  AUTHORS: Jinliang Wang, Haizhen Wang

  KEYWORDS: Online Communication, Subjective Well-Being, Adolescent

  JOURNAL NAME: Psychology, Vol.2 No.4, July 25, 2011

  ABSTRACT: Based on theories and previous studies on online communication, we proposed two hypotheses to better under- stand the effects of online communication on subjective well-being with a sample of Chinese adolescents (n = 190). The results of liner regression analysis found that online communication was positively related to adoles- cents’ subjective well-being. For boys, the coefficient of determination of online communication on subjective well-being was .143, and for girls the coefficient of determination was .040, indicating that boys benefit more from online communication than do girls.
