在线社交网络是一种普遍存在的现象，但在经验上研究得很少。关于其后果的强烈公众意见是存在的，但几乎没有经验证据支持，也几乎没有因果关系结论的实验研究。目前的这项研究使用一项实验设计来测试在Facebook上发布状态更新的心理影响。在一周的时间里，实验条件下的参与者被要求发布比平时更多的内容，而控制条件下的参与者没有收到任何指示。参与者添加了一个实验室“研究档案”作为Facebook好友，允许客观记录协议遵从性、参与者的状态更新和好友的回复。结果表明：(1)实验诱导的状态更新活动的增加减少了孤独感，(2)孤独感的降低是因为参与者每天感到与朋友之间的联系更紧密，(3)发帖对孤独感的影响独立于朋友的直接社会反馈(即回应)。
Online social networking is a pervasive but empirically understudied phenomenon. Strong public opinions on its consequences exist but are backed up by little empirical evidence and almost no causally-conclusive, experimental research. The current study tested the psychological effects of posting status updates on Facebook using an experimental design. For one week, participants in the experimental condition were asked to post more than they usually do, whereas participants in the control condition received no instructions. Participants added a lab “Research Profile” as a Facebook friend allowing for the objective documentation of protocol compliance, participants’ status updates, and friends’ responses. Results revealed (1) that the experimentally-induced increase in status updating activity reduced loneliness, (2) that the decrease in loneliness was due to participants feeling more connected to their friends on a daily basis and (3) that the effect of posting on loneliness was independent of direct social feedback (i.e. responses) by friends.
