社交网站的使用呈指数级增长，尤其是在青少年中。虽然父母使用SNS比一般成年人更多，但很少有人知道父母在社交网络环境中对青少年行为的影响。本研究以使用与满足的观点为指导，探讨649名青少年家长使用社交网络来监控与连结子女生活的情形。分析显示，青少年的父母使用SNS养育子女的频率高于其他在线社交活动，如即时消息，Skype，聊天室或博客。使用SNS的前两个原因是与孩子和大家庭沟通。分层逻辑回归结果显示，使用较多SNS活动的青少年的父母更有可能使用SNS与他们的孩子，他们的孩子的朋友，和他们的孩子的朋友的父母沟通。对科技持正面态度的家长，更倾向于使用SNS与孩子的朋友沟通，但较少使用SNS与孩子朋友的家长沟通。年龄较大的青少年的父母更有可能使用SNS与他们的孩子沟通。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The use of social networking sites (SNSs) has increased exponentially, especially among adolescents. While parents use SNS more than the general population of adults, very little is known about parents' of adolescents behaviors in a social networking environment. Guided by a uses and gratification perspective, the purpose of this study was to examine parents' of adolescents (N = 649) use of SNSs to monitor and connect with their children's life. Analyses revealed that parents of adolescents used SNSs for parenting more often than other online social activities such as instant messaging, Skype, chat rooms, or blogging. The top two reasons for using SNSs were to communicate with children and extended family. Hierarchical logistic regression results indicated that parents of adolescents who used a greater number of SNS activities were more likely to use SNSs to communicate with their children, their children's friends, and the parents of their children's friends. Those parents who had positive attitudes toward technology were more likely to use SNSs to communicate with their children's friends but less likely to communicate with parents of their children's friends. Parents of older adolescents were more likely to use SNSs to communicate with their children. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
