Abstract:

 This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of phubbing among university students, review some variables that are believed to be associated and determine personality types. This cross-sectional study was conducted on all undergraduate students at a university in Ankara during the 2020-2021 spring semester. Data was collected online. It was targeted to reach the target population rather than calculating the sample. The study group consisted of 869 students who agreed to take part in the study. In this study, the Phubbing Scale was used to determine the level of phubbing and the 10-Item Personality Inventory was used to determine personality traits. Analyses were conducted with Chi-squared test and Logistic Regression Analysis. Statistical significance value was accepted as p  0.05. The study group consisted of 654 75.3 female students and 215 24.7 male students. Their age ranged from 18 to 44 with a mean age of 21.37  2.97 years. The prevalence of phubbing was found to be 7.9 in this study. Important risk factors for phubbing are being a woman, having an extended family, having an average duration of daily smartphone use of 6 hours and more and agreeableness personality trait. The most commonly used social media apps by the students were WhatsApp 29.6, Instagram 25.9 and YouTube 23.6.In conclusion, more comprehensive studies are needed to reveal the relationship between personality types and sociotelism.

 Çalışma, üniversite öğrencileri arasında sosyotelizm sıklığının saptanması, ilişkili olduğu düşünülen bazı değişkenlerin incelenmesi ve kişilik tiplerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.Kesitsel tipte olan çalışma, 2020-2021 eğitim öğretim yılı bahar döneminde Ankaradaki bir üniversitede öğrenim görmekte olan tüm öğrenciler arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler öğrencilerle çevirim içi online olarak toplanmıştır. Araştırmada örneklem hesabına gidilmemiş olup, evrene ulaşılması hedeflenmiştir. Çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 869 öğrenci çalışma grubunu oluşturmuştur. Çalışmamızda sosyotelizm düzeyinin değerlendirilmesi için Sosyotelizm Ölçeği, kişilik özelliklerinin belirlenmesinde ise On Maddeli Kişilik Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Analizler Ki-kare testi ve Lojistik Regresyon Analizi ile yapılmıştır. İstatistiksel anlamlılık değeri olarak p0.05 kabul edilmiştir.Çalışma grubundakilerin 654ü 75.3 kadın, 215i 24.7 ise erkektir. Yaşları 18-44 arasında değişmekte olup, ortalama 21.372.97 yıl idi. Çalışmada sosyotelizm sıklığı 7.9 olarak bulunmuştur. Sosyotelizm için önemli risk faktörleri arasında kadın olmak, geniş aile yapısına sahip olmak, günlük ortalama akıllı telefon kullanma süresinin 6 saat ve üzerinde olması ve yumuşak başlı kişilik tipine sahip olma özelliği bulunmaktadır. Öğrencilerin en çok kullandıkları sosyal medya uygulamaları sırasıyla; 29.6 ile whatsapp, 25.9 ile instagram ve 23.6 ile youtube idi. Sonuç olarak, kişilik tipleri ile sosyotelizm arasında saptanan ilişkinin ortaya konabilmesi için daha kapsamlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
