“…Thus, it can be said that, although the boon of Internet technologies and social media platforms was indeed the same for all, the usage and benefits reaped from these platforms were perceived differently by different individuals. Social networking is therefore different for different groups of people and led by push–pull factors (Lin et al , 2020) that still need to be studied.…”

PurposeSocial distancing is an important strategy to control the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, so it is imperative to understand the behavioral impact of social distancing on individuals. This research studied social distancing from a cognitive appraisal of voluntary social distancing compliance (CAVSD) point of view and a non-medical perspective, specifically the psychological impact (PI) of social distancing on the usage intensity of social networking sites (SNS) during the COVID-19 outbreak in India.Design/methodology/approachThe study was conducted on 477 SNS users as a full sample and groups based on age, sex and work status. The model was empirically investigated using structural equation modeling.FindingsCAVSD was negatively associated with PI although it was not a significant predictor, while CAVSD and PI were significant predictors of SNS usage intensity; moreover, SNS usage intensity differed between groups of people.Practical implicationsThese findings are significant for organizations, corporations and educational institutions in both the public and private sectors. There is a need to identify subsections of individuals in need of social support and relief from isolation and loneliness. Individuals are relying on social media to handle social distancing and the pandemic, and this shows up in an increase in social networking activity.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the existing literature by positing social networking as a basic virtual need for socialization, and social media platform assists in that. Cognitive appraisal is an important determinant of individual response.

“…Personal values are comprised of cognitive, affective or directional aspects as individuals to judgment and choose ( Lin, 2020 ). In line with this, a means-end chain (MEC) ( Gutman, 1982 ) has been suggested to reveal the psychological process that players undergo to perceive the consequences associated with a game ( Shen, 2021 ).…”

“…MEC theory was proposed by Gutman (1982) to elicit the linkages between product or service attributes and behavioral consequences and personal values. The linkages between the attributes (As), consequences (Cs), and personal values (Vs) of a product or service construct A-C-V ladders ( Lin et al, 2020 ). In MEC theory, the attributes of a product or service are the “means” that allow users to achieve their desired results ( Lin et al, 2017 ).…”

“…Value perception, which may be either functional or psychosocial, refers to the results that users hope to achieve through certain product or service attributes ( Lin et al, 2020 ). For players, perceived value can be either positive or negative.…”

Section: Hypothesesmentioning

confidence: 99%

“…For players, perceived value can be either positive or negative. Positive value will be perceived if the relationship between players is intimate; on the other hand, negative consequences will be perceived when risks are incurred due to interpersonal distance ( Lin et al, 2020 ). Briefly, in social games that require players to actively engage in social interaction, in order to facilitate effective learning, it is highly desirable to evoke good game experience and high levels of perceived family intimacy ( Sajjadi et al, 2019 ).…”
