According to Gonzales, the study was originally produced to analyze two opposing theories of communication. The objective self-awareness theory conveys that when an individual focuses attention on him- or herself, his or her self-esteem may be negatively affected. This focus makes the individual recall and concentrate on all his or her faults. The hyperpersonal model theorysuggests that when people focus on themselves, they view themselves in a positive light. This acebook study supports the hyperpersonal theory. !There are not a lot of theories that have been tested within the computer-mediated communications field compared to other communication subfields, so this was e"citing from a theoretical perspective,# Gonzales said. $egardless of whether we realize it, acebook use does influence our psychological well-being. %aybe now that we&re aware of its hold, we can become more conscious in how we let it shape our view of ourselves. Relationships between Facebook Intensity, Friendship ontin!ent Self-Esteem, and "ersonality in #$S$ olle!e Students 'nline social networking sites, such as acebook, Google(, and )ebo, have grown in popularity in recent years and they provide an e"citing new area of study in the field of psychology. acebook provides individuals with easy access to view personal information about their friends, coworkers, and even complete strangers *%uise, +hristofides, , -esmarais, .//01. acebook has over 2// million active users and every month over 3// billion minutes are spent on acebook *acebook, ./441. Among 5.6. college students, 078 have a acebook account *'nline9ducation.net, ./441. Given the popularity of online social networking sites, acebook in particular, the current study was designed to investigate the relationship between acebook use, the importance of :uality of friendships to self- esteem, and personality in college students. 6ocial relationships are considered by many to be the most important component of human life *9rber , 9rber, ./441. ;ith the e"pansion of the <nternet and social networking sites, more people are using technology to communicate with their friends and family online and maintain these interpersonal connections in novel ways that were not available in previous generations. 6ome researchers initially believed online activities negatively impacted relationships and feared that virtual communication would replace face-to-face interactions and deteriorate social bonds. 'thers, however, have found support for the idea that social networking sites and the <nternet have e"panded methods of staying socially connected with others and increased relationship closeness and connectedness *)argh , %c=enna, .//>? @acobsen , orste, ./44? Aalkenburg , Beter, .//01. 6ocial networking sites, such as acebook, allow users to add !friends# and keep track of their status, interests, photos, !likes#, and updates of others& personal information in cyberspace. <nternet use is related to both positive and negative psychological and social factors, but the key to understanding these outcomes is through e"amining specific types of <nternet use instead of simply the amount of time spent online *6hields , =ane, ./441. ;hile using social media can have positive benefits associated with community engagement, education, social connectedness, and identity development, it can also lead to risks linked to social rejection, cyberbullying, depression, e"posure to inappropriate content, and other negative conse:uences related to general well-being *'&=eefee et al., ./44? Aalkenburg , Beter, .//01. or e"ample, a negative relationship has been found between time spent using electronic media, including social networking sites, and college grades *@acobsen , orste, ./441. <n college, upper-class students with more acebook friends reported high levels of social adjustment and stronger attachment to the college than students with less acebook friends, although freshmen did not benefit from having more acebook friends and actually reported decreased social and emotional adjustment *=alpidou, +ostin, , %orris, ./441. <n other research on college students, a positive relationship was found between grade point average and the practice of starting the day using the <nternet, while a negative relationship was found between grade point average and listening to music online *6hields , =ane, ./441. %any students watch online news videos first thing in the morning and these videos, as opposed to listening to music, can be informative and help with course learning, performance, and social awareness. 6tarting the day online was also negatively related to symptoms of depression, perhaps because it demonstrates a desire for social connectivity *6hields , =ane, ./441. Social and "sycholo!ical orrelates of Internet #se amon! olle!e Students The advent of the widespread use of the <nternet in the 400/s was met with both fear and enthusiasm regarding the potential impact on social relationships and psychological well-being *)argh , %c=enna, .//>1. Cowever, a relatively early study by =raut and associates *=raut et al., 400D1 seemed to set the tone for much of the research that would follow. They found that use of the <nternet appeared to increase loneliness, depression, and stress among a sample of 470 adults. They called this the !