本研究探讨了特定的基于技术的行为（社会比较和人际反馈寻求），可能与离线的个人特征，以预测并发抑郁症状的青少年。共有619名学生（57%为女性;平均年龄14.6岁）在2个时间点完成了自我报告问卷。青少年报告了基线时的抑郁症状水平，以及1年后的抑郁症状，技术使用频率（手机，Facebook和Instagram），过度寻求安慰以及基于技术的社会比较和反馈寻求。青少年也完成了受欢迎程度的社会计量提名。与假设一致，基于技术的社会比较和寻求反馈与抑郁症状有关。受欢迎程度和性别作为这种效应的调节因子，这种关联在受欢迎程度低的女性和青少年中尤其强烈。研究发现，这种关联超出了技术使用的总体频率、离线过度寻求安慰和先前的抑郁症状的影响。研究结果强调了在现有的青少年抑郁症人际模型的框架内研究青少年使用技术的心理影响的实用性，并提出了更细致入微的方法来研究青少年使用媒体的重要性。
This study examined specific technology-based behaviors (social comparison and interpersonal feedback-seeking) that may interact with offline individual characteristics to predict concurrent depressive symptoms among adolescents. A total of 619 students (57 % female; mean age 14.6) completed self-report questionnaires at 2 time points. Adolescents reported on levels of depressive symptoms at baseline, and 1 year later on depressive symptoms, frequency of technology use (cell phones, Facebook, and Instagram), excessive reassurance-seeking, and technology-based social comparison and feedback-seeking. Adolescents also completed sociometric nominations of popularity. Consistent with hypotheses, technology-based social comparison and feedback-seeking were associated with depressive symptoms. Popularity and gender served as moderators of this effect, such that the association was particularly strong among females and adolescents low in popularity. Associations were found above and beyond the effects of overall frequency of technology use, offline excessive reassurance-seeking, and prior depressive symptoms. Findings highlight the utility of examining the psychological implications of adolescents’ technology use within the framework of existing interpersonal models of adolescent depression and suggest the importance of more nuanced approaches to the study of adolescents’ media use.
