本研究旨在探討大學生的網路使用與其寂寞及憂鬱的關係，並分析不同性別的大學生其網路使用與寂寞及憂鬱的關聯程度是否有顯著的差異存在。本研究以403位大學生為研究對象，以「網路使用問卷」、「寂寞量表」和「台灣人憂鬱症量表」為研究工具，一年內對大學生實施三次的測量，並以結構方程模式軟體進行潛在成長模式的資料分析。本研究的主要結果如下：1.網路使用與寂寞之間沒有顯著的關聯，但部分的網路使用活動與寂寞有顯著的關聯存在。2.網路使用與憂鬱的起始點之間有顯著的關聯，部分的網路使用活動也和憂鬱有顯著的關聯。3.男女生的網路使用和憂鬱的成長率之間的關聯程度有顯著差異，男生的憂鬱會隨著網路使用的增加而惡化，但女生則否。根據本研究結果，對教育與輔導，以及未來的研究方向提出建議。

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationships among Internet use, loneliness and depression, and the different correlations among Internet use, loneliness and depression for different genders. The subjects were 403 college students in Taiwan. Structural equation modeling with latent growth curve models was used to analyze the three waves of data. The results are as follows: 1. There is no significant correlation between Internet use and loneliness. However, there are significant correlations between some Internet activities and loneliness. 2. There are significant positive correlations between the initial status of Internet use and depression. And there are also significant correlations between some Internet activities and depression. 3. There are significant gender differences for the correlation between the growth rate of Internet use and depression. The depression of males gets worse as Internet use increases, while that of females does not. Suggestions and implications for education, counseling, and future research are discussed.
