Who Posts Selfies? What motivates selfie-taking? Is there a relationship between selfies and Photography Techniques? Is the placement of the main facial features consistent with known principles of photographic
composition?
• The authors studied the association between selfie posting and various personality traits.
• Selfie taking is popular among males and females, but women post more own, partner, and
group selfies than men.
• Extraversion and social exhibitionism positively predict frequency of selfie posting.
Bojan et al., 2017
• The authors studied individual differences in selfies.
• Male selfies generally include the head positioned around the centre of the picture, with
very few expressions or body/head positions.
• Female selfies are less homogeneous and generally more expressive in the matter of head
position, exhibition of the face, tilting of the head and mood expression.
• Do your selfies follow this pattern?
