“…Although college students may use the Internet as a tool to develop their self-identity, IA may limit real-world interaction and therefore slow the development of self-identity [56]. In addition, exposure to different identities in online activities may exacerbate their self-identity confusion [60]. Therefore, college students require help with self-identity confusion to develop adaptive ways to interact with others and develop interpersonal relationships in order to improve their self-identity and consequently reduce their dependence on the Internet.…”

Internet addiction (IA) has become a major public health problem among college students. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between self-identity confusion and IA and the mediating effects of psychological inflexibility and experiential avoidance (PI/EA) indicators in college students. A total of 500 college students (262 women and 238 men) were recruited. Their levels of self-identity were evaluated using the Self-Concept and Identity Measure. Their levels of PI/EA were examined using the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II. The severity of IA was assessed using the Chen Internet Addiction Scale. The relationships among self- identity, PI/EA, and IA were examined using structural equation modeling. The severity of self-identity confusion was positively associated with both the severity of PI/EA and the severity of IA. In addition, the severity of PI/EA indicators was positively associated with the severity of IA. These results demonstrated that the severity of self-identity confusion was related to the severity of IA, either directly or indirectly. The indirect relationship was mediated by the severity of PI/EA. Self-identity confusion and PI/EA should be taken into consideration by the community of professionals working on IA. Early detection and intervention of self-identity confusion and PI/EA should be the objectives for programs aiming to lower the risk of IA.

“…Valkenburg and Peter () argue that consumers who spend considerable time online, might develop different personalities to facilitate their various online interactions on social networking sites. Since the different personalities are switched on and off depending on the online context rather than being integrated, consumers who spend considerable time on social networking sites seem to experience diminished SCC (Sharif & Khanekharab, ).…”

This paper explores the potential negative side‐effects of the sustainability movement in societies with large segments of materialistic consumers. Across three studies, there is evidence that a conflict between materialistic and green value profiles can arise in consumers. When it arises, it seems to be related to diminished well‐being. Study 1 shows that consumers with a higher value conflict (VC) experienced higher levels of stress. Consumers with higher degrees of stress then reported lower satisfaction with life. Study 2 reveals the underlying process by which this value conflict affects well‐being. The results suggest that the value conflict is related to a reduced clarity of consumers’ self‐concept (SCC), which in turn is related to increased levels of stress and a lower satisfaction with life. Results of Study 3 show that preference for consistency (PfC) serves as a boundary condition to this effect. The negative effect of VC on SCC is most pronounced among consumers high in PfC, while low PfC consumers seem to suffer less from the negative consequences of a conflict between green and materialistic values. Conceptual and public‐policy implications of these results are discussed.

Çevrimiçi kompulsif satın alma davranışıyla ilgili ise çok az sayıda çalışmaya rastlanmıştır (Sharif ve Khanekharab, 2017;Sharif ve Yeoh, 2018;Lee ve Park, 2008).

“…Her yirmi kişiden biri yaşamının bir döneminde kompulsif satın alma davranışı nedeniyle iş ve sosyal yaşamlarının sekteye uğraması sonucu bir takım takım sıkıntılar yaşamaktadır (Maraz, Griffiths ve Demetrovics, 2016). Yapılan araştırmalar bir çeşit internet bağımlılığı olarak da değerlendirilen sosyal medya kullanımı ile ani ve kompulsif satın alma davranışları arasındaki pozitif ilişkiye vurgu yapmaktadır (Lejoyeux ve Weinstein, 2010;Sharif ve Khanekharab, 2017). Diğer taraftan kompulsif satın alma ve anlık satın alma hakkında çok sayıda araştırma olmakla birlikte, doğrudan çevrimiçi kompulsif ve çevrimiçi anlık satın alma davranışlarının anlaşılmasını amaçlayan ve internet bağımlılığı ile olan ilişkisini açıklamaya yönelik çok az sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır.…”
