Social Media Use and Self-Esteem Among Adolescents

Correlational study of social media intensity, social comparison and self-esteem in adolescents.

About this project

This study investigates the relationship between social media use and self-esteem among adolescents. Using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and a social media intensity measure, it tests whether heavy use, upward social comparison and passive scrolling predict lower self-esteem, and whether active creation predicts the opposite.
