Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to summarize existing studies on the association between solitary experiences and problematic social media use (PSMU) among young adults.

Method: A systematic review was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines, implemented in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed and PsycINFO. We selected studies if they presented original data, assessed solitary experiences and PSMU in young adults (i.e., 18-30 age range), were published in peer reviewed journals between 2004 and 2023, and were written in English.

Results: After duplicate removal, 1,841 eligible studies were found. From these, 12 articles were selected, encompassing 4,009 participants. Most studies showed a positive association between general loneliness and PSMU. Some of these suggested that this relationship varies based on the facets of loneliness, other potential variables, and the type of social media. No mediating factors were found. Few studies assessed solitary experiences other than general loneliness, highlighting the need for a multidimensional perspective on solitary experience in investigating PSMU.

Conclusions: Implications and future research orientations are discussed.

青少年的孤独体验与问题社交媒体的使用：系统回顾与未来研究建议》。

研究目的本研究旨在总结现有关于青少年孤独经历与问题社交媒体使用（PSMU）之间关系的研究：根据 PRISMA 准则，在 Scopus、Web of Science、PubMed 和 PsycINFO 中进行了系统性综述。我们选取了提供原始数据、评估年轻人（即 18-30 岁年龄段）的独处经历和 PSMU、2004 年至 2023 年期间发表在同行评审期刊上、用英语撰写的研究：结果：去除重复内容后，共找到 1,841 项符合条件的研究。从中选出了 12 篇文章，涉及 4,009 名参与者。大多数研究表明，一般孤独感与 PSMU 之间存在正相关。其中一些研究表明，这种关系因孤独感的各个方面、其他潜在变量和社交媒体的类型而异。没有发现中介因素。除了一般的孤独感之外，很少有研究对孤独体验进行评估，这突出表明在调查 PSMU 时需要从多维角度看待孤独体验：结论：讨论了影响和未来研究方向。
