摘要: 基于2021年江苏省中老年人互联网使用情况专项调查数据,分析互联网使用以及使用时间、内容、途径对中老年人孤独感的影响。研究发现,互联网使用对中老年人孤独感有显著的负向影响,使用时长6 h以上、以休闲学习为主的中老年人更不易产生孤独情绪,但使用途径对其孤独感的产生没有影响;异质性分析表明,互联网使用能降低70岁及以上老年人、低受教育程度中老年人及以休闲娱乐为主要使用内容的农村中老年人的孤独感发生几率。研究结果有助于理解数字时代中老年人互联网使用与其孤独感的复杂关联,为相关部门进一步开展中老年人互联网普及工作、引导互联网合理使用提供了新的理论支持。

Abstract: Based on the special survey data of internet usage of middle-aged and elderly people in Jiangsu Province in 2021, this paper analyzed the influence of internet usage,usage time,content and ways on loneliness of middle-aged and elderly people. It was found that internet use had a significant negative impact on loneliness of middle-aged and elderly people. Middle-aged and elderly people who used the internet for more than 6 hours and focused on leisure study were less likely to breed loneliness, but the way of use had no effect on their loneliness. Heterogeneity analysis showed that internet use could reduce the incidence of loneliness among the elderly aged 70 and above, middle-aged and elderly people with low education levels and middle-aged and elderly people in rural areas who mainly used the internet for leisure and entertainment. The results helped to understand the complex relationship between the internet use of middle-aged and elderly people and their loneliness in the digital age, and provided new theoretical support for relevant departments to further popularize the internet among middle-aged and elderly people and guide the rational use of the internet.

Key words: middle-aged and elderly people, internet use, loneliness, Logistic model, heterogeneity
