doi:10.12139/j.1672-0628.2022.03.019

Abstract

Abstract: To explore the relationship between boredom proneness and adolescent Internet addiction, we recruited 1553 adolescents from 5 ordinary middle schools in Yunnan Province and Shandong Province to complete questionnaires. The results showed that: 1) adolescents’ boredom proneness significantly positively predicted Internet addiction; 2) learning burnout played a mediating role between adolescents’ boredom proneness and Internet addiction; 3) positive coping style moderated the relationship between boredom proneness and learning burnout. The results reveal the underlying mechanism of adolescent Internet addiction, and construct the processing model of adolescent Internet addiction based on the I-PACE model, which provides a basis for the intervention of adolescent Internet addiction.

Key words: boredom proneness, learning burnout, Internet addiction, coping style, adolescents

摘要： 为探究无聊倾向对青少年网络成瘾的预测作用和影响机制，选取云南省和山东省5所普通中学的1553名青少年进行调查。结果发现：（1）青少年无聊倾向显著正向预测网络成瘾；（2）学习倦怠在青少年无聊倾向与网络成瘾之间起中介作用；（3）积极应对方式在无聊倾向与学习倦怠之间起调节作用。本研究结果揭示了青少年网络成瘾形成的内部机制，并基于I-PACE模型构建了青少年网络成瘾的形成过程模型，为青少年网络成瘾的干预提供决策依据。
