大量文献表明,社会关系影响心理幸福感,但其内在机制尚不清楚。我们测试了归属感、关系维持、关系投资、社会支持和社会比较等理论对在线互动和幸福感的预测。一项对1910名Facebook用户进行的选择加入小组研究将自我报告的幸福感指标与受访者从服务器日志中统计的Facebook活动联系起来。该网站的特定用途与幸福感的改善有关:从牢固的关系中接收有针对性的、沉着的交流与幸福感的改善有关,而观看朋友的广泛受众广播和接收一键反馈则不相关。这些结果表明,人们可以从在线交流中获益,只要它来自他们关心的人,并且是为他们量身定做的。
An extensive literature shows that social relationships influence psychological well-being, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We test predictions about online interactions and well-being made by theories of belongingness, relationship maintenance, relational investment, social support, and social comparison. An opt-in panel study of 1,910 Facebook users linked self-reported measures of well-being to counts of respondents' Facebook activities from server logs. Specific uses of the site were associated with improvements in well-being: Receiving targeted, composed communication from strong ties was associated with improvements in well-being while viewing friends' wide-audience broadcasts and receiving one-click feedback were not. These results suggest that people derive benefits from online communication, as long it comes from people they care about and has been tailored for them.
