Abstract

Due to its pervasiveness, social networking sites (SNS) have a substantial impact on their users' lives. Studies have found an association between the use of SNS with both positive and negative effects. The level of satisfaction with life and dispositional envy were measured and compared to the content shared on Instagram by 86 Mexican university students. For this purpose, a total of 15,897 images were collected and analyzed with an image recognition software. Lastly, images were categorized. Results show 1) a negative correlation between envy and participants' levels of satisfaction with life; 2) satisfaction with life levels decreased, although minimally, for each image of the categories of Nature and Properties; and 3) levels of envy increased for each image from the categories of Education and Properties, and decreased for each image categorized under the Business and People categories. We conclude that Instagram provides a fertile ground to develop research on human behavioral fields, including education.

性格嫉妒、对生活的满意度和大学生在Instagram上分享的照片

由于其普遍性，社交网站(SNS)对其用户的生活产生了重大影响。研究发现，社交网络的使用既有积极影响，也有消极影响。研究人员测量了86名墨西哥大学生对生活的满意度和性格上的嫉妒程度，并将其与Instagram上分享的内容进行了比较。为此，共收集了15897张图像，并使用图像识别软件进行了分析。最后，对图像进行分类。结果表明:1)嫉妒与被试生活满意度呈负相关;2)“自然”和“属性”类别的每张图像对生活水平的满意度都有所下降，尽管幅度很小;3)“教育”和“财产”类别的每张图片的嫉妒程度都有所上升，而“商业”和“人物”类别的每张图片的嫉妒程度都有所下降。我们的结论是，Instagram为发展人类行为领域的研究提供了肥沃的土壤，包括教育。
