The research performed the structural equation model analysis to determine the relations between psychological well-being, Instagram addiction and values in university students and also to test the relations between these variables. As a result, it has been found that there is a positive significant correlation between participants’ values and their psychological well-being; a non-significant correlation between their values and their Instagram addiction and finally a negative significant correlation between their psychological well-being and their Instagram addiction.
