Facebook is one the most popular social networking sites in the world. The social aspect and perceiving oneself in the context of relationships seem to be crucial in the analysis of Facebook use. In recent years the number of Facebook users has been increasing, which is related to the problem of Facebook intrusion. Machiavellianism and selected interdependence agency indicators (conformity, relatedness, and autonomy) are associated with social functioning, which is an important aspect of Facebook intrusion. The aim of the study was to check how Machiavelianism and the interdependent agency indicators mentioned above affect Facebook intrusion and whether Facebook intrusion decreases satisfaction with life. The participants in the online study were 715 Polish Facebook users. We administered the Facebook Intrusion Scale, Conformity, Relatedness, and Autonomy Scales, and the Satisfaction With Life Scale. The results show that the selected interdependence agency indicators predict Facebook intrusion. Our results revealed that a high level of Machiavellianism was related to a high level of Facebook intrusion in women. They also show that conformity is positively and autonomy negatively related to Facebook intrusion and that Facebook decreases reduces satisfaction with life. The presented research thus contributes to knowledge about Facebook usage patterns.
脸书是世界上最受欢迎的社交网络平台之一。社交方面和在人际关系背景下感知自己似乎是分析脸书使用情况的关键。近年来,脸书用户数量不断增加,这与脸书入侵问题有关。马基雅维利主义和选择的相互依存代理指标(从众、关联性和自主性)与社交功能有关,这是脸书入侵的一个重要方面。本研究的目的是检查马基雅维利主义和上述相互依存的代理指标如何影响脸书入侵,以及脸书入侵是否会降低生活满意度。该在线研究的参与者是 715 名波兰脸书用户。我们使用了脸书入侵量表、从众、关联性和自主性量表以及生活满意度量表。结果表明,选择的相互依存代理指标可以预测脸书入侵。我们的研究结果表明,女性的马基雅维利主义水平较高与脸书入侵程度较高有关。研究还表明,从众与脸书入侵呈正相关,自主性与脸书入侵呈负相关,脸书会降低生活满意度。因此,所呈现的研究有助于了解脸书的使用模式。
