DEVELOPMENT OF A QUESTIONNAIRE ON PROBLEMATIC USE OF FACEBOOK
The study aims to develop a questionnaire on Problematic use of Facebook (PUF). Given the lack of studies in this field, a review of literature on the problematic Use of the Internet (adapted to Facebook) allowed to retain three dimensions (Loss of control, Neglect, Distraction). Following verification of the items by experts, a pretest was conducted (n=66 students in a university course). A total of 925 students/workers (from a Quebec University) responded to the final version of the questionnaire. Results support a model with three correlated factors. This questionnaire will contribute to the knowledge on PUF.
