Students' self-perception has been attributable to their exposure to social media networks. Previous studies have concentrated more on social media usage and social media addiction without considering their influence on self-perception. This study, therefore, examined the influence of social media utilisation and addiction on self-perception of undergraduate students in University of Ibadan, Nigeria. The study adopted the survey method of ex-post-facto design. Multistage sampling procedure was adopted to select 907 undergraduate students from 7 Faculties in University of Ibadan. a. A questionnaire named " Social Media Utilisation, Addiction and Self-Perception Questionnaire " (r=0.77) was used for data collection. Seven research questions were answered in the study. Facebook (751 or 90.2%) and Twitter (646 or 77.6%) were the most commonly accessible social media networks while meeting with friends (651 or 78.2%), getting news (566 or 67.9%), communication (554 or 66.5%) and online learning (450 or 54.0%) were major purposes for social media usage among the undergraduate students. Low level of social media addiction and positive self-perception were also established among the undergraduate students. Self perception is significantly positively related with social media utilisation social (r = .181, p<0.01) and social media addiction (r = .195, p<0.01). The relative contribution of social media utilisation and social media addiction to self perception were (β = .111, t = 2.852) and (β = .140, t = 3.569) respectively. Social media utilisation and addiction to social media relatively contributed significantly to University of Ibadan undergraduates' self-perception. __________________________________________________________________________________________

Considering that social media addiction is probably the most recent type of technology addiction, the present study was designed based on the six components suggested by Griffiths (2013). Toward the main purpose of the study, the "Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale" was adapted to social media addiction and translated into Turkish. After the validation process, it was administered to a total of 700 students; of them 397 were high school students and 303 were university students. The data collection instrument included 18 five-point Likert-type items in six categories, along with 5 structured items regarding demographics of the respondents. In addition to the original findings of the present study, similar research on social media addiction in some other countries were examined for comparisons. The results showed that both university students and high school students have a moderate level of addiction to social media. Being a university or high school student does not make any difference on the level of social media addiction. However, significant differences were found regarding gender, duration of use, department at the university, and type of high school. Finally, the results of the study show certain similarities and a few differences with the results of the studies conducted in other countries.

A Study on Social Media AddictionThis study aimed to investigate the level of social media addiction among university students. The sample group comprised a total of 238 participants, 56.7% of whom are female and 43.3% of whom are male, enrolled at Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa Faculty of Sports Sciences. The data were collected using a personal information form and the 5-point Likert type "Social Media Addiction Scale" developed by Tutgun-Ünal and Deniz (2015), including 41 items and four sub-dimensions. Descriptive statistical methods, including percentage and frequency, were employed in the data analysis. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was carried out to check whether the data were normally distributed, suggesting a normal distribution. Independent sample t-test for bivariate data and one-way ANOVA test for more than two variables were also performed. The research findings indicated a significant difference between the "Occupation" sub-dimension based on the age of the participants, while no significant difference was observed between gender, grade level, and the level of daily social media use. In this context, social media addiction in young individuals varies according to the sociodemographic characteristics of the individual. As a result, social media addiction can be reduced by determining the demographic characteristics of young individuals.
