abstract="This study examines the relationship between peoples' personality traits and social media uses with data from 20 societies (N = 21,314). A measure of the &quot;Big Five&quot; personality traits is tested on key social media dimensions: frequency of use, social interaction, and news consumption. Across diverse societies, findings suggest that while extraversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness are all positive predictors of different types of social media use, emotional stability and openness are negatively related to them.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
