近年来，当社交网络都转向虚拟范式时，人们越来越关注社交媒体如何影响个人的认同感。在这个几乎每个年轻人都有社交媒体账号的数字时代，每个人都是在这个虚拟舞台上表演的演员。 新加坡华人社区的社会网络曾经是多维、色彩鲜艳的，然而与环境变化的影响以及社交媒体的渗透，导致社会网络从传统转向现代社会网络，也就是我们今天所用的社交网络站和社交媒体。新加坡华人今天的社会网络已经成为单一维度，而新加坡华人的身份及中华性正面临着被完全被侵蚀的威胁。 这篇论文试图分析新加坡华人的认同感和归属感是如何受到社交媒体平台TikTok和Instagram的影响的，尤其关注新加坡华人的年轻一代。 In recent years when social networks are all shifting into the virtual paradigm, there has been increasing concerns as to how social media can influence an individual’s sense of identity. In this digital age where almost every youth has a social media account, everyone is an actor putting on a show in this virtual stage. The social network of the Chinese community in Singapore used to be multi-dimensional and colourful, however with the influence of changes to the physical environment as well as penetration of social media that lead to the shift from traditional social networks to modern social networks, the social network of Singaporean Chinese today has become single dimensional, and the Chineseness of the Singaporean Chinese’s sense of identity is facing the threat of being eroded completely. This thesis paper seeks to analyse how the sense of identity among Singaporean Chinese are influenced by social media platforms TikTok and Instagram, particularly focusing on the younger generation of Singaporean Chinese.
