Abstract

Knowledge is lacking on whether adolescents' motivations for social media use predict internalizing symptoms, and few studies have considered the moderating role of extraversion. In 2017 (T1) and 2018 (T2), 197 adolescents (49.70% girls, M_age = 13.15, SD = 0.36) from a large metropolitan area participated in this study. Adolescents reported on their social media use motivations and extraversion (at T1) and depressive and anxiety symptoms (T1 and T2). Latent class analysis revealed four motivation profiles at T1: (1) entertainment and fun (30.97%); (2) avoidance and escapism (14.21%); (3) meeting new people, feel involved (16.75%); (4) boredom (38.07%). Social motivations (profile 3) predicted elevated internalizing symptoms at T2. Avoidance and boredom motivations (profile 2 and 4) predicted internalizing symptoms for adolescents with low extraversion. Social media use motivations and extraversion distinguish adolescents who benefit from social media from those who experience difficulties.

青少年与社交媒体：使用社交媒体的动机与后续内化症状之间的纵向联系。

关于青少年使用社交媒体的动机是否会预测内化症状，目前还缺乏相关知识，也很少有研究考虑外向性的调节作用。2017年（T1）和2018年（T2），来自一个大都市地区的197名青少年（49.70%为女生，Mage = 13.15，SD = 0.36）参与了这项研究。青少年报告了他们使用社交媒体的动机和外向性（T1）以及抑郁和焦虑症状（T1 和 T2）。潜类分析显示，在 T1 阶段有四种使用动机：(1) 娱乐和乐趣（30.97%）；(2) 逃避和逃避现实（14.21%）；(3) 认识新朋友，有参与感（16.75%）；(4) 无聊（38.07%）。社交动机（特征 3）预示着 T2 阶段内化症状的升高。对于外向性低的青少年来说，回避和无聊动机（特征 2 和 4）可预测内化症状。社交媒体使用动机和外向性将从社交媒体中获益的青少年与遇到困难的青少年区分开来。
