    Blogging may have psychological(心理的) benefits for teens suffering from social anxiety, improving their self-esteem and helping them relate better to their friends, according to the new research published by the American Psychological Association. "Research has shown that writing a personal diary and other forms of expressive writing are a great way to release emotional stress and just feel better," said the study's lead author, Meyran Boniel-Nissim, PhD, of the University of Haifa, Israel. "Teens are online anyway, so blogging enables free expression and easy communication with others."

    Blogging has a stronger positive effect on troubled students' well-being than merely expressing their social anxieties and concerns in a private diary, according to the article published online in the APA journal Psychological Services. Opening the blog up to comments from the online community strengthens those effects.

    The researchers randomly surveyed high school students in Israel, who had agreed to fill out a questionnaire about their feelings on the quality of their social relationships. A total of 161 students -- 124 girls and 37 boys, with an average age of 15 -- were selected because their scores on the survey showed they all had some level of social anxiety or stress. All the teens reported difficulty in making friends or relating to the friends they had. The researchers assessed the teens' self-esteem, everyday social activities and behaviors before, immediately after and two months after the 10-week experiment.

    Four groups of students were assigned to blog. Two of those groups were told to focus their posts on their social problems, with one group opening the posts to comments; the other two groups could write about whatever they wanted and, again, one group opened the blog up to comments. The number and content of comments were not evaluated for this experiment. The students could respond to comments but that was not required. Two more groups acted as controls -- either writing a private diary about their social problems or doing nothing. Participants in the writing and blogging groups were told to post messages at least twice a week for 10 weeks.

    Four experts, who held master's or doctor’s degrees in consulting and psychology, assessed the bloggers' social and emotional condition via their blog posts. Students were assessed as having a poor social and emotional state if they wrote a lot about personal problems or bad relationships or showed evidence of low self-esteem.

    Self-esteem, social anxiety, emotional stress and the number of positive social behaviors improved significantly for the bloggers when compared to the teens who did nothing and those who wrote private diaries. Bloggers who were instructed to write specifically about their difficulties and whose blogs were open to comments improved the most. All of these results agreed with the two- month follow-up.

    The authors admitted that the skewed（有偏向的） sex rate was a limitation to the study. However, the researchers analyzed the results separately by gender and found that boys and girls reacted similarly to the experiment and there were no major differences. However, they said future research should attempt to control the subjects sex.

    46. The selection of students for the experiment was largely based on____.　　　　　
    　 A. their social relationships　　　　 B. their self-esteem
    　　 C. their problems in social life　　 D. their willingness to fill out a questionnaire
    47. What’s the function of “controls” (Paragraph 4) in the experiment?
    　　 A. To write down some social problems in a private diary.
    　　 B. To post messages to the blog and respond to comments.
    　　 C. To help evaluate the number and content of blog comments.
    　　 D. To offer a comparison for checking the experimental result.
    48. From the experiment we can know that____.

    A. writing private diaries makes no difference to the relief of one’s emotional stress.

    B. teenagers opening their blogs up to comments have more psychological benefits.

    C. the positive effects of expressing one’s emotions by blogging don’t last very long.

    D. those describing bad relationships on blogs tend to develop more mental problems.

    49. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

    A. The authors insisted that all the research findings were accurate.
    B. Sex rate had been taken into account before the survey was conducted.

    C. The authors were intended to improve the experiment in the future.
    D. Similar reactions of boys and girls indicated the failure of the experiment.
