Abstract

The present study examined the relations between two facets of Instagram addiction symptoms (i.e., Instagram Feed Addiction – IFA and Instagram Stories Addiction – ISA), anti-mattering, loneliness, and life satisfaction. More specifically, we explored the potential moderating roles of loneliness and life satisfaction on the link between anti-mattering and Instagram addiction symptoms. The sample involved 280 Romanian adults aged 18 to 57 (M = 22.58, SD = 4.62, 72.86% females, mostly from rural residential areas. Findings showed that the higher the age, the lower the scores on both IFA and ISA. Male participants reported higher IFA and ISA than females. Anti-mattering was positively associated with loneliness, Instagram feed, and stories addiction symptoms and negatively associated with life satisfaction. A moderated linear regression with residual centering suggested that both loneliness and life satisfaction moderated the links relations between anti-mattering and Instagram feed and stories addiction symptoms. These findings are discussed in relation to their practical implications for preventing and managing digital addictions among adults.

反正我也不重要。更多的 Instagram 会改变这一点吗？反物质化与 Instagram Feed vs. 故事成瘾症状：孤独感和生活满意度的调节作用

本研究考察了Instagram成瘾症状的两个方面（即Instagram Feed成瘾--IFA和Instagram Stories成瘾--ISA）、反 "渲染"、孤独感和生活满意度之间的关系。更具体地说，我们探讨了孤独感和生活满意度对反碎片化和 Instagram 上瘾症状之间联系的潜在调节作用。样本涉及 280 名年龄在 18 至 57 岁之间的罗马尼亚成年人（男 = 22.58，女 SD = 4.62，72.86% 为女性，大部分来自农村地区）。调查结果显示，年龄越大，IFA 和 ISA 分数越低。男性参与者的 IFA 和 ISA 均高于女性。反碎片化与孤独感、Instagram feed 和故事成瘾症状呈正相关，与生活满意度呈负相关。残差居中的调节线性回归结果表明，孤独感和生活满意度调节了 "反碎片化 "与 Instagram feed 和故事成瘾症状之间的联系。本研究就这些发现对预防和管理成年人数字成瘾的实际意义进行了讨论。