<nternet Barado"# in that a technology that theoretically would increase communication could instead have negative social and psychological effects. 9ven though the results actually reversed in a follow-up study published several years later *=raut et al. .//.1, the original study inspired a significant amount of research designed to assess potential negative effects of <nternet use. Eoung and $ogers& *400D1 study was also influential in generating interest in the relationship between <nternet !addiction# and depression. Accordingly, studies on <nternet addiction have proliferated *)yun et al. .//0? +hou, +ondron, , )elland, .//21. 6urprisingly, relatively few of the studies have focused on college students, even though college students have been found to have both high levels of <nternet use *=andell, 400D? Bew <nternet and American Fife, .//.1 as well as depression *American Bsychiatric Association, .//0? Beterson, .//.? Aoelker, .//G1. The studies on college students differ in terms of whether they measure <nternet addiction or simply <nternet use, and the specific social and psychological variables they investigate. The results are mi"ed H some studies find negative relationships *e.g., %orahan-%artin , 6chumaker, .///? %orahan-%artin , 6chumaker, .//G1, some positive relationships *e.g., %organ , +otton, .//G1, and others no relationships *e.g., Anderson, .//41. Facebook, self-esteem and loneliness The main findings about <nternet usage relevant to our study are that loneliness is animportant predictor of problematic internet use *+eyhan, , +eyhan, .//D1 and that it can also be determined as both the cause and effect of problematic internet use *=im, Fa$ose, ,Beng, .//01. Anderson *.//41 found that especially among men there is a small percentage of people that use the <nternet to an e"tent that self- reportedly interferes in a negative way withtheir social life. =raut et al. *400D1 found that greater <nternet use increases both lonelinessand depression. 6everalstudies *=alpidou, +ostin, , %orris, ./44? %ehdizadeh ./4/? Tucker, ./4/1 found that people who spent more time on acebook were more likely to have low self-esteem.+onnecting these results with the often recreated finding that low self-esteem and a greater sense of loneliness are connected *e.g. 6tephan, aeth, , Famm 40DD1 and the notion thatmost of the time spent on the <nternet in general is being spent on acebook *Aevermann,./4/? Gaudin, .//0? ;hitney, ./4/1 H which means that the reported findings for highinternet use should generally be applicable to acebook too H we come to the conclusion thatgreater acebook use is associated with low self-esteem and a feeling of loneliness. )ut the picture is not all that clear, as some researchers like )urke, %arlow and Fento *./4/1 arguethat the connection between intensive use of online social networks and loneliness e"isted inthe past, but with the social networks becoming ever more popular, it does not anymore. Self-"resentation %$&' (arcisissim and self-esteem on facebook <n psychology, self-esteem is deIned as a person&s overall self-evaluation of his or her worth.4. <mplicit and e"plicit self- esteem are subtypes of self-esteem. <mplicit self-esteem is an automatic, unconscious self-evaluation? e"plicit self-esteem is a more conscious, reJective self-evaluation.4. $egardless of the type of self-esteem, one of the most pervasive facts about this construct is that all humans have a vital need to main- tain andKor raise it.4 Barallel to this line of thought, it can be e"pected that individuals will strive for positive self- presentations in both online and ofJine social settings. <t is also likely that people with low self-esteem will be even more eager to engage in online activities that may raise their self- esteem.4 )y doing so, it may provide an outlet for the hoped- for possible self to be e"pressed.4 Cowever, with regard to online impression management, =ra Lmer and ;inter did not Ind any differences between self-presentation and low and high self-esteem users.4 These contradictory results warrant further research within the emerging Ield of online self- presentation. ) Literature Review of Research on Facebook #se The term Msurveillance& was first used by Fampe and his colleagues *.//71 in one of the most influential studies on acebook. According to them, !acebook may foster relationship building by allowing users to track other members of their community# *Fampe et al., .//7, p.4731. <n other words, acebook users keep in touch with their peers by retrieving information about them on the website, keeping track of their activity, reading what they write, or looking at what they post on their wall. The researchers carried out two surveys among first-year students at %ichigan 6tate 5niversity, and found that surveillance is mostly employed to keep in touch with high school friends. 6imilarly, Neynep Tufekci *.//D1 treated the concept of Msocial grooming& intended as the !interest in e"changing and browsing social information about friends and ac:uaintances# *Tufekci, .//D, p.22/1. 