Resumo(s)
The rise of social media use in the last two decades has presented new opportunities and
challenges for its users. It’s integration into our daily habits is certainly not something to ignore.
Prior studies focused on the social media use impact in the western culture, and little to none
have been done in the Arab world. In this study, using population-based data from Tunisian
citizens, we studied the association of personality traits, depression, and anxiety to social media
behavior in 189 users. The findings highlight that extraverted, fun-seeking, and anxious users
tend to spend more time on social media, while conscious people spend less time online. Our
study also suggests that extraverted people, with low agreeableness use social network sites to
communicate rather than using them for entertainment.
