Deborah Klink (s1811150), Bachelor thesis 4 Moreover, the extent of identification with one’s own social media presence is not widely researched. So far, research in the field of social media has focused on the way social media is linked and can help or hinder identity construction (Camacho, Minelli, & Grosseck, 2012; Thomas & Briggs, 2016a). Nevertheless, it might be important to find out to what extent individuals identify with their online presence. This is because social media might not only be linked to identity construction, as many moments are shared on social media but also to creating an online autobiography (Thomas & Briggs, 2016a). Online autobiographies These online autobiographies can be generated with the help of applications, such as Intel’s Museum of Me or the website MySocialBook.com, which use social media posts to create automated autobiographies. More specifically, they allow an individual to review, reflect, and reminiscence on their own life based on posts on social networking sites, by putting all posts together in a way that allows an easy overview (Paramboukis, Skues, & Wise, 2016). The two most popular social networking sites which allow for such an automatically generated autobiography to be created are Facebook and Instagram. While Instagram mainly allows for visual content, such as photos and videos, Facebook is constructed more widely. In addition to photos and videos, it is also possible to share texts and posts from other users (Facebook Company Info, 2019). However, the extent to which these sites can be used to reflect and reminiscence on the content itself and on an individual’s life is still unclear (Thomas & Briggs, 2016a). Therefore, the question arises, whether there exists a difference between persons whose autobiography is created by using the content of Facebook or Instagram in regard to their identity and emotions experienced while reviewing their autobiography. Theoretical Framework Autobiographical memory. Autobiographical memory is part of the explicit memory, which stores facts and events (Williams, Conway, & Cohen, 2008). More specifically, autobiographical memory encompasses experiences and facts of an individual about themselves (Williams et al., 2008). However, Fivush, Habermas, Waters, and Zaman (2011) state that autobiographical memory “goes beyond the recalling of the who, what, where and when” (p. 322) of those experiences and facts, but includes the reasons for explaining why the experience happened the way it did, the meaning ascribed to the experience, as well as an explanation of its importance to the individual. This way, autobiographical memory is the memory of an individual’s life, about their relationships, and social interactions (Fivush, Habermas, Waters, & Zaman, 2011).
