The Basic Characteristics Of Network Interpersonal Communication: Advantages And Disadvantages

Human beings are entering the Internet age.

This unprecedented revolution of information technology has caused changes in the way of production and life in the whole society.

From the perspective of interpersonal relationships, the network gives people new social connections and their relationships and structures. It fundamentally changes the traditional way of social interaction and interpersonal communication from time and space, and forms many unique concepts and norms.

At the same time, the development of computer network has brought about many social problems such as politics, law, ethics, and so on. It has directly affected human communication and forced people to re-examine their own time and society.

Pros and cons


The Internet provides a special space for human interaction, which is decided by this particularity.

Online interpersonal communication

Different from the new characteristics of real social life.

Grasping these new characteristics will help people to expand communication space correctly and healthily and establish new interpersonal relationship.

Compared with traditional society, network interpersonal communication has the following advantages

Basic characteristics

:


First, openness and pluralism.

Network communication pcends the limitation of time and space, eliminates the boundary between "here" and "there", expands interpersonal communication and interpersonal relationship, and makes interpersonal relationship more open.

The birth of "electronic community" enables people living in different places to "interact" and entertain together.

At the same time, the continuous expansion of contacts will inevitably lead to the development of pluralistic and complex social relations.


The two is autonomy and randomness.

Each member in the network can participate in the manufacture and dissemination of information to the maximum extent. This makes the members of the network almost without external constraints and more autonomy.

At the same time, the network is built on the purpose of resource sharing and mutual benefit. Netizens have the right to decide what to do and how to do. But because of the lack of necessary constraint mechanism, netizens must "manage themselves". Therefore, some people will indulge themselves on the Internet, commit to lie or hurt others, some people will even play a variety of roles, and make false interaction with others on the Internet, resulting in the great randomness of online communication.


The three is indirectness and universality.

One way to change the way people interact with each other is to make people communicate with each other face-to-face and interact with each other.

This indirect nature also determines the universality of network communication.

In the past, the limitation of time and space has always been the main obstacle for people to engage in wider exchanges. In the Internet society, this obstacle has ceased to exist, so long as you are willing, you can directly talk to anyone on the Internet.


The four is non reality and anonymity.

The definition of interpersonal communication and interpersonal relationship in network society has broken through the connotation of traditional interpersonal communication and interpersonal relationship.

On the Internet, people can "enter anonymously". There is no direct face-to-face contact between netizens. This makes it easier to break through the traditional factors such as age, sex, physiognomy, health status, social status, identity and background.

When some netizens communicate online, they often play virtual roles which are very different from their actual identity and personality characteristics.

For example, a five foot strong man can disguise himself as a young girl and play a love comedy with other netizens. Once he breaks his reputation, he can easily change his name to new faces.

Under such circumstances, many netizens often face different roles and role conflicts under the Internet. They are prone to psychological crisis and even double or multiple personality disorders.

The five is equality.

Because the network has no center, no direct leadership and management structure, no hierarchy and privileges, every netizen may become the center. Therefore, the contact and communication between people become more equal, and the equality consciousness and rights consciousness of individuals are further strengthened.

People can make use of the unique interactive functions of the network to communicate, create and use various kinds of information resources for interpersonal communication.

Although the "digital divide" still exists, many people in "information remote areas" do not have the chance to participate in the network interpersonal interaction, but in general, equality is still the main feature of network interpersonal relationship.


The six is anomie.

The development of the network world has opened up a new field of interpersonal communication, and has also formed corresponding norms.

In addition to some technical rules (such as file pfer protocol, internet protocol, etc.), network behavior, like other social behaviors, requires moral norms and principles, so there are some basic rural regulations, such as the format of electronic mail, the etiquette of online conversation and so on.

However, judging from the current situation, most of the network rules are limited to ethics and morality, while the norms governing specific behaviors of interpersonal interaction are not yet perfect, and lack of maneuverability and effective means of control.

This will easily lead to disorder and anomie of network communication.

In fact, the network society is full of competition and conflict, and there will be criminal activities from time to time. This requires a certain social morality and legal norms to adjust network interpersonal relationships, so as to maintain normal network order.


The seven is the alienation of interpersonal emotion.

The global and developed means of pmission of information on the Internet have made space for people to communicate with each other, and at the same time alienated the feelings between people in the real society.

Although fictitious online communication can help people get rid of the real troubles and find temporary sustenance, they can not really satisfy the emotional needs of living people, but some people tend to have a greater sense of alienation in real life because they are too addicted to the virtual world.


The eight is the crisis of confidence.

The interpersonal communication mode of network virtualization makes many netizens often take part in the online communication with the mentality of the game, which leads to the trust crisis on the Internet even more than the real society.

At the same time, when some netizens encounter setbacks in real life, they will adopt the attitude of "trust the machine rather than trust people" and indulge in "virtual time and space", unwilling to face the real life.


The Internet is a double-edged sword. It can not only bring convenience and high quality social life to people, but also bring huge negative effects.

This raises a question: how to deal with and adjust the interpersonal relationship on the Internet? To solve this problem, we need to comprehensively investigate various factors such as science and technology, productivity, people and society, so as to overcome the negative effects of technology and overcome the limitations of human beings simultaneously.

To establish a universal network interpersonal norms, it is necessary to maintain the free and smooth operation of the network, and to prevent excessive violations of the behavior of the intercourse between users. Secondly, to strengthen the construction of network ethics, to give more moral attention to network technology, and not to allow the moral disorder of the information society; third, to formulate and perfect relevant laws and regulations to maintain network interpersonal order, to combat cyber crime; fourth, to strengthen the psychological research on interpersonal communication and man-machine cooperation by computer intervention, to popularize mental health knowledge through Internet; fifth, to strengthen network education and control, to highlight the unique cooperation and dedication of the network; sixth, to use network specific "virtual group" environment to help network participants experience multiple roles of society and establish new social relations.
