To test my understanding of the impact of social media on our identities, I created a survey. The results are given below – there were 70 responses in total.
The link was placed on my Facebook profile to try to get people to complete it.
Results:
The results of this survey are somewhat meaningless in that no demographic data has been collected, and the survey was not specific to one platform (that is why the Instagram only survey was launched). Whilst there is no conclusive result about our identities changing to meet the needs of others, it does give me some insights into the online identity issue – more research will be required.
