Facebook is used mostly by narcissists and those with low self-esteem, says a Canadian study.
The study extensively examined the online habits and personalities of 100 Facebook users aged 18 to 25 years old and found that individuals higher in narcissism and lower in self-esteem spent more time on the site and filled their pages with more self-promotional content. The study has been published in the journal Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking if you don’t believe me.
Facebook has more than 500 million users worldwide and is the world’s biggest social networking website, but it has been involved in a number of controversies.
A study earlier in the week showed that the grades of students who use FAcebook while they study, even if it is only in the background, are 20 percent lower on average than those of non-users.
