摘要

本研究基于社交媒体使用理论和目标导向理论，探讨了社交媒体使用对研究生创造力的 "双刃剑 "效应。本研究的参与者为中国湘潭大学的 262 名研究生（女性 = 54.2%，研究生三年级 = 29.4%，管理专业 = 22.1%）。参与者完成了两轮调查，每轮调查间隔一周。结构方程模型的研究结果表明，社交媒体的使用通过知识获取间接提高了研究生的创造力，并降低了网络闲散率。学习目标导向越高，社交媒体使用率和知识获取率就越高，而网络闲散率就越低。这些发现为支持研究生合理使用社交媒体以提高学习成绩提供了有价值的指导。

The “double-edged sword” effect of social media usage on postgraduate student creativity

Based on the social media use theory and goal orientation theory, this study explored the “double-edged sword” effect of social media usage on postgraduate student creativity. Participants in the study were 262 postgraduate students from Xiangtan University in China (females = 54.2%, postgraduate third grade = 29.4%, major in management = 22.1%). The participants completed two waves of surveys one week apart. Findings from a structural equation model indicated that social media usage indirectly enhanced postgraduate student creativity through knowledge acquisition, and lowered cyberloafing. Social media usage and knowledge acquisition were higher with higher learning goal orientation, and lower with cyberloafing. These findings provided valuable guidance for supporting postgraduate students in their rational use of social media for improved learning outcomes.
