PURPOSE: Recent research has identified a relationship between perceived stress and problematic smartphone usage. However, little is known about the underlying mediating and moderating mechanisms. The present study aimed to test the relationship between perceived stress and problematic smartphone usage as well as the mediating role of online social support and the moderating role of perceived social support among Chinese undergraduates. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A sample of 1123 college students participated in the study. The Perceived Stress Scale, Mobile Phone Addiction Index Scale, Online Social Support Questionnaire, and Perceived Social Support Scale were used. RESULTS: Perceived stress was significantly and positively associated with problematic smartphone usage, and online social support partially mediated the relationship between perceived stress and problematic smartphone usage. Moderated mediation analysis suggested that perceived social support moderated the association between perceived stress and online social support. This relationship became stronger for college students with lower levels of perceived social support. CONCLUSION: The results of this study can contribute to a better understanding of how perceived stress increases the risk of problematic smartphone usage. The importance of reducing online social support and enhancing perceived social support in preventing undergraduates' problematic smartphone usage is highlighted. The findings should be taken with caution given the convenience sampling and cross-sectional study design.
目的:近期研究已确定感知压力与问题性智能手机使用之间的关系。然而,对于潜在的中介和调节机制知之甚少。本研究旨在检验中国大学生中感知压力与问题性智能手机使用之间的关系,以及在线社会支持的中介作用和感知社会支持的调节作用。 患者与方法:1123名大学生参与了本研究。使用了感知压力量表、手机成瘾指数量表、在线社会支持问卷和感知社会支持量表。 结果:感知压力与问题性智能手机使用显著正相关,且在线社会支持部分中介了感知压力与问题性智能手机使用之间的关系。调节中介分析表明,感知社会支持调节了感知压力与在线社会支持之间的关联。对于感知社会支持水平较低的大学生,这种关系更强。 结论:本研究结果有助于更好地理解感知压力如何增加问题性智能手机使用的风险。强调了减少在线社会支持和增强感知社会支持在预防大学生问题性智能手机使用中的重要性。鉴于便利抽样和横断面研究设计,这些发现应谨慎看待。
