Abstract
This study was conducted to examine SNS addiction proneness and interpersonal satisfaction among undergraduate students and the relationships between these two variables, as well as to establish baseline data for appropriate intervention of SNS addiction prevention. The participants of this study were 316 undergraduate students in D and K city, and data were collected between June 30 and July 30, 2017. Data were collected by a self-administered online survey and analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-tests, and Pearson's correlation coefficients using SPSS. The results showed that SNS addiction proneness and interpersonal satisfaction were negatively correlated (r=-0.57, p<0.01), indicating students with higher SNS addiction had lower interpersonal satisfaction. There were no significant differences in SNS addiction proneness and interpersonal satisfaction by gender (t=0.05, p=0.963), number of SNS networks (t=0.66, p=0.513), or number of SNS-only networks (t=-1.24, p=0.216). Students who used SNS for data collection showed significantly higher interpersonal satisfaction (t=3.02, p=0.030); however, there was no significant differences in SNS addiction proneness among purposes for using SNS (t=0.39, p=.759). The results of this study will be useful baseline data for developing an intervention to improve interpersonal satisfaction and prevent SNS addiction among undergraduate students.
