This study aims to explore the relationships between Facebook’s intensity and five-factor personality features, dark triple personality features and self-esteem. The study was conducted with the participation of 408 (312 women, 94 men) university students. As a data collection tool, Facebook’s Intensity Scale, Personality Test, Dark Triangle Scale, and Rosenberg’s Identity Respect Scale were used. The data was analyzed using Pearson's correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis techniques. The correlation analysis found a significant positive relationship between Facebook’s intensity and the time of online connection on Facebook. Similarly, there has been a positive and meaningful relationship between the narcistic personality feature and the intensity of Facebook use. The intensity of Facebook has been processed by the time of stay on Facebook in the first block to a significant level. In the second block, all the variables significantly describe the variation of 18% of the scores that the individuals who participated in the survey received from the Facebook intensity scale. In the second step, it was found that the narcissism was the narcissist of Facebook’s intensity. In further research, it is believed that it would be useful to take this outcome into account. Possible explanations and limitations of the work have been discussed.
