摘要

With the rapidly development of mobile network, social network gradually becomes new social communication medium. It may influences undergraduates views of love and marriage to some extent, which include standards of choosing spouse, attitudes towards sex and the goal of love. This paper adopts questionnaire survey to investigate the relationship between social network usage and college students' views on love and marriage. The result shows that social network dependence is highly correlated with college students' standard of choosing a spouse and acceptance of premarital sexual behavior. The social network usage frequency is negatively correlated with motivational strength of finding a life partner as the goal of love.
