As the epidemic spreads, the problem of Internet addiction disorder (IAD) stand out and getting serious. The present study aimed to investigate IAD among junior high school students during the spread of the COVID-19, and to explore the mediating role of cognitive failure between self-concept clarity and IAD, and the moderating role of mindfulness.
A sample of 1,153 junior high school students from two randomly selected junior high schools in Henan Province were surveyed anonymously with Self-concept Clarity Scale (SCCS), Cognitive Failure Questionnaire (CFQ), Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) and Internet Addiction disorder Test (IAT). The sample was obtained through random cluster sampling, taking classes as the clusters and students as the elements.
(1) Self-concept clarity was negatively correlated with Internet addiction disorder; (2) Self-concept clarity not only had a direct effect on Internet addiction disorder, but also indirectly affect Internet addiction disorder through cognitive failure; (3) Mindfulness moderates the relationship between self-concept clarity and Internet addiction disorder, as well as the relationship between cognitive failure and Internet addiction disorder. Compared with low levels of mindfulness, both the protective effect of self-concept clarity and the effect of cognitive failure on Internet addiction disorder were stronger among junior high school students who were at high levels of mindfulness.
This study constructs a moderated mediation model to explain the effect of self-concept clarity on Internet addiction disorder. It is effective to alleviate Internet addiction disorder by improving self-concept clarity and mindfulness level of the junior school students.
随着疫情蔓延，网络成瘾障碍（IAD）问题凸显且愈发严重。本研究旨在调查新冠疫情传播期间初中生的网络成瘾障碍情况，并探讨认知失误在自我概念清晰度与网络成瘾障碍之间的中介作用，以及正念的调节作用。
采用随机整群抽样法，以班级为群、学生为个体，从河南省随机选取两所初中的1153名初中生作为样本，使用自我概念清晰度量表（SCCS）、认知失误问卷（CFQ）、正念注意觉知量表（MAAS）和网络成瘾障碍测试（IAT）进行匿名调查。
（1）自我概念清晰度与网络成瘾障碍呈负相关；（2）自我概念清晰度不仅对网络成瘾障碍有直接影响，还通过认知失误间接影响网络成瘾障碍；（3）正念调节自我概念清晰度与网络成瘾障碍之间的关系，以及认知失误与网络成瘾障碍之间的关系。与低正念水平相比，高正念水平的初中生中，自我概念清晰度对网络成瘾障碍的保护作用以及认知失误对网络成瘾障碍的影响都更强。
本研究构建了一个有调节的中介模型来解释自我概念清晰度对网络成瘾障碍的影响。提高初中生的自我概念清晰度和正念水平对缓解网络成瘾障碍是有效的。
