摘要
频繁使用社交媒体是否会加剧孤独感是一个充满争议的学术问题。本研究认为,社交媒体对孤独感的影响取决于线上社交与线下社交的关系。对2017年中国综合社会调查数据的分析结果显示,频繁使用社交媒体促进了民众与亲朋好友的线下交往和亲密关系,因而对孤独感有明显的缓解作用。同时,社交媒体对孤独感的影响也取决于人们使用社交媒体的方式,常态化使用能够缓解孤独,而病态化使用则会加剧孤独。研究还发现,社交媒体使用方式对孤独感的影响存在阶层差异。如何提高社会下层民众的数字文化资本以使其养成更加健康的社交媒体使用习惯是需要进一步研究的重要问题。
Whether frequent use of social media exacerbates loneliness is a controversial academic issue. This paper argues that the impact of social media on loneliness depends on the relationship between online and offline social interaction. Using data of the 2017 Chinese General Social Survey, we find that the frequent use of social media helps to maintain and consolidate existing social relationships, and therefore has a significant effect on alleviating loneliness. Meanwhile, the impact of social media on loneliness also depends on the way people use social media. Normative use can alleviate loneliness, while pathological use can aggravate loneliness. The study also finds significant class differences in the impact of social media use on loneliness. How to improve the digital cultural capital of lower classes to develop healthier social media use habits is an important issue that needs further research.
