ASSOCIATION BETWEEN SOCIAL MEDIA AND MENTAL HEALTH CHANGES AMONG GEN-Z IN BATAM, INDONESIA: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY
Abstract
Background: This study explores the association between YouTube usage and the mental health status of Gen-Z, focusing on the roles of social anxiety and parasocial interaction in YouTube addiction. Purpose: To identify the link between social anxiety (LSAS) and parasocial interaction (PSI) and YouTube addiction (IAT), while also evaluating the role of social support (MSPSS). Methods: Data were collected from 380 respondents in Batam City. The measurement tools included the Internet Addiction Test (IAT), LieBowltz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS), Parasocial Interaction (PSI), and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). Results: Multiple regression analysis revealed that 84.5% of the variability in YouTube addiction can be explained by LSAS, PSI, and MSPSS. The F-test results indicated high significance (F = 681.862, p < 0.05). The t-test showed that LSAS (B = 0.609, t = 11.623, p < 0.0001) and PSI (B = 0.707, t = 6.642, p < 0.0001) had a significant influence on IAT, while MSPSS was not significant (B = 0.067, t = 0.893, p = 0.372). The regression model for IAT was IAT = -2.151 + 0.609LSAS + 0.707PSI + 0.067MSPSS, and for PSI was PSI = -2.715 + 0.517LSAS. Conclusion: Confirm that social anxiety and parasocial interaction significantly affect YouTube addiction, while social support does not show a significant influence.

Uji t menunjukkan bahwa LSAS (B = 0,609, t = 11,623, p < 0,0001) dan PSI (B = 0,707, t = 6,642, p < 0,0001) memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap IAT, sedangkan MSPSS tidak signifikan (B = 0,067, t = 0,893, p = 0,372). Model regresi untuk IAT adalah IAT = -2,151 + 0,609LSAS + 0,707PSI + 0,067MSPSS, dan untuk PSI adalah PSI = -2,715 + 0,517LSAS.
