The aim of this study was to examine the role played by the extroversion and social self-concept in the relationship between internet addiction and social media burnout. 200 individuals from the Brazilian general population between the ages of 18 and 45 participated and responded to the Compulsive Internet Use Scale, the Social Media Burnout Scale, the Multidimensional Self-Concept Scale, and a scale of reduced markers for personality assessment. The data were analyzed with the SPSS software. Results showed positive and statistically significant correlations between internet addiction and social media burnout, as well as negative correlations between both variables with social self-concept and extroversion. Furthermore, social self-concept had a significant indirect effect on the relationship between Internet addiction and social media burnout by appearing to mediate this relationship. This study contributes to the endorsement of the literature on the subject and prompts consideration of interventions needed by psychologists to promote social skills and appropriate internet use.
本研究的目的是考察外向性和社会自我概念在网络成瘾与社交媒体倦怠关系中所起的作用。200名年龄在18至45岁之间的巴西普通民众参与了研究，并对强迫性网络使用量表、社交媒体倦怠量表、多维自我概念量表以及一个人格评估简化指标量表进行了作答。数据使用SPSS软件进行分析。结果显示，网络成瘾与社交媒体倦怠之间存在正相关且具有统计学意义，同时这两个变量与社会自我概念和外向性之间存在负相关。此外，社会自我概念似乎通过介导这种关系，对网络成瘾与社交媒体倦怠之间的关系产生了显著的间接影响。本研究有助于支持该主题的文献，并促使人们考虑心理学家为促进社交技能和合理使用互联网而需要采取的干预措施。
