Türkiye genelinde aktif sosyal medya kullanan 836 bireysel yatırımcıdan elde edilen veriler frekans analizi ve Ki-kare testleri ile analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, Telegram’ın yatırımcılar arasında en sık kullanılan üçüncü platform olduğunu ve sosyal medya temelli pay senedi içeriklerinin yatırım kararları üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkiye sahip bulunduğunu göstermektedir. Yatırımcıların büyük çoğunluğunun bu içerikleri getiri elde etme amacıyla takip ettiği; etkinin cinsiyet, yaş, gelir ve eğitim düzeyine göre farklılaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Erkek yatırımcıların daha aktif alım-satım davranışı sergilediği, orta yaş grubunun ise daha bilinçli kararlar aldığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, yatırım kararlarının rasyonel olmayan etkilerden etkilendiği ve Telegram kaynaklı bilgilerin davranışsal önyargıları güçlendirdiği ortaya konmuştur.</p></abstract>
