作者：

Highlights：

• We examine who are likely to build strong social networks.

• We found openness and agreeableness are positively related to exchange frequency.

• Conscientiousness and neuroticism are negatively related to exchange frequency.

• Exchange frequency is related to pleasure-satisfaction and interest-excitement.

• These two are related to relational cohesion, and aspects of online relationships.
