The Relationship Between Rejection Sensitivity and Pathological Internet Use of Left-Behind Middle School Students: The Multiple Mediating Effects of Meaning in Life and Self-Stigma

doi:10.12139/j.1672-0628.2022.02.011

Abstract

Abstract: The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between rejection sensitivity, meaning in life, self-stigma, and pathological Internet use among left-behind middle school students. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 803 left-behind middle school students in 20 middle schools of one province by using Self-reported Questionnaire for Adolescents’ Rejection Sensitivity, Meaning in Life Questionnaire Chinese version, Self-reported Questionnaire for Left-behind Children’s Self-Stigma, and Adolescent Pathological Internet Use Scale. The results showed that: 1) rejection sensitivity positively predicted pathological Internet use directly; 2) the presence of meaning, self-stigma and its chain partially mediated the relationship between rejection sensitivity and pathological Internet use. The results provide a theoretical basis both for interpreting the cause of left-behind middle school students’ pathological Internet use problem and for its educational intervention.

Key words: pathological Internet use, rejection sensitivity, meaning in life, self-stigma, left-behind middle school students

摘要： 为探究留守中学生拒绝敏感性、生命意义感、自我污名与病理性网络使用之间的关系，采用青少年拒绝敏感性自陈问卷、生命意义感量表中文修订版、留守儿童自我污名自陈问卷，以及青少年病理性互联网使用量表，对803名留守中学生进行调查。结果发现：拒绝敏感性既可直接正向预测，也可经拥有意义感、自我污名以及二者的链式中介作用间接正向预测留守中学生的病理性网络使用行为。研究结果可为解释留守中学生病理性网络使用问题的成因及教育干预提供理论依据。
