Original Kurzfassung:
Instagram is a popular social networking application, which
allows photo-sharing and applying different photo filters to
adjust the appearance of a picture. By applying photo filters,
users are able to create a style that they want to express
to their audience. In this study we tried to infer personal-
ity traits from the way users take pictures and apply filters
to them. To investigate this relationship, we conducted an
online survey where we asked participants to fill in a personality
questionnaire, and grant us access to their Instagram
account through the Instagram API. Among 113 participants
and 22,398 extracted Instagram pictures, we found
distinct picture features (e.g., hue, brightness, saturation)
that are related to personality traits. Our findings suggest
a relationship between personality traits and the way users
want to make their pictures look. This allow for new ways to
extract personality traits from social media trails, and new
ways to facilitate personalized systems.
