Abstract
This study investigates relationships between social anxiety, social media use and resilience among university students in Malaysia. The objectives include examining associations between social anxiety and social media use and resilience. Employing a quantitative research design, 187 participants were purposively sampled through an online survey. Utilizing Microsoft Excel and SPSS, the analysis revealed a notable connection between social media usage and social anxiety, aligning with established literature. Unexpectedly, no substantial correlation emerged between social media use and resilience. This unexpected finding prompts further exploration into specific aspects of social media interactions and content that contribute to social anxiety. Future research should delve into specific aspects of social media interactions contributing to social anxiety and explore additional factors influencing the intricate connection between resilience and social media use in the university context.
