摘要

英国为应对 COVID-19 大流行而实施的封锁涉及到前所未有的 "数字化转变"，包括非同居者之间的关系。本文基于 2021-2022 年期间对英格兰年轻人进行的 14 个焦点小组（n = 80）和访谈（n = 38），研究了年轻人对封锁期间在恋爱关系中使用网络通信技术（NCT）的看法和经验。利用批判现实主义理论，我们确定了作为一种条件的封锁、NCT 的可负担性以及更广泛的关系规范、意义和期望之间的相互作用。参与者对于在封锁期间进行在线互动的态度是矛盾的，其中既有特定于封锁条件的风险，也有超越封锁条件的机遇。讨论了在大流行期间和之后，后数字关系对年轻人的意义和体验的影响。

Young people’s ‘post-digital’ relationships during COVID-19 ‘lockdowns’ in England

The lockdown imposed in England in response to the COVID-19 pandemic involved an unprecedented ‘shift to digital’, including in relationships between non-cohabiting individuals. This article examines young people’s perspectives on and experiences of using networked communication technologies (NCTs) in romantic relationships during lockdown, based on 14 focus groups (n = 80) and interviews (n = 38) conducted with young people in England during 2021–2022. Using critical realist theory, we identify interplays between lockdown as a condition, NCT affordances and wider norms, meanings and expectations for relationships. Participants were ambivalent about interacting online during lockdown, with interlocking risks and opportunities specific to and transcending lockdown as a condition. Implications are discussed regarding meanings and experiences of post-digital relationships for young people, both during and post-pandemic.
