With the increasing prevalence of smart phones, adolescent smartphone addiction has garnered significant attention from researchers. Previous studies have revealed that smartphone addiction is associated with various internalization and externalization problems. Therefore, this present study aims to investigate the risk factors contributing to adolescent smartphone addiction.
Study 1 recruited a sample of 540, 690, and 470 Chinese students aged between 10-17 years for exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and predictive validity analysis of the social pain scale. Study 2 utilized data from a sample of 718 Chinese students aged between 10-17 years to examine the measurement model used revised social pain scale, smartphone addiction scale, harsh parenting scale, and depression sub-scale.
The present study revealed that (1)The Social Pain Scale had good applicability in Chinese adolescents; (2) There were significant, positive correlations among harsh parenting, smartphone addiction, depression and social pain; (3) Social pain and depression played a partially serial mediating role in the relationship between harsh parenting and smartphone addiction, and similarly the relationship between paternal harsh parenting and smartphone addiction, while a completely serial mediating role in the relationship between maternal harsh parenting and smartphone addiction.
This study provides a direct path (improving parenting style) and an indirect path (reducing social pain to reduce depression) regarding interventions for adolescents with smartphone addiction, and establishes a basis for improving the situation of adolescent smartphone addiction.
随着智能手机普及率的不断提高，青少年智能手机成瘾问题已引起研究人员的广泛关注。以往研究表明，智能手机成瘾与各种内化和外化问题有关。因此，本研究旨在探讨导致青少年智能手机成瘾的风险因素。
研究1招募了540名、690名和470名年龄在10 - 17岁之间的中国学生样本，分别用于社会疼痛量表的探索性因素分析、验证性因素分析和预测效度分析。研究2利用了718名年龄在10 - 17岁之间的中国学生样本的数据，以检验使用修订后的社会疼痛量表、智能手机成瘾量表、严厉养育方式量表和抑郁子量表的测量模型。
本研究表明：（1）社会疼痛量表在中国青少年中具有良好的适用性；（2）严厉养育方式、智能手机成瘾、抑郁和社会疼痛之间存在显著的正相关；（3）社会疼痛和抑郁在严厉养育方式与智能手机成瘾的关系中起部分序列中介作用，在父亲严厉养育方式与智能手机成瘾的关系中同样如此，而在母亲严厉养育方式与智能手机成瘾的关系中起完全序列中介作用。
本研究为干预青少年智能手机成瘾提供了一条直接途径（改善养育方式）和一条间接途径（减轻社会疼痛以减轻抑郁），并为改善青少年智能手机成瘾状况奠定了基础。
