Study one
Upward social comparison is when people compare themselves to others who are doing
better than them. On the other hand, downward comparison is when people compare themselves
to someone who is worse off than themselves. In the reoccurring evidence where social media is
playing an effect of upward and downward social comparison, poor self-esteem inflicted by this
social media usage could be contributing to our mental health; this is because comparing oneself
to others on a regular basis could be detrimental to their health. To address this question, the
independent variable is the type of social comparison elicited by a Facebook post. More
specifically, participants were randomly assigned to view one of three Facebook posts: a post
where the person is bragging about how their job interview went well (the upward comparison
group), a post where the person posts about how their job interview went poorly (the downward
group), and a post where the person describes their job interview neutrally (the neutral group).
The dependent variables explored here are participant's ratings of their own inferiority and
confidence in their abilities after viewing the post.
SOCIAL COMPARISON, WARNING ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Participants
We hypothesized that participants in the upward social comparison condition will more
strongly agree with negative statements ("I feel inferior to others at this moment") and more
strongly disagree with positive statements ("I feel confident in my abilities") compared to
participants in the downward social comparison condition, with participants in the average social
comparison condition falling between these extremes.
