Academic burnout has been associated with problematic smartphone use. However, the mechanism underlying this relation has been inadequately explored during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 748 Chinese undergraduate students were recruited in the study who were measured with their levels of academic burnout, anxiety, resilience, and problematic smartphone use. Our study showed that academic burnout significantly predicted problematic smartphone use both directly and indirectly via anxiety. By constructing a moderated mediation model, our study found that resilience moderated the direct impact and the second half of the indirect path (between anxiety and problematic smartphone use); however, with the moderation effects of resilience, both the indirect impact of academic burnout on problematic smartphone use anxiety became insignificant. Our findings brought additional evidence on the association between academic burnout and problematic smartphone use and significantly suggested the potential solution to alleviate the influences.
学业倦怠与智能手机使用问题有关。然而，在新冠疫情期间，这种关系背后的机制尚未得到充分探讨。本研究共招募了748名中国本科生，对他们的学业倦怠、焦虑、心理韧性和智能手机使用问题水平进行了测量。我们的研究表明，学业倦怠通过焦虑直接和间接地显著预测了智能手机使用问题。通过构建一个有调节的中介模型，我们的研究发现，心理韧性调节了直接影响和间接路径的后半段（焦虑与智能手机使用问题之间）；然而，在心理韧性的调节作用下，学业倦怠对智能手机使用问题的间接影响以及焦虑都变得不显著。我们的研究结果为学业倦怠与智能手机使用问题之间的关联提供了更多证据，并显著地提出了减轻这些影响的潜在解决方案。
