本定性研究调查了23名被诊断为抑郁症的青少年(18名女性,5名男性)对社交媒体使用的描述,以探讨社交媒体使用如何影响心理困扰以及如何受到心理困扰的影响。青少年对社交媒体的积极和消极使用进行了描述。积极使用包括搜索积极内容(即娱乐,幽默,内容创作)或社交联系。负面使用包括分享危险行为、网络欺凌以及与他人进行自我贬低的比较。青少年更详细地描述了三种使用方式,包括“过度分享”(频繁地分享更新或过多的个人信息)、“强调发布”(在社交网络上分享负面更新)和遇到“触发帖子”。在治疗的背景下,这些青少年将他们的社交媒体使用模式从他们认为的消极转变为更积极的使用。讨论了临床医生在社交媒体使用方面咨询抑郁青少年的意义。
This qualitative study examined descriptions of social media use among 23 adolescents (18 female, 5 male) who were diagnosed with depression to explore how social media use may influence and be influenced by psychological distress. Adolescents described both positive and negative use of social media. Positive use included searching for positive content (i.e. for entertainment, humor, content creation) or for social connection. Negative use included sharing risky behaviors, cyberbullying, and for making self-denigrating comparisons with others. Adolescents described three types of use in further detail including “oversharing” (sharing updates at a high frequency or too much personal information), “stressed posting” (sharing negative updates with a social network), and encountering “triggering posts.” In the context of treatment, these adolescents shifted their social media use patterns from what they perceived as negative to more positive use. Implications for clinicians counseling depressed adolescents on social media use are discussed.
