Social network services(SNSs) have impacted various aspects of education because they are considered helpful to students’ learning. Several studies verified their effects on learning outcomes. However, there is still a lack of empirical evidence on the significance of SNS use. We conducted an online survey of 543 university students in Seoul, South Korea. Several multiple regression analyses were carried out to test hypotheses after two factor analyses to verify construct validities. According to the results of factor analysis, students’ learning outcomes fall into the following domains: social domain(SD), cognitive domain(CD), affective domain(AD), and psychomotor domain(PD). Students’ participation in SNSs(SP) and their social acceptance in SNSs(SA) influenced learning outcomes based on SNS. Unlike in previous study results, attitude towards school life(AT) was not significantly related to all learning outcomes. SP was identified as a key variable because it has effects on all learning outcomes.
