Abstract

Despite young Black women’s high rates of social media use and risks for victimization at the nexus of sexism and racism, the relationship between these variables remains under researched in this segment. We surveyed 354 Black American women aged 18–30 to explore the associations between two aspects of social media use—time spent daily on social media platforms (i.e., Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Tumblr, Twitter, and YouTube) and type of social media engagement (i.e., active social use, active non-social use, and passive use)—with four different types of online victimization (i.e., general online victimization [GOV], online sexual victimization [OSV], online individual racial victimization [OIRV], and online vicarious racial victimization [OVRV]). Results indicate that more time spent daily on Tumblr was significantly associated with more experiences of GOV, OSV, and OIRV. More time spent daily on Instagram was significantly associated with more experiences of OVRV, while more time spent daily on Facebook was significantly associated with fewer experiences of OVRV. Active non-social use was significantly associated with more experiences of GOV and OIRV. Snapchat, TikTok, Twitter, and YouTube use, active social use, and passive use were not significantly associated with any categories of online victimization. We provide implications for researchers as well as mental and behavioral health practitioners seeking to enhance Black women’s safety and well-being on social media platforms.

美国黑人年轻女性的社交媒体使用情况和在线受害情况
尽管年轻的黑人女性使用社交媒体的比例很高,而且在性别歧视和种族主义的夹缝中存在受害风险,但对这些变量之间的关系的研究仍然不足。我们对 354 名 18-30 岁的美国黑人女性进行了调查,以探索社交媒体使用的两个方面(即每天在社交媒体平台(即 Facebook、Instagram、Snapchat、TikTok、Tumblr、Twitter 和 YouTube)上花费的时间)与社交媒体参与类型(即、结果表明,每天花在社交媒体上的时间越多,就越有可能受到四种不同类型的网络伤害(即一般网络伤害[GOV]、网络性伤害[OSV]、网络个人种族伤害[OIRV]和网络替代种族伤害[OVRV])。结果表明,每天花在 Tumblr 上的时间越多,GOV、OSV 和 OIRV 的经历就越多。每天在 Instagram 上花费更多时间与更多的 OVRV 经历显著相关,而每天在 Facebook 上花费更多时间与较少的 OVRV 经历显著相关。活跃的非社交使用与更多的 GOV 和 OIRV 体验有显著相关性。Snapchat、TikTok、Twitter 和 YouTube 的使用、主动社交使用和被动使用与任何类别的网络受害都没有明显关联。我们为研究人员以及心理和行为健康从业人员提供了在社交媒体平台上提高黑人女性安全和福祉的启示。

期刊介绍: Social Media + Society is an open access, peer-reviewed scholarly journal that focuses on the socio-cultural, political, psychological, historical, economic, legal and policy dimensions of social media in societies past, contemporary and future. We publish interdisciplinary work that draws from the social sciences, humanities and computational social sciences, reaches out to the arts and natural sciences, and we endorse mixed methods and methodologies. The journal is open to a diversity of theoretic paradigms and methodologies. The editorial vision of Social Media + Society draws inspiration from research on social media to outline a field of study poised to reflexively grow as social technologies evolve. We foster the open access of sharing of research on the social properties of media, as they manifest themselves through the uses people make of networked platforms past and present, digital and non. The journal presents a collaborative, open, and shared space, dedicated exclusively to the study of social media and their implications for societies. It facilitates state-of-the-art research on cutting-edge trends and allows scholars to focus and track trends specific to this field of study.
