Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between online volunteering and subjective well-being (SWB) in China, exploring the mediating role of online bridging networks. Using data from the 2019 Chinese General Social Survey (CSS, N=5556), the study finds a positive relationship between online volunteering and online bridging networks, and shows that online volunteering influences SWB through its impact on these networks. Policymakers and non-profit organizations are urged to support online volunteering to improve public health and establish online social networks for potential volunteers.
