近年来女性游戏用户群体数量增加，游戏市场为迎合女性游戏需求推出众多女性向游戏，其中乙女游戏玩家基数庞大且活跃度较高。乙女游戏是以女性为目标受众的恋爱模拟游戏。本研究立足于准社会关系理论，结合乙女游戏及其玩家群体的特征构建理论框架，通过问卷调查等方法探讨乙女游戏里面准社会关系的影响因素。本研究发现，乙女游戏玩家自身社交焦虑和对游戏化身的认同程度影响了玩家的准社会关系：玩家社交焦虑程度越高，其与角色之间的准社会关系越深；玩家化身认同程度越高，其与角色之间的准社会关系越深。本研究丰富了准社会关系理论的应用场景，为相关测量方法提供了实践参考，同时也为乙女游戏的创新与发展提供了有益的启示。

In recent years, the number of female game users has increased, and the game market has launched many female-oriented games to cater for the demand of female games, among which otome games have a large base of players and a high degree of activity. otome games are relationship simulation games targeting women. Drawing upon the concept of para-social relationships, this research establishes a theoretical framework that amalgamates the unique features of otome games alongside their respective player demographics. Utilizing methods such as questionnaire surveys, the study delves into the determinants that shape the virtual connections formed between otome game enthusiasts and the characters within these games.This study uses SPSS27.0 to analyse the data, and the results show that the degree of social anxiety and the degree of identification with the game avatars of the players of otome games affect the para-social relationship, As players experience heightened social anxiety, the para-social connection with game characters intensifies. Likewise, when players establish a stronger identification with their avatars, the para-social bond with the characters deepens.

This study enriches the application scenarios of the theory of para-social relationship, provides practical references for related measurement methods, and also provides useful insights for the innovation and development of Otome games.
