\nself-esteem

This study aims to explain the role of social media use and social comparison on self-esteem. The participants used in this study were 105 people who actively have social media and an age range of 18-34 years who were collected through purposive sampling technique. The instrument used in this research is The Instagram Intensity Scale, adapted from a study conducted by Ellison, Steineld, & Lampe (2007), The Questionnaire of the Iowa-Netherlands Comparison Orientation Measure proposed by Gibbons and Buunk (1999), and Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale (RSES). This study uses a linear correlation test (one tailed) which finds a correlation between variables using social media and social comparisons on self-esteem, but the correlation is low (.123).
