Abstract:
The study was conducted to the BS Psychology students of the Lyceum of Subic Bay during the
academic year 2022-2023. This study investigated the relationship between social media use and the
self, focusing on the five key areas of the self: self- confidence, identity, competence, self-control,
and belongingness. The purpose of this study was to explore whether social media use has a
significant relationship with these said key areas.The study employed a quantitative research method.
A survey intended to measure the five key areas of self and social media usage was administered to
the sample of participants, consisting of the entirety of the BS Psychology students of Lyceum of
Subic Bay during the academic year of 2022-2023. The findings of the study revealed that social
media use has no significant relationship with self-confidence, identity, and self-control, except for
belongingness. Belongingness was found to have a significant relationship with social media use.
This suggests that students who use social media more frequently may feel a greater sense of
belongingness than those who use it less often.
