Gerçek Hayat ve Sanal Yaşam: Büyük Beş Kişilik Özellikleri, Facebook Kullanımı ve Boş Zaman Etkinlikleri Katılımı

Facebook (FB) kullanımı tüm dünyadaki tüm nesiller arasında yaygındır ve popülerdir. Bu çalışma FB kullanımı, boş zaman etkinliği katılımı ve kişilik özellikleri arasındaki bağlantıları araştırmaktadır. Daha eski kullanıcıların FB kullanımı, daha genç kullanıcılarınkinden daha yoğun çıkmıştır ve FB kullananların yaşlarının gittikçe arttığı ve yaşlandığı doğrulanmıştır. Sık sık ve daha uzun saatler FB kullanıcıları akrabalarını ve arkadaşlarını görmek için daha az zaman bulmuştur. Fakat aynı zamanda, akrabaları ve arkadaşları ile daha fazla, FB ile daha az zaman geçirenler, çok sayıda FB arkadaşı olanlardır. Bunun nedeni çevrimiçi ve çevrimdışı arkadaşlık arasındaki sıkı bağlantı olabilir. Dışadönüklerin ve kolay hemfikir olanların çok sayıda FB arkadaşı var, ancak çevrimiçi FB'ye bağlanmak yerine akrabaları ve arkadaşlarıyla vakit geçirmeyi tercih etmekteler. Sonuç olarak, yoğun FB kullanımı daha az boş zaman etkinliği katılımı ile sonuçlanmıştır.

Real Life vs. Virtual Life: Big Five Personality Traits, Facebook Use and Leisure Activity Engagement

The popularity of using Facebook (FB) is widespread among all generations all around the world. This study investigates connections between FB use, leisure activity engagement, and personality traits. Older users’ FB usage was more intensive than younger users’, confirming that FB is aging as well as its users’ age. Frequent and longer hours FB users found less time to see their relatives and friends. But at the same time, those who spend more time with their relatives and friends and less time with FB are the ones who had a high number of FB friends. This may be because of a firm connection between online and offline friendship. Extraverts and agreeable people had a high number of FB friends, but preferred spending times with their relatives and friends instead of being connected to FB online. Consequently, intensive FB usage resulted in less leisure activity engagement.
