Does Facebook Lead To Loneliness?
Facebook會(huì)讓人孤獨(dú)嗎?
Dear:A Moment of Science,
親愛的《科學(xué)一刻》:
I'm not a big Facebook user, but I have friends who are.
我不是Facebook的忠實(shí)用戶,不過我的幾位朋友是。
And I've noticed that some of them are constantly updating their status.
我注意到,他們中有人會(huì)頻繁地更新Facebook的個(gè)人狀態(tài)。
Where some people might post a message once a day, others seem to be posting something every few minutes.
一些人可能一天會(huì)發(fā)布一條消息,而一些人似乎每隔幾分鐘就發(fā)布一條消息。
Can science help explain this phenomenon?
科學(xué)能對(duì)這種現(xiàn)象做一下解釋么?
Interesting question.
很有趣的問題。
Of course, there are many reasons why people join and post stuff on Facebook.
盡管大家注冊(cè)并在Facebook發(fā)帖的原因各異,
But researchers have begun to study the phenomenon you describe.
但科學(xué)家已經(jīng)對(duì)你描述的現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行了研究,
And they found that copious posting on Facebook may have something to do with loneliness.
而他們發(fā)現(xiàn)頻繁地在Facebook上發(fā)帖可能與孤獨(dú)有關(guān)。
Specifically, the researchers found that people who update their status more often report feeling less lonely than people who post less often.
尤其要說明的是,科學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)經(jīng)常更新狀態(tài)的人比不常更新狀態(tài)的人更不易產(chǎn)生孤獨(dú)感。
