| dc.description.abstract | Instagram, a burgeoning social networking site that developed dramatically among adolescents in Hong Kong nowadays. This study is to investigate the relationship between motives, usage, self-presentation and number of Followers on Instagram by applying the Use and Gratification Theory as well as the Impression Management approach. A total of 181 undergraduate students from City University of Hong Kong were recruited for the conduction of quantitative survey. It was found that motives was positively associated with both usage and self-presentation while the number of Followers also clarified to have a positive correlation with Instagram usage and self-presentation. However, no significant causal relationship was examined between motives and number of Followers. | en_US |
