This research aims to analyze the chain-mediated effect of the different types of psychological distances (social, temporal, spatial, and probability) and the variables of the Social Identity Model of Collective Action (SIMCA) on the relationship between the use of social media and violent environmental collective action. The study sample consisted of 650 university students ( M = 20.8, SD = 2.74) aged 18–35 years from Lima. Analyses were conducted by means of structural equation modeling (SEM) using the AMOS SPSS software, where a statistical model was performed for each type of psychological distance. The findings revealed two statistically significant paths that go from social media to violent environmental collective action, mediated, first, by each of the psychological distances and, second, by social identity and negative emotions (anger and fear). In addition, it was observed that only probability distance on its own acted as a mediator in the relationship between social media and violent environmental collective action. It was also observed that a path from social media to violent environmental collective action was mediated, first, by three types of distances (probability, spatial, and temporal) and, second, by participative efficacy.

秘鲁的社交媒体、心理距离和环境集体行动


本研究旨在分析不同类型的心理距离（社会、时间、空间和概率）和集体行动社会认同模型（SIMCA）变量对社交媒体使用之间关系的链式中介效应。和暴力环境集体行动。研究样本由 650 名来自利马的 18-35 岁大学生（M = 20.8，SD = 2.74）组成。使用 AMOS SPSS 软件通过结构方程建模 (SEM) 进行分析，其中针对每种类型的心理距离建立了统计模型。研究结果揭示了从社交媒体到暴力环境集体行动的两条统计上显着的路径，首先是每个心理距离，其次是社会认同和负面情绪（愤怒和恐惧）。此外，据观察，只有概率距离本身在社交媒体与暴力环境集体行动之间的关系中起中介作用。研究还发现，从社交媒体到暴力环境集体行动的路径首先受到三种距离（概率、空间和时间）的调节，其次受到参与效能的调节。
