 Facebook can lead to 'addiction' says a Swedish report into the social network - and people on low incomes and of low educational levels are particularly at risk. |

Facebook is a habit-forming activity - but users who spend a lot of time on the site say they feel less happy with their lives. University of Gothenburg researchers say that many users log in as soon as they turn their PCs on - and that the behaviour can develop into an 'addiction'. People in low income groups and the poorly educated are particularly at risk. Up to 85% of users say that they use Facebook daily - and half say they start up Facebook as soon as they open their web users. Half fear that they are not 'on top of things' if they are not logged into the site, and 25% say they fill 'ill at ease' if they can't log in regularly. The Swedish survey, which polled 1,000 people aged 18-73 showed the network had its dark side. 'Facebooking may become an unconscious habit. A majority of the respondents log in every time they start their web browser. This may even develop into an addiction,' says Leif Denti, doctoral student of Psychology at the University of Gothenburg. People with low income and low-educated individuals spend more time on Facebook. Women are generally more active than men on Facebook. Users with low income and low education use Facebook more than other groups. Within these groups, users who spend more time on Facebook also report feeling less happy and less content with their lives. This relationship is also present for women, but not for men. The other surprise about the network is that although a huge amount of personal 'news' is traded, through the site, it tends to focus purely on the positive. 'Facebook is a social tool that is clearly used to manage relationships with friends and family. 'But users won't write just anything – most of the content they share has something to do with major events, positive events and when feeling good. Only 38 percent write about negative emotions and events,' says Leif Denti. (Agencies) |
Facebook是一種易上癮的活動(dòng)，然而花大量時(shí)間上該網(wǎng)站的用戶(hù)稱(chēng)他們感到生活沒(méi)有以前幸福了。 哥德堡大學(xué)的研究人員稱(chēng)，許多用戶(hù)一把個(gè)人電腦打開(kāi)就很快登錄Facebook，這會(huì)讓人漸漸成癮。 低收入者和教育程度低的人沉迷于Facebook的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)尤其大。 多達(dá)85%的用戶(hù)稱(chēng)他們每天都用Facebook，半數(shù)用戶(hù)稱(chēng)他們一打開(kāi)網(wǎng)絡(luò)瀏覽器就進(jìn)入Facebook網(wǎng)站。 半數(shù)人擔(dān)心自己如果不登錄該網(wǎng)站就不能及時(shí)了解消息，25%的人稱(chēng)如果他們不能定期登錄Facebook他們就會(huì)感覺(jué)“局促不安”。 這一瑞典調(diào)查涵蓋了年齡在18歲到73歲間的1000個(gè)人，調(diào)查顯示，F(xiàn)acebook網(wǎng)站也有其陰暗的一面。 哥德堡大學(xué)心理學(xué)博士生雷夫?鄧提說(shuō)：“上Facebook可能會(huì)成為一個(gè)下意識(shí)的習(xí)慣。大多數(shù)應(yīng)答者每次打開(kāi)網(wǎng)絡(luò)瀏覽器都會(huì)登錄Facebook。這甚至?xí)饾u發(fā)展為上癮?！?/p> 低收入者和文化程度低的人花更多時(shí)間上Facebook。 在Facebook網(wǎng)站上，女性通常比男性更活躍。 收入低和教育程度低的用戶(hù)使用Facebook比其他人群都多。在這些人群中，花更多時(shí)間上Facebook網(wǎng)站的用戶(hù)報(bào)告稱(chēng)他們幸福感降低了，對(duì)自己的生活也更不滿(mǎn)意。 這一關(guān)聯(lián)性也存在于女性用戶(hù)當(dāng)中，不過(guò)男性用戶(hù)沒(méi)有這一情況。 關(guān)于該網(wǎng)站的另一個(gè)讓人驚訝之處是，盡管數(shù)量龐大的私人“新聞”通過(guò)網(wǎng)站得到交換，但一般交換的都是正面新聞。 雷夫?鄧提說(shuō)：“顯然，F(xiàn)acebook是一個(gè)用于管理和親友之間關(guān)系的社交工具。 “不過(guò)用戶(hù)們不會(huì)在頁(yè)面上什么都寫(xiě)——大部分分享的內(nèi)容都和重大事件、正面事件有關(guān)，或是在心情好的時(shí)候?qū)懙?。只?8%的用戶(hù)把負(fù)面情緒和負(fù)面事件寫(xiě)出來(lái)?！?/p> 相關(guān)閱讀 厭倦加好友？Facebook新應(yīng)用讓你加“敵人” 社交網(wǎng)站社交功能減弱 用戶(hù)隱私設(shè)置加強(qiáng) Facebook退出網(wǎng)站仍記錄用戶(hù)隱私信息 （中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng)英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津 陳丹妮 編輯：Julie） |
