This study aims to investigate the motives and preferences of Facebook users, exploring why individuals choose to use the platform and how their usage patterns differ across demographics. The study relies on an online survey conducted with 383 random participants to gather data and analyze user behavior.
The study begins with an introduction, outlining the significance of social networks, particularly Facebook, in the current digital landscape. The literature review delves into existing research on social network popularity, motivations for using Facebook, and the differences in usage patterns based on age, education levels, and gender. The methodology section describes the research design, including the objectives, hypotheses, questionnaire design, sample selection, data collection, and statistical analysis used in the study.
The data analysis section presents the findings from the online survey, focusing on demographic characteristics of the participants and exploring the descriptive statistics and comparative analysis to uncover key patterns in Facebook usage. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the findings and their implications for understanding user behavior on Facebook.
The study focuses on Facebook usage motivations, user demographics, social networks, online communication, social media trends, survey research, quantitative data analysis, and the impact of digital technologies on social interaction.
The study identifies Facebook as a powerful communication tool. Younger users (14-21) primarily use it to chat with school friends, while users aged 22 and older focus on reconnecting with old friends and family members.
Younger people tend to spend significantly more time on the platform. While the youth focuses on daily social interactions with peers, older demographics use the platform more for maintaining long-distance or familial relationships.
The majority of participants across all demographics expressed a sense of security by restricting their profile visibility to "friends only" and maintaining few connections with unknown individuals.
The research investigated social network trends between genders, noting differences in communication styles and preferences, although security concerns remained a common denominator for both.
The data was gathered through an online survey involving 383 random participants, covering various education levels, ages, and genders to ensure a representative sample.
