Multiple Online Identities

Identity is a multifaceted and intricate concept, and there is no precise standard or definition for the relatively recent phenomenon of "multiple online identities." This article will present my research on "multiple online identities" and highlight my concerns. Initially, I explored various types of "online identities" that exist. Then, I delved into the definition and differentiation between "online identities" and "multiple online identities." To accomplish this, I employed several research methods, including an online questionnaire, an online group discussion method, and an interview research method. Conducting "online interviews" was the most suitable option for me, as most participants were geographically distant from my location. The project was time-consuming, but the use of online interviews proved to be highly beneficial. The most significant breakthrough in my research was presenting the online interviews on "multiple online identities" in a documentary format. This article outlines the reasons, process, and summary of my decision to utilize the documentary format in this research. The post-interview summaries uncovered various ongoing issues that can be the subject of future projects. These issues include, but are not limited to, sensitive words, Virtual Reality (VR) social identities, and other topics related to “multiple online identities.”
