中文摘要：

地理学对信息技术空间作用的研究主要以城市地区为主而缺少对农村的关注,但从理论上分析信息技术应用在农村产生的影响似乎比城市更大。信息技术作为一种新的信息传输渠道、互动媒介与平台,正在改变着农村居民日常行为空间。利用中国东部典型农业大县的农村信息化发展为基础,通过问卷与访谈的方法对农村居民信息技术应用进行统计与分析,在此基础上,对农村居民社会交往空间的变化进行了探讨。研究发现：不同时期信息基础设施的拥有情况是影响人际交往空间变化的根本;随着新的信息技术尤其是移动电话和互联网的发展,农村居民人际交往空间出现极大拓展,同时相同空间范围的人际交往频次增加;互联网的即时通信功能使农村居民社会交往空间类型增多。
