Abstract

This research investigates how self-esteem and loneliness affect the psychological well-being of Online Dating App Users in Bagumbayan, Bocaue, Bulacan, Philippines. Using a sequential exploratory design integrating qualitative and quantitative approaches, the study explores the experiences, challenges, coping strategies, and psychological attributes of 15 participants in the qualitative phase. The subsequent quantitative phase involves 200 respondents assessed through the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, UCLA Loneliness Scale, and Psychological Well-being Scale. The findings reveal a complex landscape: Online Dating App Users exhibit moderate self-esteem and loneliness levels while displaying above-average psychological well-being. Statistically, a moderate positive correlation exists between self-esteem and psychological well-being, alongside a low yet significant correlation between loneliness and psychological well-being. These insights underpin the formulation of the "Swipe Right, Swipe Left: The Realities of Online Dating Apps Program," which aims to empower users and foster emotionally healthy connections within digital dating platforms through workshops and seminars. This study provides crucial insights into the psychological dynamics of Online Dating App Users, offering implications for research and practical interventions promoting well-being in the digital dating sphere.
