The correlations due to Sociability and Neuroticism were hypothesised and replicate previous research (Amichai-Hamburger & Ben-Artzi, 2000; Amichai-Hamburger & Ben-Artzi, 2003; Correaet al., 2010; Ryan & Xenos, 2011). However, the magnitude of these correlations is surprising. The personality traits examined here and age account for just 10% of the variance in Facebook Social, leaving 90% unexplained. Facebook is used by vast numbers of people and is primarily viewed as a social platform. Thus, due to the allencompassing social nature of Facebook, it may be the case that very little variation in whether or not individuals use Facebook for socialising exists. However, variation may well be present in how individuals socialise online. More nuanced measures such as number of status updates, frequency of instant message conversations, number of wall posts and private messages need to be examined in order to test this hypothesis.
