In order to examine the relationship between cyber-ostracism and social anxiety among undergraduates, as well as to investigate the mechanisms underlying the effects of cyber-ostracism, rejection sensitivity, and rumination on social anxiety, this study recruited 864 undergraduate students from Jiangsu and Guangdong Provinces in China using a cluster sampling method. The participants completed the Cyber-Ostracism Questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Interaction Anxiousness Scale, the Chinese version of the Rejection Sensitivity Questionnaire, and the Chinese version of the Ruminative Responses Scale. Furthermore, the mediating effects were examined using the structural equation modeling (SEM) method. The results showed that (1) cyber-ostracism was positively related to social anxiety among undergraduates, and (2) rejection sensitivity and rumination played a chain mediating role in the relationship between cyber-ostracism and social anxiety.
为了考察网络排斥与大学生社交焦虑之间的关系，并探究网络排斥、拒绝敏感性和沉思对社交焦虑影响的潜在机制，本研究采用整群抽样方法，从中国江苏省和广东省招募了864名本科生。参与者完成了网络排斥问卷、中文版互动焦虑量表、中文版拒绝敏感性问卷和中文版沉思反应量表。此外，使用结构方程模型（SEM）方法检验中介效应。结果表明：（1）网络排斥与大学生社交焦虑呈正相关；（2）拒绝敏感性和沉思在网络排斥与社交焦虑的关系中起链式中介作用。
