Abstract

Conflicting findings have emerged from the large number of studies on the relationship of online media use (OMU) and users’ perceived social resources (PSR). In contrast to the numerous primary studies, a comprehensive meta-analysis on the relationship between the use of different online media and PSR has been lacking to date. The findings presented are based on 342 effect sizes from 63 studies and represent data from over 35,500 individuals. The results reveal a small and positive relationship between the two variables. Detailed analyses suggest that the use of different online media, as well as the measurement of OMU and PSR, might affect the relationships obtained. Implications and directions for theoretical development and empirical research are also discussed.

Social support was the only outcome to show consistently beneficial associations with SMU.
“In contrast, social support was the only outcome to show consistently beneficial associations”
From Are active and passive social media use related to mental health, wellbeing, and social support outcomes? A meta-analysis of 141 studies (2023) · cites this paper as Domahidi, 2018
In “Different concepts and dimensions of PSR” (page unavailable), the meta-analysis finds a positive association between online media use and perceived social support (r = .10, p ≤ .001). It does not support calling social support the only consistently beneficial outcome: perceived social capital also has a positive association, and the paper reports variation across media and measures of use.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
