The goal of this study was to establish relationship between personality traits (extraversion, neuroticism, psychoticism) and selfie addiction and between loneliness and selfie addiction. Data were collected from 150 participants (Males=58, Females= 92) between the age ranges of 18-28 years (M=23.40; SD=2.38). The analysis of the data reveals that there was a significant relationship seen between neuroticism and selfie addiction and between loneliness and selfie addiction. However, no relationship was established between extraversion and selfie addiction and psychoticism and selfie addiction. Loneliness was found to be a significant predictor of selfie addiction which means that lonely people may have a higher tendency for selfie addiction.
