Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: Facebook has become a part of daily life for its users and therefore become a very significant factor of mental health. As the number of Facebook users increases exponentially, the problems related to immense use have become more evident and more frequent. Therefore, the study aimed to explore the impact of Facebook addiction on depression among its users.
METHODS: An online-based questionnaire was used to collect data from 269 Facebook users of Bangladesh using convenient sampling technique. Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale (BFAS) and Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) scale was used to assess Facebook addiction and its impact on depression.Ordinal logistic was used to extract the significant variables associated with Facebook addiction and depression.
RESULTS: The result categorized the Facebook users into three categories as : normal (17%), problematic user (52%) and addicted (30.5%). Facebook users were suffering from mild (13.4%), minimal (15.6%), moderate (59.5%), and severe (11.5%) level of depression. Both Facebook addiction and depression were moderately correlated (0.701). Ordinal regression showed, gender [Formula: see text] (95% CI) = 0.859 (0.223,1.495)), age (β (95% CI) = -2.051(-3.789, -0.313)), residential area (β (95% CI) = -0.858(-1.626, -0.09)), occupation ([Formula: see text]), time length of Facebook use ([Formula: see text]are the significant predictors of Facebook addiction. Wheras, relationship types and occupation are also responsible for depression.
CONCLUSIONS: The study showed large portion of facebook users of Bangladesh are suffering from depression. Authors suggest to arrange mental health campaign to promote bounded and legitimate use of facebook and therefore will accelerate the attaining rate of sustainable development goal related to the Bangladesh\'s health status.

摘要：
目的：Facebook已成为其用户日常生活的一部分，因此成为心理健康的一个非常重要的因素。随着Facebook用户数量呈指数级增长，与大量使用相关的问题变得更加明显和频繁。因此,该研究旨在探讨Facebook成瘾对其用户抑郁的影响。
方法：使用基于在线的问卷，使用便捷的抽样技术从孟加拉国的269个Facebook用户中收集数据。采用卑尔根Facebook成瘾量表（BFAS）和患者健康问卷（PHQ-9）量表评估Facebook成瘾及其对抑郁的影响。序数逻辑用于提取与Facebook成瘾和抑郁症相关的重要变量。
结果：结果将Facebook用户分为三类：正常（17％），有问题的用户(52%)和上瘾的用户(30.5%)。Facebook用户患有轻度（13.4%），最低(15.6%)，中等(59.5%)，和严重（11.5％）的抑郁症。Facebook成瘾和抑郁症呈中度相关（0.701）。有序回归显示，性别[公式：见正文](95%CI)=0.859(0.223,1.495))，年龄（β（95%CI）=-2.051（-3.789，-0.313）），居住面积(β(95%CI)=-0.858(-1.626，-0.09))，职业([公式：见正文])，Facebook使用的时间长度([公式：见正文]是Facebook成瘾的重要预测因素。Wheras,关系类型和职业也是抑郁症的原因。
结论：研究表明，孟加拉国的大部分Facebook用户都患有抑郁症。作者建议组织心理健康运动，以促进Facebook的有限和合法使用，因此将加快实现与孟加拉国健康状况相关的可持续发展目标的速度。
