In this study, we examined the relationships between the use of online dating applications (apps), online victimization, and psychosocial distress among adolescents. This study was conducted in 2020. A sample of 2595 seventh-grade students from 30 Taiwanese middle schools was surveyed. We conducted a self-administered survey. Overall, 15% of the adolescents reported using online dating apps in the past year, while 78% reported having seen dating app advertisements on the internet in the past year. Multivariate analysis results indicated that adolescents' exposure to the marketing of dating apps and poor academic performance were both associated with the use of online dating apps. Adolescents who used dating apps were more likely to experience online privacy victimization, cyberbullying victimization, and online sexual harassment. The use of dating apps by adolescents, online privacy victimization, cyberbullying victimization, and online sexual harassment were associated with higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. In conclusion, adolescent use of dating apps is related to online victimization and psychological distress.
在本研究中,我们考察了青少年使用在线约会应用程序(应用)、在线受害情况与心理社会困扰之间的关系。本研究于2020年进行。对来自30所台湾中学的2595名七年级学生进行了抽样调查。我们开展了一项自填式调查。总体而言,15%的青少年报告在过去一年中使用过在线约会应用,而78%的青少年报告在过去一年中在互联网上看到过约会应用广告。多变量分析结果表明,青少年接触约会应用营销以及学业成绩不佳均与使用在线约会应用有关。使用约会应用的青少年更有可能经历在线隐私受害、网络欺凌受害和在线性骚扰。青少年使用约会应用、在线隐私受害、网络欺凌受害和在线性骚扰都与更高水平的抑郁、焦虑和压力有关。总之,青少年使用约会应用与在线受害和心理困扰有关。
