• Abstract: To examine the relationship between online social preference and loneliness among young students, this study used questionnaire data from 1,215 young students to investigate differences in online social preference and loneliness, and further analyzed the predictive effects of online social preference and its dimensions on loneliness. The results showed that, first, students at different educational stages differed significantly in perceived online disinhibition, perceived benefits of online social interaction, perceived controllability, real-life social competence, total online social preference, and total loneliness, indicating that educational stage is an important factor influencing students’ online social experience and loneliness. Second, total online social preference was significantly and positively correlated with loneliness. Perceived online disinhibition, perceived benefits of online social interaction, and real-life social competence were also significantly and positively correlated with loneliness. Third, regression analysis showed that total online social preference had a significant positive predictive effect on loneliness. Among the four dimensions of online social preference, real-life social competence had the strongest explanatory power for loneliness. The findings suggest that online social preference among young students is not merely a media-use habit, but a psychosocial phenomenon closely related to real-life social adaptation, emotional expression, and access to social support. To reduce loneliness among young students, it is necessary not only to guide online social behavior appropriately, but also to strengthen the cultivation of real-life social competence and the development of supportive interpersonal relationships. 为探讨青年学生网络社交偏好与孤独感之间的关系，本研究基于1215份青年学生问卷数据，考察学生在网络社交偏好与孤独感的差异，并进一步分析网络社交偏好及其各维度对孤独感的预测作用。结果显示：第一，不同在读情况学生在线去抑制性感知、网络社交效益感知、可控制性感知、现实社交能力、网络社交偏好总分和孤独感总分上均存在显著差异，说明教育阶段是影响青年学生网络社交体验和孤独感的重要变量。第二，回归分析表明，网络社交偏好总分对孤独感具有显著正向预测作用。研究认为，青年学生网络社交偏好并非单纯的媒介使用习惯，而是与现实社交适应、情绪表达和社会支持获得密切相关的心理社会现象。缓解青年学生孤独感，应在合理引导网络社交行为的同时，更加重视现实社交能力培养和支持性人际关系建设。
