Mobile phone addiction among college students is currently a common phenomenon and has many negative impacts on the students, such as decreased vision and low sleep quality. Since the existing research on this phenomenon has analyzed the net effects of causes on the result, this paper introduces the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) method to explore the relationship between five antecedent conditions (self-control, self-esteem, loneliness, significant others, and school management) and college students' mobile phone addiction from the perspective of configuration.
Taking college students as research subjects, and a questionnaire was used for data collection. Then the FSQCA method was used to obtain configuration results and conduct configuration analysis.
The results show that a single condition is not necessary for this phenomenon. On the contrary, three configurations could bring about the addiction. The first configuration includes self-esteem, loneliness, and significant others. The second configuration contains self-control, self-esteem, loneliness, and school management. The third configuration comprises self-esteem and loneliness.
The findings of this article can effectively explain the reasons of mobile phone addiction among college students and provide references for alleviating and eliminating it.
大学生手机成瘾目前是一种普遍现象,对学生有诸多负面影响,如视力下降和睡眠质量差。鉴于现有对此现象的研究分析了原因对结果的净效应,本文引入模糊集定性比较分析(fsQCA)方法,从构型的角度探讨五个前因条件(自我控制、自尊、孤独感、重要他人和学校管理)与大学生手机成瘾之间的关系。
以大学生为研究对象,使用问卷进行数据收集。然后运用FSQCA方法获得构型结果并进行构型分析。
结果表明,单一条件对该现象并非必要。相反,三种构型可能导致成瘾。第一种构型包括自尊、孤独感和重要他人。第二种构型包含自我控制、自尊、孤独感和学校管理。第三种构型由自尊和孤独感组成。
本文的研究结果能够有效解释大学生手机成瘾的原因,并为缓解和消除这一现象提供参考。
