      'Invented Words' by Adolescent Bloggers with Neuroticism Personality Tendencies. (English)
    • نبذة مختصرة :
      This study examines the use of 'invented words' by adolescent bloggers with Neuroticism personality tendencies. This study analyzes two adolescent bloggers who actively wrote blog posts in 2012. Both adolescents were chosen from 20 adolescents who were randomly selected by the researchers. The analysis was conducted qualitatively by applying the theory of the Big Five Personality by McCrae and Costa (1997). Other than Neuroticism, this theory explains that there are four other personality tendencies, namely Extraversion, Agreeableness, Openness, and Conscientiousness. The results show the existence of invented words in the blog posts by both adolescents. The use of the invented words in blogs' text occurred due to the influence of adolescent emotions while communicating in blogs. The diversity of these emotions prompted adolescents to communicate without the constraint of a similar youth community. The resulting text was understood by adolescents only and the selection of words differed from its true meaning. The use of the resulting words affected the adolescents' personalities, to be either positively or negatively influenced. Most invented words resulted from communication in social networks, especially blogs. The invented words developed and were used by other adolescents who communicate with each other or read blog posts. As a result, the invented words were used widely and caused the words to differ from their original meanings. The result of this study indicates that the implications in understanding adolescents' personalities through written text on internet social networking only differ from its original meaning. The study also provides a clear picture of adolescents' personalities on the internet compared to face-to-face interaction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
