Original dataset for SBP

Problematic social media use (PSMU) is a growing societal concern; however, its prevalence remains uncertain due to differences in research tools and assessment criteria employed. Therefore, we evaluated the prevalence and predictive factors of PSMU through a comprehensive survey of 400 college students, assessing depression, anxiety, the personality traits of extraversion and neuroticism, fear of missing out (FOMO), childhood psychological neglect, and PSMU. Correlation and regression analyses were used to investigate the factors associated with PSMU. The prevalence of PSMU was found to be 1.5%. Anxiety, neuroticism, FOMO, and childhood psychological neglect predicted PSMU in our hierarchical regression model. Hence, reducing anxiety and FOMO may help alleviate PSMU tendencies. We recommend that parents prioritize the provision of high-quality companionship and proactively address their children’s psychological needs.

问题性社交媒体使用（Problematic Social Media Use, PSMU）已成为日益凸显的社会公共关切问题，但由于各研究采用的工具与评估标准存在差异，其流行患病率仍未明确。为此，本研究通过对400名大学生开展的综合调查，对PSMU的流行率及预测因素进行了评估，同步测评了抑郁、焦虑、外倾性与神经质人格特质、错失恐惧（Fear of Missing Out, FOMO）、童年心理忽视情况以及PSMU水平。本研究采用相关分析与回归分析方法，探究与PSMU相关的影响因素。研究结果显示，PSMU的整体流行率为1.5%。层级回归模型分析表明，焦虑、神经质、错失恐惧以及童年心理忽视均可有效预测PSMU的发生。据此，缓解焦虑与错失恐惧或可减轻个体的问题性社交媒体使用倾向。本研究建议家长应优先为子女提供高质量陪伴，并主动关注并满足其心理需求。
