Abstract:
The study aimed to explore the correlation among loneliness, self-esteem, and selfitis. Using
correlational design and convenient sampling sample was consisted of university students aging
18-25 (M = 21.5, S.D = 1.11). Data was collected by administrating Rosenberg Self-Esteem
Scale, Selfitis Behavior Scale, and The Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale. Pearson correlation
showed a positive non-significant correlation between loneliness and selfitis behavior. Moreover,
finding revealed a negative non-significant correlation between self-esteem and selfitis.
Furthermore, findings from the t-test revealed that male participants were more prone to selfitis
behavior. The study suggested future researches to incorporate individual related characteristics
such as personality and coping to establish more stronger predictors of selfitis
