Özet

Günümüzde internet teknolojilerinin çok hızlı bir şekilde gelişmesi sayesinde milyonlarca insan bilgisayarlar vasıtasıyla yaratılan sanal ortamlarda önemli ölçüde zaman geçirmektedir. Bu araştırma kapsamında sanal ortamlarda zaman geçirmenin gerçek hayatta kişisel ilişkiler üstündeki etkilerinin olup olmadığı araştırılmış ve incelenmiştir. Bu araştırma kapsamında, Goffmanın kendiliğin sunumu teorisinden hareketle dünyanın en popüler sanal ortamı olan secondlife.comdaki üyeler arasındaki kişisel ilişkiler incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın yazarı, şahsen secondlife.com sitesine üye olmuş ve bu ortamda çok fazla zaman geçiren kişilerle hem secondlife.com üzerinden hem de ulaşabildiği avatarların gerçek hayattaki kimlikleri ile yüz yüze olmak üzere iletişime geçmiş ve görüşmeler yapmıştır.
