Abstract

This study provided preliminary evidence for a new Social Media Identity Distress Scale (SMIDS) using two subsamples of emerging adults (18-25 years of age) from Amazon Turk (each n = 373). The factor analysis revealed a single-factor scale explaining 72.9% of the variance in the items and supported a 20-item version of the original 66-item instrument. The evidence of convergent validity and reliability supported using the SMIDS as a potential instrument to evaluate the mental stress regarding the ability to create a coherent self-concept while engaging in social media activities experienced by emerging adults. Implications for practice and future directions of research are provided.

新兴成年人社交媒体身份困扰量表的开发和初步验证

摘要

本研究使用来自亚马逊土耳其人的两个新兴成年人(18-25 岁)子样本(每个n  = 373)为新的社交媒体身份困扰量表 (SMIDS) 提供了初步证据。因子分析显示单因子量表解释了项目中 72.9% 的方差,并支持原始 66 个项目工具的 20 个项目版本。收敛效度和可靠性的证据支持使用 SMIDS 作为评估心理压力的潜在工具,这些压力与新兴成年人在参与社交媒体活动时创建连贯的自我概念的能力有关。提供了对实践和未来研究方向的影响。
