“…The analysis was done with the help of Kendall's Tau and Spearman's correlation coefficient, both of which were observed to be statistically significant at 0.24 and 0.31, respectively. The results are very much similar to the research conducted by Masur et al [15], Xu, Wang, & David [16], which showed that distractions like social media (Facebook, etc.) create challenges to self-control, students who use Facebook frequently tend to procrastinate more than non-habitual Facebook using students [17].…”

“…Intrinsic needs have been described as needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness [59]. It has been argued that expected gratification from media use might lead to excessive and addictive use [60]. Studies based on uses and gratifications approach [61] suggested that motivations including seeking a virtual community, entertainment, relationship maintenance [62], seeking excitement, escapism [60,63], self-presentation and relation building [64] might be associated with problematic and compulsive Internet and FB use.…”

“…Studies based on uses and gratifications approach [61] suggested that motivations including seeking a virtual community, entertainment, relationship maintenance [62], seeking excitement, escapism [60,63], self-presentation and relation building [64] might be associated with problematic and compulsive Internet and FB use. Our findings were consistent with the idea that thwarted autonomy need satisfaction might be associated with presenting oneself at FB without external pressure and escape from daily life among adolescents too [60].…”

OBJECTIVE: In the last decade, using social network sites (SNSs) has grown and become an integral part of daily routine for adolescents. As known, ADHD is a major public health problem for all addiction types, including the Internet and SNSs addiction. Our aim was to examine the effect of ADHD, impulsivity types, using motivations, internalizing and externalizing symptoms on Facebook (FB) overuse and FB addiction among adolescents. METHODS: Participants were recruited from ADHD and non-ADHD adolescents who were applied to the child and adolescent psychiatry and have an active FB account. We used FB Use and Motivations Form, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), Bergen FB Addiction Scale (BFAS) and Conners-Wells' Adolescent Self-Report Scale-Long form (CASS:L). RESULTS: Our results indicated that ADHD adolescents have more fake FB accounts, have their own accounts for longer time, are using FB for more motivation types and FB overuse is more frequent than in non-ADHD counterparts. According to the degree of FB use, we have shown that adolescents with FB overuse behaviour have more externalizing symptoms and have higher CASS:L and Barrat impulsivity scores than others. Risk factors for FB overuse are: having a fake FB account and having higher ADHD index scores; risk factors for FB addiction are: higher attentional impulsivity, higher conduct problems scores and higher ADHD index scores. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study have improved our understanding about the risk factors of a new behavioural addiction type among adolescents. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…However, whilst Masur et al (2014) investigated general Facebook use, they did not investigate PFU. This limits the conclusions that can be drawn regarding escapism and addiction within PFU, indicating a gap in the literature.…”
