Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

45.2K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Public Health
    • Digital Health

    Background:

    • Extensive research links problematic Internet use to psychological well-being.
    • Limited studies have explored the connection between problematic Internet use and physical health outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between problematic Internet use and physical health in a college student population.
    • To determine if problematic Internet use is associated with poorer physical health indicators.

    Main Methods:

    • A sample of 133 college students completed online questionnaires.
    • Assessed problematic Internet use using the Problematic Internet Use Questionnaire (PIUQ).
    • Evaluated physical health using the SF-36v2 Health Survey.

    Main Results:

    • Problematic Internet use was significantly associated with poorer physical health.
    • This association remained significant independently of the daily hours spent online.
    • Findings align with existing, though limited, research on this topic.

    Conclusions:

    • Problematic Internet use is a potential risk factor for adverse physical health outcomes in college students.
    • Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms behind this relationship.
    • Study limitations necessitate cautious interpretation of preliminary findings.
