GOMEZ-URRUTIA, Verónica y JIMENEZ FIGUEROA, Andrés. Identity in the digital age: elaboration of social media profiles in Chilean teenagers. Convergencia [online]. 2022, vol.29, e17430. Epub 27-Jul-2022. ISSN 2448-5799. https://doi.org/10.29101/crcs.v29i0.17430.
This article aims to reconstruct the inner logics behind the elaboration of social media user profile teenagers in Chile utilize in their online interactions. Using a quantitative approach that considers the adaption and validation of standardized instruments, we enquired into the resources and strategies deployed for the elaboration of these profiles on a sample of Chilean secondary students (N=892). Results show that teenagers report a significant degree of authenticity in the presentation of the self in social networks; however, there are important differences by sex in the strategies and resources mobilized, highlighting the translation of offline gendered codes and norms to the digital world.
