Abstract

This study was conducted on social network users aged 12-15 who freely use the opportunities offered by social networks with the purpose of establishing new relationships or maintaining their existing relationships. The purpose of the study is to determine the study group’s perception on the effects of social networks and whether their perceptions affect their usage purposes. In this study, the data was collected via two scales that were developed in the scope of the study. Accordingly, it was concluded that the usage purposes did not change according to sex, however; usages did change according to variables such as age, number of used sites and frequency of usage. Some significant relationships were found between the users’ perceptions on the effects of using social networks and the purposes thereof.

Year 2013, Volume: 28 Issue: 28-3, 137 - 150, 01.06.2013

Abstract

Bu çalışma çevrimiçi sosyal ağlarda, ağların sunduğu olanakları yeni ilişkiler kurmak ya da mevcut ilişkilerini sürdürmek için özgürce kullanan 12-15 yaş grubu kullanıcıların, sosyal ağların etkilerine ilişkin algıları ve bu algıların kullanım amaçlarını etkileyip etkilemediğini belirlemek üzere gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmada veriler araştırma kapsamında geliştirilen iki ölçekle toplanmıştır. Kullanım amaçlarının; cinsiyete bağlı olarak değişmediği; yaş, kullanılan site sayısı ve kullanım sıklığı değişkenlerine bağlı olaraksa değişim gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Kullanıcıların sosyal ağların etkilerine ilişkin algılarıyla, sosyal ağları kullanma amaçları arasında ise bazı anlamlı ilişkiler saptanmıştır.
