The authors ought to investigate the influence Facebook has on lives of young college students in social interaction and the relationships with the development of psychological disorders. We conducted a survey with 376 respondents and analyzed data through exploratory factor analysis and multiple linear regression. In the analysis of the results, we performed a cross analysis of variables for the descriptive part, and three multivariate phases. The findings pointed out that Facebook may worsen symptoms of stress, depression, and anxiety in individuals. This research contributes to the development of a psychometric analysis with two scales adapted to the psychological disorders.
