Social networking is a global phenomenon that has redefined not only how individuals interact with each other, but also how individuals perceive and conceptualize themselves. Social networking has also revolutionized how people present themselves to the outside world. This study sought specifically to gain a better understanding of the relationship between amount of time spent engaging in social networking and individuals' self-esteem. The current study included 191 participants that were recruited via email and various social networking sites. While most of the research in this area has focused on the most popular social networking website, Facebook, this study sought to better understand how social networking as a whole impacted an individual's self-esteem. Thus, social networking sites such as, but not limited to Facebook, MySpace, and LinkedIn were employed as recruitment tools and participants responded to questions about their engagement with such sites. Twenty social networking sites were included in this study. In addition to a demographic questionnaire, two instruments were used to gather data for this study. The Social Networking Patterns Questionnaire, which was developed for the purposes of this study, was employed to gather information about participants' time spent engaging with social networking activities. The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale was employed to measure participants' general feelings of self. Surveys were administered electronically via Qualtrics, a data collection website. The data were collected using a cross-sectional approach with a non-random sample. The researcher predicted that greater time spent engaging in social networking would result in a decrease in self-esteem. Correlations were employed to better understand the relationship between amount of time spent engaging in social networking and self-esteem. The results of the present study suggest that there is a relationship between the amount of time spent engaging in social networking and self-esteem.
