Üniversite Öğrencilerinde Sosyal Medya Bağımlılığının Beden İmajı ve Fiziksel Aktivite ile İlişkisinin İncelenmesi

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinde sosyal medya bağımlılığının, beden imajı ve fiziksel aktivite ile ilişkisini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Toplam 301 (210 kadın ve 91) lisans öğrencisi katıldı. Sonuç ölçümleri için Sosyal Medya Bağımlılığı Anketi-Öğrenci Formu (SMAS-SF), Sosyal Medya Yoğunluk Ölçeği (SMIS), Beden İmajı Ölçeği (BAS) ve Fiziksel Aktivite Ölçeği-2 (PAS-2) kullanıldı. Bulgular: Cinsiyete göre sonuçların karşılaştırılmasında erkek öğrencilerin fiziksel aktivite düzeyi kız öğrencilerden daha yüksek saptandı (p<0,05). SMAS-SF ile BAS arasında orta düzeyde korelasyon vardı (r=-0,401, p<0,001). Ek olarak, SMAS-SF ile PAS-2 (r=-0,357, p<0,001), SMIS ile BAS (r=-0,273, p<0,01) ve PAS-2 (r=-0,170, p=0,003) arasında zayıf bir korelasyon gözlemlendi. SMAS-SF, BAS'daki varyansın %13,8'ini ve PAS-2'deki varyansın %9,3'ünü açıkladı (p<0,001). SMIS, BAS'daki varyansın %4,9'unu ve PAS-2'deki varyansın %1,2'sini açıkladı (p<0,001). Sonuç: Genç yetişkinlerde sosyal medyanın aşırı kullanımı ve sosyal medya bağımlılığı beden imajını ve fiziksel aktiviteyi olumsuz etkileyebilir.

Investigating the Relationship Between Social Media Addiction, Body Image, and Physical Activity among University Students

Öz

Objective: This study aims to examine the relationship between social media addiction, body image, and physical activity in university students. Material and Methods: A total of 301 undergraduate students (210 females and 91 males) participated in the study. The Social Media Addiction Scale-Student Form (SMAS-SF), Social Media Intensity Scale (SMIS), Body Appreciation Scale (BAS), and Physical Activity Scale-2 (PAS-2) were used as outcome measures. Results: In the comparison of the results by gender, the physical activity level of male students was found to be higher than that of female students (p<0.05). A moderate negative correlation was found between SMAS-SF and BAS (r=-0.401, p<0.001). Additionally, a weak negative correlations were observed between SMAS-SF and PAS-2 (r=-0.357, p<0.001), SMIS and BAS (r=-0.273, p<0.01), as well as SMIS and PAS-2 (r=-0.170, p=0.003). SMAS-SF explained 13.8% of the variance in BAS, and 9.3% of the variance in PAS-2 (p<0.001). SMIS explained 4.9% of the variance in BAS and 1.2% of the variance in PAS-2 (p<0.001). Conclusion: Excessive use of social media and social media addiction in young adults can adversely affect body image and physical activity.
