“…Therefore, SNSs are at least partly hedonic systems (Ernst et al 2013a;Van der Heijden 2004) that provide positive feelings and experiences for their users in the form of Perceived Enjoyment (Ernst et al 2013b;Hu et al 2011;Sledgianowski and Kulviwat 2008 Perceived Risk, in general, can alter an individual's feelings (Yüksel and Yüksel 2007). Specifically, due to the perceived negative consequences associated with it, Perceived Risk causes negative feelings such as anxiety, discomfort and uncertainty (Dowling and Staelin 1994;Featherman 2001).…”

“…Various studies in multiple contexts have consistently confirmed that Perceived Enjoyment is a central antecedent of the Actual System Use of hedonic technologies (e.g., Van der Heijden 2004). Indeed, the findings of Ernst et al (2013b), Hu et al (2011), and Sledgianowski and Kulviwat (2008) suggested that Perceived Enjoyment is an important influence factor of SNSs' Actual System Use.…”

Some studies suggest that Perceived Privacy Risk exerts no influence on the Actual System Use of a Social Network Site. However, the potential indirect relationships between Perceived Privacy Risk and Actual System Use through its central antecedents have so far been overlooked. In this paper, we postulate that Perceived Privacy Risk exerts a negative influence on the Perceived Enjoyment of Social Network Sites, one of the central antecedents of Actual System Use. After surveying 415 students and applying a structural equation modeling approach, we confirmed an indirect negative effect of Perceived Privacy Risk on Actual System Use through Perceived Enjoyment. Overall, our study suggests that SNS service providers need to actively manage people's perceptions of privacy risk.

“…(2002), mladostniki, ki imajo dobre odnose z vrstniki, uporabljajo splet za iskanje priložnosti za dodatno komunikacijo z njimi, s čimer lahko razložimo pozitivno povezanost med sociometričnim položajem v razredu in na Facebooku. Socialna interakcija je eden od pogostejših vzrokov, da ljudje uporabljajo medije (Blumler in Katz, 1974), še posebej pa je socialna interakcija ena od primarnih motivov za spletno komunikacijo pri mladostnikih, saj ti razširjajo svoje interese navzven in čutijo potrebo po povezanosti s svojimi prijatelji (Lee, 2009;Ernst, Pfeiffer in Rothlauf, 2013).…”

Socialno sprejetost smo merili na dva načina, in sicer kot socialno preferenčnost in kot sociometrični položaj. Preverjali smo, ali so intenzivnost uporabe Facebooka, čas, preživet na Facebooku, in socialna preferenčnost v razredu pomembni pozitivni napovedniki socialne preferenčnosti na Facebooku. Dodatno smo preverili, ali se sociometrični položaj v razredu ujema s sociometričnim položajem na Facebooku. Za zbiranje podatkov smo uporabili Lestvico intenzivnosti uporabe Facebooka FBI in dve različici sociometrične preizkušnje; prva se je nanašala na sociometrični položaj učenca v razredu, druga pa na sociometrični položaj učenca na Facebooku. Vzorec je zajemal 188 učencev gimnazije, od tega 117 žensk (57,4 %) in 71 moških (34,8 %), njihova povprečna starost je bila 17,06 leta. Rezultati so pokazali, da je socialna preferenčnost v razredu pomemben napovednik socialne preferenčnosti na Facebooku in da sta sociometrični položaj v razredu in sociometrični položaj na Facebooku zmerno pozitivno povezana. Te ugotovitve so pomembne predvsem za načrtovanje preventivnih ukrepov, vezanih na učence, ki so zavrnjeni v razredu in na spletu, ter na učence, ki so žrtve nasilja. Abstract: The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between social acceptance in classroom and social acceptance on Facebook. In this study social acceptance was operationalized as social preference and as sociometric status. First, we examined whether intensity of Facebook usage, time spent on Facebook, and social preference in classroom predict social preference on Facebook. Second, we examined the relationship between sociometric status in classroom and sociometric status on Facebook. We used Facebook intensity scale (FBI) and two versions of sociometric test (with regard to peer relations in the classroom and on Facebook). The participants were 188 high school students, 117 females (57.4%) and 71 males (34.8%), between 16 and 19 years of age. The results have shown that social preference in classroom significantly predicts social preference on Facebook and that there is a positive moderate correlation between sociometric status in classroom and sociometric status on Facebook. These results are important for implementation of preventive strategies for students, who are rejected and are victims of bullying.

“…As a result of this, the feeling of belonging has been identified as an important factor that motivates people's behavior. Indeed, in the media usage context, it has been shown that Perceived Belonging, i.e., the degree to which a person feels connected to and accepted by others [5,16,27,35,41], can influence the frequency of people's media usage [15,16].…”

“…The Need to Belong theory suggests that every person has, to differing extents, a fundamental need to connect with others and be accepted by them [e.g., 5] and the Uses and Gratifications Theory (U&G) postulates that individuals' repeated usage of media is determined by their needs and wants, which are directly linked to their ultimate goal of gratification [33]. Drawing from these two theories, we believe that Perceived Belonging, that is, the degree to which a person feels connected to and accepted by other individuals [5,16,27,35,41], is an important positive influence factor of MMORPG usage and we seek to examine whether this influence is a direct influence on MMORPG usage, an indirect influence on MMORPG usage through Perceived Enjoyment, or both.…”
