隨著數位科技快速發展，行動網路與社群媒體已深刻改變人們的人際互動與社交生活。大學生正處於由青少年邁向成年的重要階段，面對新的學習與生活環境，友誼的建立與維繫成為重要課題。在此過程中，通訊軟體與社群平台逐漸成為大學生進行社交與維繫關係的重要媒介，使其人際網絡呈現線上與線下交織的特性。然而，數位科技所帶來的便利性是否增進社交連結，或反而加深孤獨感與社交壓力，值得進一步探討。

本研究採質性研究方法，透過深度訪談及參與觀察蒐集資料，研究場域為北部某科技大學，共訪談11位日間部學生，其中男性5名、女性6名。為提升資料的多樣性與代表性，受訪者涵蓋不同科系、住宿型態及工讀狀態。

本研究旨在探討通訊軟體與社群平台如何影響大學生的人際關係網絡、社交連結及孤獨感經驗，並分析其如何在網路與現實之間調適人際關係與自我感受。

研究結果發現，大學生的社交生活呈現線上與線下交織的特性，人際關係仍以實體互動為核心，社群媒體與通訊軟體主要作為維繫與延伸既有人際關係的重要工具，而非取代面對面互動。雖然數位平台提升了聯繫的便利性與即時性，但在情感支持與親密關係建立方面，受訪大學生仍傾向透過實體接觸或即時互動獲得支持，顯示數位科技雖改變了人際互動的形式，但尚未取代實體互動在人際關係維繫與情感支持中的核心地位。

With the rapid development of digital technology, internet and social media have profoundly transformed interpersonal interactions and social life. University students are at a critical stage of transitioning from adolescence to adulthood, during which the formation and maintenance of friendships become important developmental tasks. In this process, communication applications and social media platforms have gradually become important tools for social interaction and relationship, resulting in social networks characterized by the integration of online and offline interactions. However, whether the convenience brought by digital technology enhances social connectedness or instead intensifies feelings of loneliness and social pressure remains an important issue for investigation.

This study adopts a qualitative research approach and collects data through in-depth interviews and participant observation. The research was conducted at a university of science and technology in northern Taiwan. A total of eleven full-time undergraduate students participated in the study, including five males and six females. To enhance the diversity and representativeness of the data, participants were selected from different majors, living arrangements, and part-time employment statuses.

The purpose of this study is to examine how communication applications and social media platforms influence university students’ interpersonal networks, social connectedness, and experiences of loneliness, and to explore how they negotiate interpersonal relationships and self-perceptions between online and offline environments.

The findings indicate that university students’ social lives are characterized by the integration of online and offline interactions, while interpersonal relationships remain primarily grounded in face-to-face communication. Social media and communication applications mainly function as tools for maintaining and extending existing relationships rather than replacing direct interpersonal interaction. Although digital platforms enhance the convenience and immediacy of communication, participants still tend to seek emotional support and develop intimate relationships through in-person contact or real-time interactions. The findings suggest that while digital technology has transformed the forms of interpersonal interaction, it has not replaced the central role of face-to-face interaction in maintaining interpersonal relationships and providing emotional support.
