Abstract
Facebook has been instrumental in the lives of people; specifically amongst the students. The objective of the work underhand highlights the impact of the pandemic on the Facebook addiction and also on the self-esteem of university students. With an intent to check and prove a low or high degree of self-esteem particularly in university students due to the excessive use of Facebook especially after the global outbreak in the shape of COVID-19; 100 of students from the University of Azad Jammu & Kashmir, Muzaffarabad whose age ranges around 19-26 were tested by collecting their data with two standardized scales namely Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale (BFAS) and Rosenberg Self-Esteem (RSE). The data analysed by computing reliabilities of scale, correlation coefficient, and independent-sample t-test. It is concluded that excessive use of Facebook activities during the global outbreak has increased self-esteem. The study also proposes positive use of Facebook, including connection and learning.
