Through online social networks (OSNs), individuals establish and maintain social connections to satisfy their need to belong. Recent research suggests that taken too far, one's need to belong can increase envy and lead to maladaptive social media behavior aligned with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). This study examines the role of two personality traits, one's intrinsic need to belong and trait reactance, on feelings of envy and the self-disclosure processes that lead to OCD on social networks. A sample of 354 U.S. adult users of Facebook completed a survey measuring individuals' need to belong, trait reactance, envy, self-disclosure, and OSN-OCD. Regression analyses reveal that need to belong and trait reactance both independently and interactively relate to envy, and that self-disclosure mediates the relationship between envy and OCD on social networks. Those with low trait reactance appear at the lowest risk of OSN-OCD no matter their need to belong. The highest risk profile for online OCD is found in those with both high trait reactance and high need to belong. Overall, our findings support further exploration of one's intrinsic need to belong and trait reactance as personality indicators of risk for OSN-OCD.

个性、自我表露和嫉妒在适应不良的社交媒体参与中的作用。

通过在线社交网络（OSN），个人建立并维持社会联系以满足他们的归属需要。最近的研究表明，过度的归属感会增加嫉妒，并导致与强迫症 (OCD) 相关的社交媒体适应不良行为。这项研究探讨了两种人格特质（一个人的内在归属需要和特质抗拒）对嫉妒感和导致社交网络强迫症的自我表露过程的作用。以 354 名美国 Facebook 成年用户为样本，完成了一项调查，衡量个人的归属需要、特质抗拒、嫉妒、自我表露和 OSN-OCD。回归分析表明，归属需要和特质抗拒既独立又交互地与嫉妒相关，而自我表露在社交网络上调节嫉妒与强迫症之间的关系。那些具有低特质抗拒性的人，无论他们是否需要归属感，患 OSN-OCD 的风险都是最低的。在线强迫症的风险最高的是那些同时具有高特质抗拒和高归属需求的人。总的来说，我们的研究结果支持进一步探索一个人的内在归属需要和特质抗拒作为 OSN-OCD 风险的人格指标。
