The present research is focused on the study of relationship between
self-esteem and personality trait narcissism with Facebook addiction.
The Total number of research participants was 355, 124 participants
were men and231 participants were women. The age range of the
people who participated in the study was 14 – 45 years (Mean Age
=23.9). Participants who had a Facebook account and were at least
matriculate were included. Results showed that participants with low
self-esteem were more prone to Facebook addiction than those with
high self-esteem and those with higher narcissism trait were more
prone to Facebook addiction in comparison to those with low
narcissism. The results further established that 15.1% of variance in
face book addiction is explained by narcissism and 12.2 % of variance
in Facebook addiction is because of self-esteem. Gender had no
significant effect on the level of Facebook addiction.
