چکیده

مقدمه:با گسترش فرهنگ افراد مشهور، متخصصین صحبت از یک گرسنگی واقعی در مورد افراد مشهور و مباحث مرتبط با آن­ها می­زنند که در این بین، پیوستگی­ های فرا اجتماعی می­توانند نقش مهمی در پرستش افراد مشهور ایفا کنند. از این رو، مطالعه حاضر با هدف بررسی نقش تجربه تعامل فرااجتماعی، تعامل فرااجتماعی و گسستگی فرااجتماعی در پیش بینی پرستش افراد مشهور صورت گرفته است.روش­: طرح پژوهش توصیفی و از نوع همبستگی بود. جامعه آماری پژوهش شامل دانشجویان دانشکده ادبیات و علوم انسانی دانشگاه گیلان در سال 1397 بودند که 240 دانشجو با روش نمونه­ گیری در دسترس انتخاب شدند. به منظور جمع ­آوری داده­ها، از مقیاس نگرش نسبت به افرادمشهور (مک­ کاتچئون وهمکاران، 2002)، مقیاس تجربه تعامل فرا اجتماعی (هارتمن و گلدهورن، 2011)، مقیاس تعامل فرا اجتماعی (رابین و همکاران، 1985) و مقیاس گسستگی فرا اجتماعی (کوهن، 2003) استفاده شد. در انتها داده­ها با روش همبستگی پیرسون ورگرسیون چندگانه همزمان تحلیل گردیدند.یافته­ ها: نتایج نشان داد، تعامل فرا اجتماعی و گسستگی فرا اجتماعی توانستند به صورت معناداری پرستش افراد مشهور را پیش­ بینی کنند. در حالیکه تجربه فرا اجتماعی قادر به پیش ­بینی پرستش افراد مشهور نبود. نتیجه ­گیری:بر طبق نتایج، تعامل فرا اجتماعی و گسستگی فرا اجتماعی نقش بسیار مهمی در شیفتگی به افراد مشهور مورد علاقه و پرستش آن­ها ایفا می­ کنند. بنابرابن اعمال مداخلاتی برای کاهش تعاملات فرا اجتماعی افراطی و همچنین کاهش رفتارها و هیجانات ناراحت کننده پس از گسستگی فرا اجتماعی، می­تواند منجر به کاهش پرستش افراد مشهور و در نتیجه کاهش مشکلات ناشی از آن گردد.

In this study, 240 female and male students were selected throughconvenience sampling method. For collecting data, Celebrity Worship Attitude Scale (McCutcheon et al., 2002), Parasocial Interaction  Experience scale (Hartmann &Goldhoorn, 2011), parasocial interaction scale (Rubin et al., 1985) and parasocial breakup scale(Cohen, 2003) were used. Then, data were analyzed throughPearson correlation formula and multiple regression method. Results: The results indicated that the parasocial interaction and parasocial breakup could significantly predict the worship ofcelebrities, whileparasocial interaction experience was not able to predict theworshipof celebrities. Conclusion: According to the results, the parasocial interaction and parasocial breakup play important roles in fascination tofavorite celebrities and worshiping them.
