“…The results showed no impact of either posting selfies or receiving feedback on measures of self-esteem or positive or negative mood. These results conflict with much previous research which has indicated an association between selfie posting and reduced self-esteem (Burrow & Rainone, 2016;Fejfar & Hoyle, 2000) and mood (e.g. Fardouly et al, 2015;Richards et al, 2015).…”

“…This supports a hyper personal theory approach to social media (Gonzales & Hancock, 2011) indicating that optimal self presentation may be advantageous. It also reflects the potential benefits of feedback and is in line with sociometer theory (Leary & Baumeister, 2000) and both correlational and experimental research on the benefits of 'likes' (Alblooshi, 2015;Burrow & Rainone, 2016). The results from the present study also showed, however, that these benefits were only short lived.…”

“…For example, whilst self-surveillance may reduce self-esteem via objective self-awareness (Frederick et al, 2007), the repeated exposure to an optimal self-image in the selfie as suggested by hyper personal theory may be beneficial (Gonzales & Hancock, 2011). Some studies have also drawn upon sociometer theory (Leary & Baumeister, 2000) and addressed the impact of gaining feedback ('likes') on selfies and it has been suggested that this process may boost self-esteem if 'likes' are considered high (Burrow & Rainone, 2016), or high in comparison to others (Mascheroni et al, 2015) or reduce self-esteem if 'likes' are absent.…”

Social media, and particularly posting ‘selfies’ have become fully incorporated into young people’s lives. Research indicates that posting selfies may impact upon self esteem and that feedback in the form of ‘likes’ may change how young people feel about themselves. To date, however, most research has been cross sectional or qualitative limiting conclusions about causality. Further, it has taken place in non naturalistic environments, with no longer term follow up and limited outcome variables. This experimental study explored the impact of posting selfies and receiving feedback (‘likes’) on Instagram on broader aspects of the psychological well-being of young people. Participants (n = 59) aged 16-25 were randomly allocated to one of three conditions for a 7-day intervention (no selfie-posting; posting selfies without feedback; posting selfies with feedback) and completed measures at baseline, after the intervention and at one week follow up. ‘Likes’ were delivered through an app. The intervention had no impact on self-esteem or mood. Posting no selfies resulted in a greater improvement in appearance satisfaction over the study compared to posting selfies (regardless of feedback). In contrast, posting selfies with feedback resulted in a greater improvement in face satisfaction during the intervention although this dropped back to baseline by follow up. To conclude the impact of selfies may vary depending upon which outcome variable is measured and when.

“…45 In another empirical study, 102 college students who were asked to take a selfie were randomized to either of 3 conditions with different numbers of "likes" (average, above average and below average); those rated as having a greater sense of purpose in life based on measures from a validated scale had lower sensitivity to feedback (based on number of "likes") on their self-photograph posts. 46 A study that categorized participants by social comparison orientations ("abilitybased" versus "opinion-based") found that different orientations showed different emotional responses to being compared with others, which in turn was related to life satisfaction. 47 These early findings offer some insights for the individualized care of youth presenting with emotional and mental distress.…”

Evidence from a variety of cross-sectional, longitudinal and empirical studies implicate smartphone and social media use in the increase in mental distress, self-injurious behaviour and suicidality among youth; there is a dose-response relationship, and the effects appear to be greatest among girls.• Social media can affect adolescents' self-view and interpersonal relationships through social comparison and negative interactions, including cyberbullying; moreover, social media content often involves normalization and even promotion of self-harm and suicidality among youth.• High proportions of youth engage in heavy smartphone use and media multitasking, with resultant chronic sleep deprivation, and negative effects on cognitive control, academic performance and socioemotional functioning.

“…Ketika seorang public figure memiliki pengikut (followers) yang kuat baik itu di akun pribadinya maupun dalam realitas di luar daring, maka akan sangat mungkin para pengikut tersebut merespon secara positif unggahan yang terkait dengan public figure tersebut. Ini juga bisa terjadi karena dorongan massal, apabila satu materi yang diunggah telah direspon oleh banyak orang, maka netizen akan merespon dengan cara yang sama, karena dianggap konten tersebut menarik atau popular (Burrow & Rainone, 2017).…”

Abstract Consumer value is the basic fundamental of marketing communications. Promotional materials on media have to consider the value of consumer expectations, wishes, experiences, and perceptions. This means the product or service has to interact with consumers (need, expectation, experience, and perception). The emergence of new media becomes an alternative for marketers to promote goods or services to their target market. But the emergence of this new media in addition to being an opportunity also becomes a challenge in presenting the best consumer value. The purpose of this research is to find out the ways of creating the value of local tourism on social media. The researcher chooses the official account of Twitter of Government Tourism and Culture Office of West Java as an object of research. The focus of this research is promotional content on the official account of Twitter and consumer value creation. This research is content analysis.
