The utilization of short videos by individuals often leads to the emergence of information exchange behavior. Previous studies have shown that certain students with psychological disorders exhibit addictive tendencies towards short video-related software. Therefore, it is essential to address the psychology and behavior of college students with psychological disorders while engaging with short videos. This study aims to explore the mechanism of short video information interaction behavior among college students with psychological disorders.
We conducted semi-structured interviews with 30 college students afflicted by psychological disorders in a prefecture-level city in Henan Province, China from September to December 2022. Based on the Grounded theory, we encoded 30 text materials across three levels to explore the mechanism of short video information interaction behavior among college students with psychological disorders, and subsequently build a model framework.
The findings of this study suggest that college students with psychological disorders exhibit negative cognition tendencies that can lead to strongly negative emotions, excacerbated by a lack of social support. These adverse factors collectively drive the consumption of short video content in this demographic, providing a virtual environment where they can fulfill their unmet social needs. Therefore, the mechanism governing short video messages interaction among college students with psychological disorders encompasses negative cognitive tendencies, negative emotions, lack of social support, post-video-watching behaviors, and the gratification of social needs within the confines of a virtual environment.
This study comprehensively analyzes the motivation and complexity of college students with psychological disorders in short video interaction. Although short videos provide this group with some ways of self-expression and emotional support, they still have a negative impact on their physical and mental health. The short video interaction of college students with psychological disorders is affected by many factors, including their negative cognitive tendencies, negative emotions, lack of social support, post-video-watching behaviors, and the gratification of social needs within the confines of a virtual environment. These findings deepened our understanding to the mechanism of short video information interaction behavior among college students with psychological disorders, also provided us with guidance on facilitating the proper use of short video and maintaining the mental health. In future researches, researchers can discuss more about intervention measures to help this demographic cope with the challenges from short video interaction.
个人使用短视频通常会导致信息交流行为的出现。之前的研究表明，某些有心理障碍的学生对短视频相关软件有上瘾的倾向。因此，在与短视频互动时，了解有心理障碍的大学生的心理和行为是至关重要的。本研究旨在探讨有心理障碍的大学生短视频信息互动行为的机制。
我们于 2022 年 9 月至 12 月在河南省某地级市对 30 名有心理障碍的大学生进行了半结构式访谈。基于扎根理论，我们对 30 份文本资料进行了三级编码，以探讨有心理障碍的大学生短视频信息互动行为的机制，并随后构建了一个模型框架。
本研究结果表明，有心理障碍的大学生表现出消极认知倾向，这可能导致强烈的负面情绪，而社会支持的缺乏则进一步加剧了这种情况。这些不利因素共同促使该人群消费短视频内容，为他们提供了一个满足未满足社会需求的虚拟环境。因此，有心理障碍的大学生短视频信息互动的机制包括消极认知倾向、负面情绪、缺乏社会支持、观看短视频后的行为以及虚拟环境下社会需求的满足。
本研究全面分析了有心理障碍的大学生短视频互动的动机和复杂性。虽然短视频为他们提供了一些自我表达和情感支持的方式，但它们仍然对他们的身心健康产生负面影响。有心理障碍的大学生的短视频互动受到许多因素的影响，包括他们的消极认知倾向、负面情绪、缺乏社会支持、观看短视频后的行为以及虚拟环境下社会需求的满足。这些发现加深了我们对有心理障碍的大学生短视频信息互动行为机制的理解，也为促进短视频的合理使用和维护大学生的心理健康提供了指导。在未来的研究中，研究人员可以进一步探讨干预措施，帮助这一人群应对短视频互动带来的挑战。
