医学生焦虑、抑郁情绪对网络游戏障碍的影响:性别的调节作用

Effects of anxiety and depression on Internet gaming disorder in medical students:the moderating role of gender

目的探究焦虑、抑郁情绪对医学生网络游戏障碍的影响以及性别在其中的调节效应,为预防和干预医学生网络游戏障碍提供参考。方法于2021年11月,选取四川省某医学院校11771名医学生作为研究对象,通过问卷星网络平台,采用焦虑自评量表(SAS)、抑郁自评量表(SDS)和简式网络游戏障碍量表(IGDS9-SF)进行评定,采用多元分层回归分析性别在焦虑、抑郁情绪和网络游戏障碍关系中的调节作用。结果①男生SDS评分低于女生(t=-8.302,P<0.01),IGDS9-SF评分高于女生(t=33.384,P<0.01)。②医学生SAS评分与SDS评分呈正相关(r=0.735,P<0.01),SAS和SDS评分与IGDS9-SF评分均呈正相关(r=0.288、0.238,P均<0.01)。③焦虑、抑郁情绪可以正向预测网络游戏障碍(β=0.245、0.058,t=18.864、4.444,P均<0.01)。④性别在焦虑情绪与网络游戏障碍之间具有调节作用(β=-0.194,t=-4.518,P<0.01)。结论焦虑、抑郁情绪对医学生网络游戏障碍有正向预测作用。焦虑情绪对医学生网络游戏障碍的影响受到性别的调节,相比于女生,焦虑情绪对男生网络游戏障碍的影响更大。

Objective To explore the effects of anxiety and depression on Internet gaming disorder in medical students,and to evaluate the moderating effect of gender,so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of Internet gaming disorder in medical students.Methods In November 2021,a total of 11771 medical students from a medical college in Sichuan province participated in an online survey through Wenjuanxing platform.Participants completed the Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Selfrating Depression Scale(SDS)and the nine-item Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form(IGDS9-SF).Then a hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted to discuss the moderating role of gender in the relationships between anxiety,depression and Internet gaming disorder in medical students.Results①Males scored lower on SDS(t=-8.302,P<0.01),and higher on IGDS9-SF than females(t=33.384,P<0.01).②SAS score of medical students was positively correlated with SDS score(r=0.735,P<0.01),SAS and SDS scores were positively correlated with IGDS9-SF score in medical students(r=0.288,0.238,P<0.01).③Anxiety and depression could positively predict Internet gaming disorder(β=0.245,0.058,t=18.864,4.444,P<0.01).④Gender played a moderating effect between anxiety and Internet gaming disorder(β=-0.194,t=-4.518,P<0.01).Conclusion Anxiety and depression have a positive predictive effect on Internet gaming disorder in medical students.Furthermore,the effects of anxiety on Internet gaming disorder are moderated by gender,and the anxiety of male students exhibits a markedly stronger impact on Internet gaming disorder than that of female students.
