摘要:People rely on social media to fulfill their needs for their social development like affiliation, wisdom, and self-worth. But this leads to problematic attachment and dependency on social media resulting in risks on an individual’s private, social, and economic welfare. The present study investigated whether there is any mediating role of religiosity and spirituality on social media intrusion and its relationship between psychological adjustment (anxiety, stress, and depression) in university students. A total of 402 participants completed questionnaires from different universities of Lahore. The Results show that social media intrusion is significantly and positively associated with depression, anxiety, stress, and religiosity. But its relationship with spirituality is insignificant. In the relationship between social media addiction and psychological wellbeing, the only religious commitment was a significant mediator while spiritual wellbeing could not mediate both variables. From these results, it may be inferred that social media intrusion is increasing religious commitment but there is no effect on spiritual wellbeing.
