Abstract AR
و مع ذلك، فإن استخدام وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي يسبب العديد من الآثار النفسية السلبية مثل زيادة المقارنات الاجتماعية و الغيرة و الاكتئاب و القلق والتوتر نتيجة التعرض لآراء و أفكار متناقضة.
للمساهمة في هذه المناقشة، نحاول تقديم رؤية كاملة لهذه الآثار النفسية خلال سنوات دراستنا و التي تساعد في الوصول إلى نموذج نظري لشرح كيفية تأثير SNS على الجوانب النفسية للمستخدمين.
Abstract EN
The rapid increase in the use of social networking sites (SNS) has drawn attention to the psychological effects of these sites on users.
Through a brief review of 119 Arab and western studies from 2011 to 2020, the results indicated that SNS help users in getting rid of psychological unity and improve their self-esteem.
Moreover, SNS help them in increasing the sense of self-confidence, belonging to the society and feeling love, acceptance and appreciation as a result of their interaction on SNS.
However, the use of SNS causes many negative psychological effects such as increasing social comparisons, jealousy, depression, anxiety and stress, as a result of exposure to contradictory opinions and ideas.
To contribute to this discussion, we attempt to present a complete vision of these psychological effects during our study years which help in reaching a theoretical model to explain how SNS affect the psychological aspects of users.
