The use of online social networks (OSNs) has increasingly attracted attention from scholars’ in different disciplines. Recently, student behaviors in online social networks have been extensively examined. However, limited efforts have been made to evaluate and systematically review the current research status to provide insights into previous study findings. Accordingly, this study conducted a systematic literature review on student behavior and OSNs to explicate to what extent students behave on these platforms. This study reviewed 104 studies to discuss the research focus and examine trends along with the important theories and research methods utilized. Moreover, the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model was utilized to classify the factors that influence student behavior. This study’s results demonstrate that the number of studies that address student behaviors on OSNs have recently increased. Moreover, the identified studies focused on five research streams, including academic purpose, cyber victimization, addiction, personality issues, and knowledge sharing behaviors. Most of these studies focused on the use and effect of OSNs on student academic performance. Most importantly, the proposed study framework provides a theoretical basis for further research in this context.

在线社交网络（OSN）的使用越来越受到不同学科学者的关注。最近，在线社交网络中的学生行为已得到广泛研究。但是，已经做出了有限的努力来评估和系统地审查当前的研究状态，以提供对先前研究结果的见识。因此，本研究对学生的行为和OSN进行了系统的文献综述，以阐明学生在这些平台上的行为程度。这项研究回顾了104项研究，讨论了研究重点并研究了趋势以及重要的理论和研究方法。此外，刺激有机体反应（SOR）模型被用来对影响学生行为的因素进行分类。这项研究的结果表明，针对学生在OSN上的行为的研究数量最近有所增加。此外，确定的研究集中在五个研究流中，包括学术目的，网络受害，成瘾，人格问题和知识共享行为。这些研究大多数集中在OSN对学生学习成绩的使用和影响上。最重要的是，提出的研究框架为在这种情况下的进一步研究提供了理论基础。
