“躺平”对心理健康和幸福感的影响研究——基于2010-2021年微博面板数据分析

With the widespread emergence of the "lying flat" phenomenon in society, its impact on individual psychological health and well-being has become an important research topic. This study employs dictionary analysis and panel data modeling methods, utilizing Weibo data from 31 provinces/municipalities/autonomous regions in China between 2010 and 2021. A "lying flat" dictionary is constructed to quantify the degree of lying flat, and the study explores its effects on suicide risk, life satisfaction, and psychological well-being. The results show that the overall level of lying flat in the 31 provinces/municipalities/autonomous regions of China has shown an upward trend from 2010 to 2021. Furthermore, lying flat negatively predicts life satisfaction and psychological well-being, while positively predicting several sub-dimensions of suicide risk. This suggests that lying flat is not a positive coping mechanism; it undermines individual life satisfaction and psychological well-being, and increases suicide risk. This study provides new perspectives and empirical evidence for understanding the "lying flat" phenomenon and its psychological impacts, helping relevant departments and society at large to timely recognize and address the potential social consequences of the "lying flat" phenomenon.
