The present study investigates how excessive smartphone use predicts users' stress and loneliness while taking the moderating role of online self-disclosure into account. We conducted a two-wave panel survey with a quota sample of smartphone users ( = 461 at time 2 [T2]). We found no direct effects of excessive smartphone use on stress or loneliness. However, our results showed that online self-disclosure moderates the postulated relationships. That is, excessive smartphone use (time 1 [T1]) predicts increased stress (T2), for those smartphone users who do engage in little online self-disclosure. However, for those who communicate their feelings, anxieties, and problems online, excessive smartphone use (T1) can even reduce loneliness (T2) and relieve stress (T2).
本研究调查了过度使用智能手机如何预测用户的压力和孤独感，同时考虑到在线自我表露的调节作用。我们采用了具有智能手机用户配额样本的两波面板调查（第二次调查时为 461 人[T2]）。我们没有发现过度使用智能手机直接对压力或孤独感产生影响。然而，我们的结果表明，在线自我表露调节了假设的关系。也就是说，过度使用智能手机（T1）预测那些很少进行在线自我表露的智能手机用户的压力增加（T2）。然而，对于那些在网上表达自己的感受、焦虑和问题的人来说，过度使用智能手机（T1）甚至可以减少孤独感（T2）和缓解压力（T2）。
