Increasingly, young people are using various forms of technology in the service of communicating with others, and many have noted the possibility of various dire consequences of this phenomenon, including sexting, cyberbullying, online harassment, and Internet addiction. In our own survey of over 300 adolescents, we found that texting and face-to-face communication were considered the most "convenient" forms of communication, while face-to-face communication and phone conversations were perceived as most likely to lead to "feeling understood" and "feeling intimate." Face-to-face communication and texting were perceived as most likely to result in feeling regret for sharing too much information. By choosing to communicate through technology, many young people, including our patients, can continue to be social and, at the same time, keep a somewhat safer emotional distance.
越来越多的年轻人使用各种形式的技术来与他人交流，许多人已经注意到这种现象可能带来各种可怕的后果，包括发送色情短信、网络欺凌、网络骚扰和网络成瘾。在我们对 300 多名青少年的调查中，我们发现发短信和面对面交流被认为是最“方便”的交流方式，而面对面交流和电话交谈被认为最有可能让人“感到被理解”和“感到亲密”。面对面交流和发短信被认为最有可能让人后悔分享了太多信息。通过选择通过技术进行交流，许多年轻人，包括我们的患者，可以继续保持社交，同时保持一定的情感距离，相对安全一些。
