摘要
Introduction. - The use of social media can have both beneficial and detrimental effects on individuals, and some personal variables have been shown to have a potential impact on this phenomenon. However, very few studies have identified "which individuals" might be positively or negatively affected by social media use. Objectives. - The present study aimed to (1) identify profiles of social media use among Facebook users, and then (2) compare these profiles with regard to some personality and (both positive and negative) well-being variables. Method. - A cluster analysis was performed on a sample of 321 young adults. Results. - Three user profiles were brought out and were found to be differentially related to personality and well-being variables. Conclusion. - The results suggest diverse roles of social media use for different types of users. (C) 2019 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
