The relationship among short-form video addiction, self-control, and emotional symptoms in college students: a network analysis

The study reveals a complex interactive structure among short video addiction, self-control, and emotional symptoms. Statistically, "Uncontrollability" within short video addiction and "Self-discipline" within self-control demonstrated high centrality. In practical terms, the findings suggest that enhancing self-discipline may serve as an effective entry point for intervening in addictive short video use behaviors.
