摘要

这项研究调查了老年脸书用户的生活质量（QoL）与其脸书使用量、脸书网络特征（即网络规模和实际朋友的百分比）以及参与脸书关系维护行为（FRMB）的倾向之间的关系。对472名年龄在65岁以上的美国成年人的抽样结果显示了一系列小的相关性。脸书上每天的分钟数与身体和环境健康呈负相关。老年人的Facebook网络总规模与身体、心理和社会健康呈正相关；同时，他们在Facebook上的实际好友比例与生活质量的四个维度都呈正相关。老年人的FRMB与心理、社会和环境健康呈正相关。

General, Network, and Communicative Characteristics of Facebook Use in Relation to Quality of Life during Older Adulthood

This study examined associations between older adult Facebook users’ quality of life (QoL) and their amount of Facebook use, Facebook network characteristics (i.e., network size and percentage of actual friends), and tendency to engage in Facebook relational maintenance behaviors (FRMB). Results from a sample of 472 American adults aged 65+ years revealed a set of small correlations. Minutes per day on Facebook was negatively associated with physical and environmental health. Older adults’ total Facebook network size displayed positive associations with physical, psychological, and social health; meanwhile, their percentage of actual friends on Facebook was positively related to all four dimensions of QoL. Older adults’ FRMBs were positively related to psychological, social, and environmental health.

期刊介绍： Communication Reports (CR), published biannually since 1988, is one of two scholarly journals of the Western States Communication Association (WSCA). The journal publishes original manuscripts that are short, data/text-based, and related to the broadly defined field of human communication. The mission of the journal is to showcase exemplary scholarship without censorship based on topics, methods, or analytical tools. Articles that are purely speculative or theoretical, and not data analytic, are not appropriate for this journal. Authors are expected to devote a substantial portion of the manuscript to analyzing and reporting research data.
