Abstract

At present, most of the researches on how might ICT impact well-being are focused on specific psychological result. This paper discusses how peer and parental loneliness might be affected by ICT mediated social network with the perspective of networked individualism and social captital theory. In order to solve the problem efficiently, we present a cross sectional study with the questionnaire to gain the data. As a result, people will combine EMAIL, IM, SNS to maintain their social network. In addition, the larger the mediated social network,the lower PEER AND PARENTAL loneliness. Whats more, the more friends in the EMAIL, IM, SNS friends , the lower PEER AND PARENTAL loneliness. Finally, the more family members in the EMAIL, IM, SNS, the higher PEER AND PARENTAL loneliness, and the more ordinary relationship in SNS, the lower the parent loneliness. The the result of the study indicates the assumption of the current study is effective and feasible.
