Pearson distribution analysis was used to examine the relationship between the scales, and path analysis was used for model testing. P<0.05 was accepted for significance.

According to the Path model, social media attitude behavior has a positive significant effect on digital literacy behavior (β: 0.475, p: 0.000), and digital literacy behavior has a positive significant effect on self-perception behavior (β: 0.412, p: 0.000). . In addition, it was determined that digital literacy view (β: 0.196, p: 0.005) played a mediating role in the effect of social media attitude view on self-perception view. When the results are evaluated, it is possible to talk about the positive effect of social media distribution on the self-perception of adolescents as well as the acquisition of digital literacy.
