Do Instagram "likes" Influence High Schoolers' Self-Esteem

Yorkshire

For Research and Application our group decided to do research on the influence Instagram has through high schoolers' and their self-esteem. The reason we choose high school students is because, a lot of groups within our class were focusing on college students and self-esteem through Instagram. The way we collected our data was by sending out a survey asking question about how many likes were satisfactory to these students and did it influence their self-esteem. We also use Rosenberg's self-esteem scale to see how this influenced their self-esteem. Through this research we found that with the literature reviews Instagram does influence ones self-esteem, but through our survey we found that Instagram does not influence ones self-esteem.
