微信朋友圈的自我呈现与身份焦虑

Self-Presentation and Identity Anxiety in the WeChat Moments

本论文探讨了微信朋友圈中的自我呈现与身份焦虑之间的关系。通过分析自我呈现的动机、形式以及身份焦虑的表现与心理机制,揭示了两者之间的复杂互动。研究发现,个体在微信朋友圈中通过展示生活状态、社交关系、思想观念和成就来构建自己的形象,寻求社会认可和自我提升。然而,这一过程中,个体容易因对他人评价的过度关注和虚拟形象的维护而产生身份焦虑。身份焦虑不仅是自我呈现的结果,也反过来影响个体的自我呈现行为,形成一个循环过程。为应对微信朋友圈中的身份焦虑,本文提出了一系列策略,包括提高自我认知与接纳、调整社交媒体使用习惯、增强心理弹性、寻求社会支持及发展多样化的兴趣和爱好等。这些策略旨在帮助个体更好地平衡自我展示与真实生活之间的关系,减少对虚拟社交评价的过度依赖,提升心理健康和生活满意度。本文的研究希望引起更多人对微信朋友圈自我呈现与身份焦虑问题的关注,促使个体在享受社交媒体带来便利和乐趣的同时,保持内心的平衡和宁静,实现更为健康和充实的生活。This thesis explores the relationship between self-presentation and identity anxiety in WeChat moments. By analysing the motives and forms of self-presentation as well as the manifestations and psychological mechanisms of identity anxiety, the complex interaction between the two is revealed. It is found that individuals seek social recognition and self-improvement by constructing their own image through presenting their life status, social relationships, ideologies and achievements in WeChat moments. However, in this process, individuals are prone to identity anxiety due to excessive attention to the evaluation of others and the maintenance of virtual images. Identity anxiety is not only a result of self-presentation, but also affects individuals’ self-presentation behaviours in turn, forming a cyclical process. In order to cope with identity anxiety in WeChat moments, this paper proposes a series of strategies, including improving self-knowledge and acceptance, adjusting social media use habits, enhancing psychological resilience, seeking social support and developing diverse interests and hobbies. These strategies aim to help individuals better balance the relationship between self-presentation and real life, reduce over-reliance on virtual social evaluations, and enhance psychological health and life satisfaction. The study in this paper hopes to draw more attention to the issue of self-presentation and identity anxiety in WeChat moments, and to motivate individuals to enjoy the convenience and fun of social media while maintaining their inner balance and serenity, and achieving a healthier and more fulfilling life.
