The study explored the intricate interplay among interpersonal sensitivity, social anxiety, and social networking site (SNS) use within the college students from selected Chinese universities.Utilizing a random sampling approach, data was collected via an online questionnaire from young adults in Jiangxi Province.The majority of participants were male freshmen studying science, hailing from rural backgrounds and having siblings, showcasing varied levels of interpersonal sensitivity and moderate engagement with SNS.Moreover, analysis unveiled significant correlations: gender and academic grade impacted interaction anxiety, whereas gender influenced interpersonal sensitivity.Conversely, no notable differences emerged based on academic major, geographic origin, or sibling status regarding interaction anxiety, interpersonal sensitivity, or SNS usage.Positive associations were observed between interaction anxiety and interpersonal sensitivity, interpersonal sensitivity and SNS use, and interaction anxiety and SNS use.In response to these findings, stakeholders are advised to adopt proactive measures.Educational institutions should prioritize mental health services tailored to addressing interpersonal sensitivity and social anxiety among students.Educators are encouraged to integrate discussions on the psychological implications of SNS usage into the curriculum to foster healthier online behaviors.Parents are urged to engage openly with their children about their social media habits and mental well-being.Healthcare providers should stay abreast of evolving SNS trends and their potential impact on mental health.Policymakers are called upon to advocate for policies that promote digital well-being within educational settings.Lastly, colleges are recommended to consider implementing the proposed intervention plan designed to support students' mental health and encourage responsible SNS usage.
