Social networking services (SNSs) are useful tools; however, problematic use leads to mental health problems. This study aimed to examine whether SNS addiction is associated with occupational dysfunction while considering the effects of depression. This cross-sectional study included 268 undergraduates who responded to the questionnaire on the frequency and time of SNS use, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), SNS-X scale, and the Classification and Assessment of Occupational Dysfunction (CAOD). Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed effect of the SNS-X score for Instagram was significant (β = 0.174, = .001) adjusted by the CES-D total score. However, the effect of frequency and time of SNS use were not significant. This suggests that SNS addiction, and not SNS use, is a factor associated with occupational dysfunction that should be emphasized and depression.
社交网络服务（SNS）是有用的工具；然而，不当使用会导致心理健康问题。本研究旨在探讨在考虑抑郁症影响的情况下，SNS成瘾是否与职业功能障碍有关。这项横断面研究纳入了268名本科生，他们回答了关于SNS使用频率和时间、流行病学研究中心抑郁量表（CES-D）、SNS-X量表以及职业功能障碍分类与评估（CAOD）的问卷。分层多元回归分析显示，经CES-D总分调整后，Instagram的SNS-X得分的影响显著（β = 0.174，p =.001）。然而，SNS使用频率和时间的影响并不显著。这表明，与职业功能障碍相关且应予以重视的因素是SNS成瘾，而非SNS使用，以及抑郁症。
