The Impact of Messaging Authenticity on Peer Relationship Satisfaction of Senior High School Students
Abstract/Executive Summary
Previous research has explored the effects of social media use (SMU) on business trust, socialization, and negative youth experiences. Tackling a research gap, this research explored messaging app authenticity’s effect on youth peer relationship satisfaction via a survey of 92 students from De La Salle University (DLSU) Senior High School (SHS) in Academic Year (A.Y.) 2021-2022. Concurrent triangulation with the Authenticity-Satisfaction framework showed strong positive correlations between authenticity and satisfaction across attributes except helpfulness, with openness and relationship affirmation as key in aiding relationship satisfaction, affirmation, and companionship. Future research could tackle found discrepancies in attributed effects of genuinity and relationship affirmation while expanding the population and sample sizes.
