本文的目的是开发一个理论模型，以确定人们为什么博客个人内容并解释博客在“现实生活”中的影响。使用 LISREL 8.75 中的最大似然程序对在线调查的数据进行分析，以测试结构模型。在韩国流行的社交网络和博客网站 Cyworld 的 531 名受访者中，随机选择了 251 名用户来开发该模型。另一组 280 名用户用于确认修订后模型的有用性。结果（N = 251；N = 280）表明，印象管理和偷窥监视是激励个人在个人博客上发布和阅读消息的两个主要心理因素。结果还显示了博客对现实生活的影响，通过用户感知的社会支持、孤独感、归属感和主观幸福感来衡量。 (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
The purpose of the current paper is to develop a theoretical model that identifies why people blog personal content and explains the effects of blogging in "real life." Data from an online survey are analyzed using maximum likelihood procedures in LISREL 8.75 to test the structural model. Among 531 respondents from Cyworld, a popular social network and blogging site in South Korea, a randomly selected group of 251 users was used to develop the model. The other group of 280 users was used to confirm the usefulness of the revised model. Results (N = 251; N = 280) showed that impression management and voyeuristic surveillance are two major psychological factors that motivate individuals to post and read messages on personal blogs. Results also showed evidence for blogging's real life consequences, measured by users' perceived social support, loneliness, belonging, and subjective well-being. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
