互联网和各种形式的虚拟社区的出现，给个人带来了一个新的社会空间的影响，他们经常用其他形式的社交取代现实世界。在虚拟社区中，新的“友谊”很容易被接受；然而，这种接受如何影响文化认同尚未被调查。基于从塞尔维亚共和国443名受访者收集的数据，作者分析了这种联系，以及对他人文化价值观的吸收如何反映在当地文化价值观上。结果表明，接受他人的文化价值观削弱了与当地社区的联系。本文通过研究虚拟社区中对陌生人的接受与其对文化认同的影响之间的关系，增加了虚拟社区理论。本研究有助于澄清虚拟网络对文化认同的影响。
The emergence of the Internet and various forms of virtual communities has led to the impact of a new social space on individuals who frequently replace the real world with alternative forms of socializing. In virtual communities, new ‘friendships’ are easily accepted; however, how this acceptance influences cultural identity has not been investigated. Based on the data collected from 443 respondents in the Republic of Serbia, authors analyze this connexion, as well as how the absorption of others’ cultural values is reflected on the local cultural values. The results show that the adoption of others’ cultural values diminished the bond with the local community. The present paper adds to the theory of virtual communities by examining the relationship between the acceptance of an unknown person in a virtual community and its effects on cultural identity. This study contributes to the clarification of the impact that virtual networking has on cultural identity.
