- This dataset contains indices of Repertory grids of 40 Italian adolescents between 11 and 16 years old. Repertory grids were analyzed with the Idiogrid software programme, allowing a range of measures (Cipolletta, 2011) to be calculated. Some involved Euclidean distances between elements (ranging from 0 to 2, with a higher distance indicating greater construed dissimilarity between the elements concerned). The Repertory Grid Technique (Fransella, Bell & Bannister, 2004; Kelly, 1955) is a semi-structured interview underpinned by personal construct theory, and consists of elements and constructs. For the repertory grid used in the present study, elements included self on Instagram, offline self, ideal self, future self, past self (before using Instagram), how others see me, the person I like, the person I do not like, mum, dad, my best friend, my body now, my body in the past, self after the “like”, and self after no like. The constructs were elicited through the triadic method, presenting sets of three elements and asking, for each triad, for a way in which two of the elements were similar and, thereby, different from the third (Fransella, Bell & Bannister, 2004). The participant was then asked to rate the elements on each construct on a -3/+3 point scale, which represented the bipolarity of the constructs. The Repertory Grid Technique was used to investigate adolescents’ self-construction as Instagram users. The entire procedure required about one and a half hours to complete. References Cipolletta, S.
