Facebook Activity and Perceived Attractiveness - Part 2
07 November 2017
Previous research has found that people use social media for multiple purposes, including to promote oneself to others. We are interested in investigating whether this self-promotion works- are those who use social media intensively perceived as more attractive by others. We are also interested in the role of personality (namely, the Dark Triad; Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy) in the intensity of social media use, and its relationship to perceived attractiveness.
