Despite recent privacy scandals, the intensity with which individuals use Facebook has not declined. This indicates that individuals still place significant value on the psychosocial development afforded by using Facebook. As such, the objective of this study was to develop a research model to evaluate the influence of specific individual differences (gender and personality traits) on the intensity of Facebook use. Data was collected from 576 United States Facebook users and subsequently analysed using partial least squares (PLS) path modelling including multi-group analysis. Results indicate the existence of a significant positive relationship between the intensity of Facebook use and  extraversion  as well as  agreeableness . The results further indicate that males high in  extraversion  use Facebook more intensively than females making them particularly vulnerable to the development of a Facebook dependency.
