Abstract

Since social networking become more and more prevalent, it has become part of people’s daily life, quietly influencing people. Also, social networking site provides a stable platform for “public display of affection” behavior. Couples are likely to do so. However, they don’t realize how it will influence people negatively receive it. In order to discover the relationship between bystander’s life satisfaction and passively acceptance of “public display of affection”, and the role of self-esteem. 94 participants were recruited, which were mainly college students. The conclusions are as below. (1) The higher the degree of passive acceptance of “Public display of affection”, the lower the individual’s satisfaction of life and self-esteem. (2) Self-esteem has a mediating effect between the degree of passive acceptance of “Public display of affection” and subjects’ satisfaction of life. The higher degree of passive acceptance of “show off love” will cause a decline in individual self-esteem and ultimately reduce one’s satisfaction of life.
