对比假设提出了测试的影响，Facebook的曝光对自尊。社会心理学的客观自我意识（OSA）和计算机中介传播的超个人模型分别被用来论证Facebook会降低或增强自尊。结果显示，与之前的OSA研究相比，通过查看自己的Facebook个人资料来增强自我意识，而不是减少自尊。在实验期间更新个人资料并查看自己个人资料的参与者也报告了更大的自尊，这为超个人模型提供了额外的支持。这些发现表明，数字媒体中的选择性自我展示会导致关系的形成，也会影响对自我的印象。
Contrasting hypotheses were posed to test the effect of Facebook exposure on self-esteem. Objective Self-Awareness (OSA) from social psychology and the Hyperpersonal Model from computer-mediated communication were used to argue that Facebook would either diminish or enhance self-esteem respectively. The results revealed that, in contrast to previous work on OSA, becoming self-aware by viewing one's own Facebook profile enhances self-esteem rather than diminishes it. Participants that updated their profiles and viewed their own profiles during the experiment also reported greater self-esteem, which lends additional support to the Hyperpersonal Model. These findings suggest that selective self-presentation in digital media, which leads to intensified relationship formation, also influences impressions of the self.
