摘要: 为探讨微信使用强度与大学生自尊的关系,采用微信使用强度问卷、上行社会比较问卷、好友亲密度量表和自尊量表,对330名大学生的微信经历和自尊情况进行问卷调查。结果发现:(1)微信使用强度与自尊显著负相关,且上行社会比较在其中起显著中介作用;(2)好友亲密度在上行社会比较与自尊之间起调节作用:在好友亲密度较低的情况下,上行社会比较与自尊显著负相关;在好友亲密度较高时,上行社会比较与自尊相关不显著。结果提示,微信使用程度越强,上行社会比较越多,大学生的自尊水平越低,但是网上亲密的好友关系可以缓解这一关系。

关键词: 微信使用强度, 自尊, 上行社会比较, 好友亲密度

Abstract: In order to explore the relationship between the intensity of WeChat use and college students' self-esteem and the mechanism underlying this relationship, 330 undergraduates' experiences in WeChat use and their self-esteem were surveyed using a series of questionnaires to test a moderated mediation model. The results showed that:(1) the intensity of WeChat use was significantly negatively related to college students' self-esteem, which was mediated significantly by their upward social comparison; (2) closeness to friends played a moderating role in the relationship between upward social comparison and self-esteem:when the levels of closeness to friends were lower, higher levels of upward social comparison were significantly associated with lower levels of self-esteem, whereas no significant relationship was found between upward social comparisons and self-esteem when higher levels of closeness to friends. The results suggest that more upward social comparison during WeChat use is a risk factor of lower self-esteem among college students, but high level of closeness to online friends can alleviate this risk.

Key words: the intensity of WeChat use, self-esteem, upward social comparison, closeness to friends
