Cover Story: Common behavioral patterns in adolescence are problematic use of video games (PG), social media (PSMU), or alcohol (PAU). In the present study, associations of the Big Five personality domains and their 15 facets with PG, PSMU, and PAU were compared for the first time. Therefore, 492 adolescents were examined with established instruments. At the personality domain level, statistically significant associations between higher negative emotionality (Neuroticism) and PG, PSMU and PAU, as well as between lower open-mindedness and PG and PAU, were observed. At the level of the facet, higher anxiety was related to PG and PSMU, as well as lower aesthetic sensitivity and lower productiveness to PG. To sum up, very comparable patterns of associations between PG, PSMU, PAU, and the Big Five and their facets were observed in youth (indicating similarities in etiology). View this paper
