简介：鉴于将社交媒体的使用与更糟糕的幸福感联系起来的相关性研究的广度，我们进行了一项实验研究，以调查社交媒体在这种关系中发挥的潜在因果作用。方法：经过一周的基线监测，宾夕法尼亚大学的143名本科生被随机分配到Facebook，Instagram和Snapchat的使用时间限制为每天每个平台10分钟，或者像往常一样使用社交媒体三周。结果：与对照组相比，有限使用组在三周内的孤独感和抑郁症显着减少。两组都显示出焦虑和害怕错过基线的显着下降，这表明增加自我监控的好处。讨论内容：我们的研究结果强烈表明，每天使用社交媒体的时间限制在30分钟左右可能会显著改善幸福感。
Introduction: Given the breadth of correlational research linking social media use to worse well-being, we undertook an experimental study to investigate the potential causal role that social media plays in this relationship. Method: After a week of baseline monitoring, 143 undergraduates at the University of Pennsylvania were randomly assigned to either limit Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat use to 10 minutes, per platform, per day, or to use social media as usual for three weeks. Results: The limited use group showed significant reductions in loneliness and depression over three weeks compared to the control group. Both groups showed significant decreases in anxiety and fear of missing out over baseline, suggesting a benefit of increased self-monitoring. Discussion: Our findings strongly suggest that limiting social media use to approximately 30 minutes per day may lead to significant improvement in well-being.
