Özet

Teknolojinin gelişmesiyle birlikte sosyal medya popüler hale gelmiş ve günlük hayatta yaygın olarak kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Özellikle akıllı telefon kullanımının artması ve internet bağlantısının iyileştirilmesi, sosyal medya kullanımını her geçen gün daha da arttırmıştır. Sosyal medya kullanıcılarının kişilik özellikleri ve yaşamdan elde ettikleri doyumlar ile sosyal medya araçlarının seçimi, kullanım biçimleri ve sıklığı arasında ilişki vardır. Bu nedenle bu çalışma sosyal medya kullanım motivasyonlarının kişilik özellikleri ve yaşam doyumu açısından incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında 385 kişiden çevrimiçi anket tekniğiyle elde edilen veriler analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda sosyal medya kullanıcılarının özellikle nevrotik kişilik özelliğinin sosyal medya kullanım motivasyonları ve yaşam doyumu üzerinde anlamlı etkisinin olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.Anahtar Kelimeler: Sosyal Medya, Sosyal Medya Motivasyonları, Kişilik, Yaşam DoyumuJEL Sınıflandırması: M30, M31
