An online survey (N=256) compared social networking site (SNS) use among younger (millennial: 18-29) and older (baby-boomer: 41-64) subscribers focusing on the influence of collective self-esteem and group identity on motives for SNS use. Younger participants reported higher positive collective self-esteem, social networking site use for peer communication, and social compensation. Regardless of age, participants reporting high collective self-esteem and group identity were more likely to use social networking sites for peer communication and social identity gratifications, while those reporting negative collective self-esteem were more likely to use social networking sites for social compensation. The theoretical implications of the strong relationship between social identity gratifications and social compensation are discussed.
一项在线调查（N = 256）比较了年轻（千禧一代：18 - 29岁）和年长（婴儿潮一代：41 - 64岁）订阅者对社交网站（SNS）的使用情况，重点关注集体自尊和群体认同对SNS使用动机的影响。年轻参与者报告的积极集体自尊、用于同伴交流的社交网站使用情况和社交补偿更高。无论年龄如何，报告集体自尊和群体认同较高的参与者更有可能将社交网站用于同伴交流和社会身份满足，而报告消极集体自尊的参与者更有可能将社交网站用于社交补偿。文中讨论了社会身份满足与社交补偿之间紧密关系的理论意义。
