There are many different debates regarding the time spent on Instagram by social media addiction and life satisfaction. In consequence, in this research, it is aimed to reveal the variables that predict the time spent on Instagram by university students. The research is done in accordance with the causal and correlation model by using a quantitative research method. The results of the research are predicted by the time spent on Instagram, gender, age and social media addiction. Time spent on Instagram differentiates in accordance with the level of social media addiction (Sig = 0.00, p < 0.05) but does not differentiate by life satisfaction (Sig = 0.06, p > 0.05). As social media addiction increases, life satisfaction decreases  (r = −0.19). Women spent 0.42 times more time, and the women at the age of 21–22 years spent 0.38 times more time on Instagram. Keywords: Instagram, life satisfaction, social media, addiction.

The study group of the research was formed by the voluntary participation of 193 students (133 male and 60 female), studying at the School of Physical Education and Sports of Istanbul Gelişim University.

After the data showed normal distribution in the Kolmogrov-Smirnov normality test, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson Correlation test were used in the analysis. The level of significance in the study was set at 0.05. In the research findings; gender and age groups of individuals affect their leisure time satisfaction levels; It has also been found that age groups affect social media addiction. As a result, it was determined that leisure satisfaction levels and social media addiction changed according to various variables of university students, and a negative significant relationship was found between leisure satisfaction and social media addiction.

In science, medicine and technology, our discoveries and theories are constantly under scrutiny. Changes in society can create a need for new research and the questioning of topics previously thought to be understood. There are many examples that illustrate this, none more contentious than the subject of addiction. This article aims to explore our developing knowledge of behavioural addiction and examines social media in particular. Furthermore, the article considers the associated symptoms and the importance of their recognition to facilitate early identification of mental health disorders in primary care.

The use of Smartphones, Tablets and Social Networks has grown exponentially in recent years as a means of communicating, interacting, sharing and working collaboratively. Increasingly, young people are recognising that they are establishing a greater relationship with technologies for educational and leisure purposes, to meet new people, create new languages and even to become dependent on them. The aim of our study is to know, analyse and determine the degree of addiction of young people from twelve Spanish universities. To do this, we applied an adaptation of the "Social Media Addiction Scale-Student Form" (SMAS-SF, Sahin, 2018) which was answered by 1870 students from seven Autonomous Communities (Andalusia, Asturias, Castile-Leon, Catalonia, Galicia, Murcia and the Basque Country). The results obtained show significant differences between the young people of the different Autonomous Communities; moreover, the students do not perceive themselves as people addicted to technology and social networks.
