Introduction: In this study, we aimed to investigate the selfitis behaviors and self-esteem of nursing and medical technology students. Material and Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with the participation of 612 students studying in the departments of nursing and medical technology at a university in eastern Turkey. The non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis test were carried out. Results: The participants were between the ages of 18 and 24. Most of the participants in both department groups were women. More than 90% of the participants in both groups were using social media. It was determined that they used WhatsApp, Instagram, and Twitter most, and they took selfies for sharing these selfies with their friends on social media. A statistically significant negative correlation was found between the selfitis behaviors of the participants and their self-esteem levels. Conclusion: The nursing and medical technology students who participated in this study had moderate levels of selfitis behaviors and self-esteem, and there was a negative relationship between these two variables. To facilitate the socializing of students in real life, we recommend that their family and close circle support be increased. We recommend raising awareness on print and visual media regarding problematic social media usage behaviors.
