was found at three perceptual levels, self, friends, and other users. Regarding intention for news sharing, text was indicated as the most important reason among Internet users. Finally, the work demonstrates significant correlations between WTPE and article characteristics that influence people's attitudes to share news online.
