The Influence of Adolescent Social Anxiety on Online Game Addiction: A Mediating Effect with Moderation

为深入探究青少年社交焦虑对网络游戏成瘾的影响机制,运用社交焦虑量表、网络成瘾量表、领悟社会支持量表和情绪调节自我效能感量表,对1180名青少年展开问卷调查。研究结果显示,社交焦虑正向预测网络游戏成瘾;情绪调节自我效能感在社交焦虑与网络游戏成瘾之间起中介作用;领悟社会支持对中介模型的后半路径存在调节效应,即对于领悟社会支持较低的青少年,情绪调节自我效能感对网络游戏成瘾的抑制作用更为显著。本研究构建了青少年社交焦虑影响网络游戏成瘾的有调节中介模型,为预防和干预青少年网络游戏成瘾提供重要的理论依据。In order to investigate the influence of social anxiety on online game addiction, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 1180 adolescents using the Social Anxiety Inventory, the Internet Addiction Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the Emotional Regulation Self-Efficacy Scale. The results of this study showed that social anxiety positively predicted online game addiction; emotion regulation self-efficacy mediated the relationship between social anxiety and online game addiction; and perceptions of social support moderated the second half of the mediation model, i.e., for adolescents with lower perceptions of social support, emotion regulation self-efficacy had a more significant inhibitory effect on online game addiction. This study constructed a moderated mediation model of adolescents’ social anxiety affecting online game addiction, which provides an important theoretical basis for the prevention and intervention of adolescents’ online game addiction.
