Males And Females

In recent years, males and females have demonstrated fairly equal amounts of internet usage, but females have demonstrated higher usage of social media sites. These observed differences served as the impetus for the current study. A survey was conducted in early 2010 among college students to assess whether differences still occur between males and females, and specifically with regard to social media usage. In order to assess these phenomena, the Social Media Affinity Scale was created and deployed. Results of the study showed that, among the students surveyed, no significant differences exist between males and females in their internet usage, social media usage, and also beliefs about social media sites in general. Given that students have overwhelmingly adopted social media, we propose that there is now an opportunity to leverage social media in college courses to deliver content and engage students in ways not previously possible.

Adolescence is a crucial period where an individual undergoes significant physical, social, cognitive, behavioural and emotional changes. The covid pandemic which turned the entire world upside down has brought a significant change in the rhythm of life. When the whole world came to a standstill on the declaration of lockdown, the social media got a transition as a coping agent for relieving stress among the teens. The users and usage time of social media increased drastically. An online survey is used for the purpose of collecting data from among the school and college students to understand the changing trends in the social media usage and their impacts on the sleep and sleeping patterns of the teens. The study also analyses the increase in the number of users during the lock down. A sample of 1631 subjects is taken for the conduct of the study. The study reveals that, even though the users and usage time of social media increased considerably, social media usage has no significant impact on sleep.

Despite the steep increase in Facebook Stories users, there is scant research on this topic. This study compared the associations of frequency of Stories update, frequency of news feed updates, time spent reading Stories, and time spent reading news feeds, with regard to social media addiction, narcissism, and positive affect in college students. We recruited a sample of 316 college students from Taiwan. The analytical results show that Facebook Stories are more addictive and provoke more positive affect than conventional news feeds. Moreover, only usage behaviors associated with Stories predict narcissism. This study also found that the prediction of news feeds with regard to addiction, narcissism, and positive affect also seems to be diminishing and is being replaced by those of Stories. Future studies on the psychological consequences and predictors of social media usage should regard Stories as a crucial variable.