6he carried out a A Fiterature $eview of $esearch on acebook 5se The 'pen +ommunication @ournal, ./4., Aolume 7 G0 study investigating how social networks& use and adoption are related to social grooming. )asing her research on a preliminary :ualitative study with focus groups consisting of 24 college students, she developed a paper-and-pencil survey to carry out a :uantitative study among 34G college students, and attempting to answer the research :uestions. The findings show that acebook users are more interested in social grooming as opposed to non-users and that social grooming appears to be one of the most attractive features of the website. According to the study carried out by Fampe et al. *.//71 acebook users employ surveillance to find out information about people with whom they have any sort of connection, even weak ones such as being in the same class. Cowever, it is rarely the case that users employ the website to find new friends with the intention of continuing the relationship offline. =eeping in touch in acebook can be seen as a sort of Mstalking,& as users can gather information about other people by simply observing without directly being involved in an interaction ontin!encies of Self-*orth and Social-(etworkin!-Site +ehavior 'nline social media represent signiIcant new opportuni- ties for involvement in broader media cultures. +elebrities and everyday people alike use microblogging platforms like Twitter to communicate with MMfollowers&& and MMfans,&& and provide personal photos to be commented upon and dis- cussed by friends and strangers.

Early )dolescents- As adolescents begin to use the internet as a way to reinforce their offline relationships and transform into the most prominent users of the internet, it is no mystery why they would be avid users of social networking sites, like acebook. Fenhart and %adden *.//31 define social networks as !spaces on the internet where users can create a profile and connect that profile to others to create a personal network.# As they evaluate their demographics Fenhart and %adden *.//31 note that age is an important factor in understanding social networks. Their study in .//3 noted that >48 of teens between the ages of twelve and thirteen are users of social networking sites where as teens of high school age between fourteen and seventeen responded as 748 being users of social networking. our years later in .//0, those numbers showed significant growth indicating that 228 of teens between twelve and thirteen and D.8 of teens between fourteen and seventeen were now users of social networking sites *Fenhart, ./441. 0 6ocial networking websites offer various ways for users to communicate with other members, both within and outside their personal friend networks *Fenhart , %adden, .//31. ;ithin social networking sites, particularly acebook, there are several functions that allow users to facilitate communication including sending private messages to a single individual or group of users, posting comments on the wall of another user, sending !pokes# or kudos, sharing links, posting photos or giving personal status updates that can include a geographic location and names of others who might be in the physical company of the user *Fenhart , %adden, .//31. Fenhart and %adden *.//31 presented the viewpoint of several adolescents who participated in a focus group in which they indicated that they associated positive feelings with friends posting on their profile wall, noting that D>8 of adolescents surveyed for their study reported that they have engaged in comment posting on their social networking site. Fenhart and %adden *.//31 also indicate that one of the major reasons adolescents are using social networking sites is because these sites give them the opportunity to plunge themselves into a group of their peers getting instant feedback and affirmation through the built in functions of the website. !Teens get to feel like they are a part of a group of like-minded friends, and can visualize their network of relationships, displaying their popularity for others# *Fenhart , %adden, .//31. Though the research has discussed several of the possible benefits that are linked to the use of the internet and social networking sites for adolescents, there is still a :uestion of why so many teens feel a draw to use them. Ees, it is true many adolescents use social networks because their friends use them and after all, peer approval and belonging to a friend group is essential to an adolescent&s well-being however, what is it 4/ about online social networks that keep them engaged and going back for moreP =oh and =im *.//G1 discuss how cyberspace can serve as a way for individuals to generate a virtual sense of community drawing them in.

After completing their research of 43. participants, =oh and =im *.//G1 concluded that a virtual sense of community has three dimensionsQ membership, influence and immersion, and that each play a role in generating a sense of belonging in cyberspace. The research indicated that membership is strongly influenced by an individual&s leadership within an online community, the enjoyability of the interaction and whether the interaction generated an opportunity for offline contact *=oh , =im, .//G1. ;hile =oh and =im *.//G1 indicated that cyberspace can generate feelings of belonging and community, $eich *./4/1 e"panded on that idea to investigate an adolescents& sense of community on social networking sites.
