La Vigilancia Electrónica Interpersonal (VEI) en Redes Sociales se refiere a una serie de estrategias para monitorear el comportamiento de la pareja en redes. La investigación señala que existe una relación entre el apego ansioso y esta vigilancia, sin embargo, existe poca investigación relacionada al efecto diferencial del sexo, así como el efecto específico sobre la red social Facebook. Por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación fue crear un modelo de ecuación estructural para explorar la relación entre la VEI, la Búsqueda de Información en Facebook BIF y los estilos de apego en hombres y mujeres. Las escalas se administraron a 835 estudiantes universitarios. Los análisis indicaron la unidimensionalidad y buen ajuste de la VEI [X2 (44) = 269.8, p> .05, CFI = .955, SRMR = .031, RMSEA = .078], la BIF [X2 (44) = 1945.4, p> .05, CFI = .998, SRMR = .010, RMSEA = .028] y el Apego [X2 (136) = 4629.7, p> .05, CFI = .942, SRMR = .053, RMSEA = .052]. La ecuación mostró que la ansiedad predice la VEI y BIF en hombres y mujeres, con coeficientes mayores en estas últimas. Se enfatiza la importancia de la medición relacionada con la vigilancia y sus implicaciones.
The Interpersonal Electronic Surveillance in Social Networks has been defined as a series of strategies implemented with the help of technologies of communication to monitor the behavior of a person, in specific, the partner. Facebook partner account can be under surveillance too. The prevalence of social networks sites has been reinvented into a new way for interpersonal surveillance along with the technology capacity. This has positive and negative effects in the relationship (e.g. more intimacy and certainty but, at the same time, increase of jealously, and conflict). Research has pointed out a relation between anxiety attachment style and surveillance behaviors. In Mexico, there is a lack of evidence related this topics. The aim of this research was to create a structural equation model in order to explore the relation between Interpersonal Electronic Surveillance, Facebook Information seeking and Attachment Styles for men and women. The scales were administrated to 835 university students (497 women and 338 men). Confirmatory Factor Analyses indicated unidimensionality of Interpersonal Electronic Surveillance and Facebook Information-Seeking Scales, both with a good fit, X2(44) = 269.8, p >.05, CFI = .955, SRMR = .031, RMSEA = .078 for the first scale and X2(44) = 1945.4, p > .05, CFI = .998, SRMR = .010, RMSEA = .028 for the second scale. Second Order Confirmatory Analyses indicated three dimensions for the Attachment Scale with a good fit X2(136) = 4629.7, p > .05, CFI = .942, SRMR = .053, RMSEA = .052. Interpersonal Surveillance on Social Networks is influenced by attachment styles. Anxious style predicts Interpersonal Electronic Surveillance in men and women. But standardized coefficients are bigger for women (.18 and .23 respectively). Also predicts Facebook Information-Seeking (.26 for men and .46 for women). Results indicate the importance of measurement related to Surveillance and its implications with other constructs.
