Sosyal ağlar, arkadaşlık ilişkilerinin vazgeçilmez bir
parçası olmuştur. Özellikle gençler yeni arkadaşlıklar kurmak ve iletişim kanallarını
genişletmek amacıyla sosyal ağları yoğun bir şekilde kullanmaktadır. Bu
çalışmanın amacı, bireylerin genel Facebook kullanım alışkanlıklarının yanısıra
sosyal ağlardaki arkadaşlıkların başlamasını ve sonlandırılmasını etkileyen
faktörleri ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda web tabanlı anket
uygulanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, kullanıcıların büyük çoğunluğu Facebook’ta
kardeşleri ile arkadaşlık kurmasına rağmen, ebeveynleri ile arkadaş olan
kullanıcıların azınlıkta olduğuna ulaşılmıştır. Bunun yanısıra, ebeveynleri ile
arkadaş olmak, kullanıcıların paylaşımlarını daha dikkatli yapmasına sebep
olduğu görülmüştür.  Katılımcıların
neredeyse tamamı ırkçı ve cinsiyetçi paylaşımlar yapmama konusunda hemfikirdir.
Arkadaşlıktan çıkarma kararını etkileyen paylaşım türleri ise sırasıyla;
ilgisiz, sık yapılan ve politik olan paylaşımlardır.  Katılımcıların cinsiyetleri, sınıf ve gelir
düzeyleri ile tanımadıkları kişilerden gelen arkadaşlık isteğini kabul etme
davranışları arasında bir ilişki bulunamamıştır. Bu araştırma ilgili yazının
genişletilmesi konusunda katkı sağlamaktadır. Araştırmanın imaları, sonuç ve
öneriler kısmında tartışılmıştır.

this purpose, a web-based questionnaire was applied. At the end of the
research, although the majority of the users were friends with their brothers
on Facebook, it was found that the users who were friends with their parents
were in the minority. Besides, it has been seen that making friends with their
parents makes their sharing more careful. Almost all of the participants agree
that they do not make racist and sexist shares. The sharing types that affect

sharing. There was no relationship between the gender, class and income levels
