HUBUNGAN ANTARA SELF-ESTEEM DAN SOCIAL ANXIETY PADA MAHASISWA AKTIF PROGRAM STUDI BK UNIVERSITAS SANATA DHARMA PENGGUNA SECOND ACCOUNT INSTAGRAM
Abstract
This study aimed to determine: (1) the level of self-esteem among students who use second Instagram accounts, (2) the level of social anxiety among students who use second Instagram accounts, and (3) the relationship between self-esteem and social anxiety among students who use second Instagram accounts. This study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational method. The participants consisted of 80 active students from the Guidance and Counseling Study Program at Sanata Dharma University, selected through purposive sampling with the criterion of being active users of second Instagram accounts. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Pearson Product-Moment correlation test. The validity test showed that 47 of 48 self-esteem items were valid, while 32 of 44 social anxiety items were valid. The reliability coefficients were α = 0.733 for self-esteem and α = 0.736 for social anxiety. The results showed that self-esteem was categorized as high, while social anxiety was categorized as moderate. Furthermore, there was a significant negative relationship between self-esteem and social anxiety, with a correlation coefficient of -0.344 and p < 0.002. Higher self-esteem was associated with lower social anxiety among students who use second Instagram accounts. The findings indicate that psychological factors related to media use should receive attention because students with positive self-evaluations tend to experience lower anxiety in interactions, communication, and self-expression within online and offline environments during their academic and development processes.
