先前关于压力和媒体使用的研究主要集中在人与人之间的影响上。我们通过额外评估人与人之间的关联来补充这一研究领域，假设经历比平常更大的压力会伴随着更多的无手机恐惧症（“无手机恐惧症”）以及比平常更被动和主动的 Facebook 使用，横截面和随着时间的推移，并探索潜在的年龄差异。我们对荷兰成年互联网用户的代表性多波调查的三波进行了二次分析（N = 861）。具体来说，我们使用了两个子样本：(1) 智能手机用户用于分析无恐惧症 (n = 600) 和 (2) Facebook 用户用于分析社交媒体 (n = 469)。采用随机截取交叉滞后面板模型，我们发现在一个时间点，但随着时间的推移，无恐惧症和压力之间存在人内相关性。对于较年轻的年龄组（18-39 岁），比平常更被动地使用 Facebook 会导致六个月后比平时承受更大的压力，而六个月后，比平时更被动地使用 Facebook 会带来比平时更大的压力。不同年龄组的 Facebook 活跃使用情况不存在纵向关系。讨论了方法论和理论意义。
Previous research on stress and media use mainly concentrated on between-person effects. We add to this research field by additionally assessing within-person associations, assuming that experiencing more stress than usual goes along with more nomophobia ("no-mobile-phone phobia") and more passive and active Facebook use than usual, cross-sectionally and over time, and by exploring potential age differences. We conducted a secondary analysis of three waves of a representative multi-wave survey of adult Dutch internet users (N = 861). Specifically, we used two subsamples: (1) smartphones users for the analyses on nomophobia (n = 600) and (2) Facebook users for the analyses on social media (n = 469). Employing random-intercept cross-lagged panel models, we found within-person correlations between nomophobia and stress at one time-point, but not over time. For the younger age group (18-39 years), more passive Facebook use than usual was associated with more stress than usual six months later, and more stress than usual was followed by less passive Facebook use six month later. There were no longitudinal relationships for active Facebook use across the different age groups. Methodological and theoretical implications are discussed.
