Summary: Objective of the study was to examine the impact of SNS use on depression among graduate students and investigate the role of negative social comparison and implicit personality theory. Data was collected from 1792 graduate students in Wuhan, using measures of SNS use intensity, negative social comparison, implicit personality theory, and CES-D. Results showed positive correlation between SNS use, negative social comparison, and depression. Negative social comparison mediated the relationship between SNS use and depression, and this mediation effect was moderated by an individual's implicit personality theory. Specifically, entity theorists showed a stronger mediation effect, while incremental theorists buffered the depressive effect of negative social comparison. In conclusion, negative social comparison mediates the link between SNS use and depression, and individual differences in implicit personality theory moderate this relationship.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of age on social media use and personal health, examining the intervention of regular exercise (REx) on social media addiction (SMA) and internet use (IU). Results showed that SMA positively influenced IU and could negatively affect perceived health (PH), while REx had a moderating effect on SMA and IU. However, REx did not regulate the impact of SMA on PH, indicating that the negative health effects of SMA may not solely be attributed to prolonged internet usage.

Summary: Phubbing is detrimental to relationships and well-being. However, little research has examined the causes and mechanisms for phubbing, particularly the role of social anxiety. This study investigated the relationship between social anxiety and phubbing, the mediating role of problematic social networking, and the moderating effect of family socioeconomic status. Data from 1379 undergraduates supported the positive association between social anxiety and phubbing, the mediating role of problematic social networking, and the moderating effect of family socioeconomic status. These findings provide new insights into understanding phubbing and highlight the importance of uncovering the underlying mechanisms.
