Abstract

Previous research suggests that Internet use may be associated with decreases in well‐being among adolescents. However, there has been little investigation of the relationship between well‐being and social aspects of Internet use. In the present study, 130 7th graders from a middle‐class public school in California completed dispositional measures of well‐being, and on three subsequent evenings they responded to questions regarding their Internet use (including detailed logs of instant messages) and daily well‐being. Time spent on‐line was not associated with dispositional or daily well‐being. However, as suggested by intimacy theory, the closeness of instant message communication partners was associated with daily social anxiety and loneliness in school, above and beyond the contribution of dispositional measures.

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.
