上行社会比较与大学生网络攻击行为的交叉滞后分析

Cross-lagged analysis of upward social comparison and online aggressive behavior among college students

目的 探究大学生上行社会比较和网络攻击行为之间的纵向关系,为开展大学生心理健康教育提供实证依据。方法 于2021年12月—2022年3月,采用上行社会比较问卷和网络攻击行为量表对内蒙古某高校539名大学生进行为期4个月的追踪,使用结构方程模型对所得数据进行交叉滞后分析。结果 基线(T1)和4个月后(T2)追踪大学生上行社会比较得分平均值为(2.77±0.93,2.70±1.00)分,网络攻击行为得分平均值为(1.06±0.13,1.05±0.11)分。大学生上行社会比较与网络攻击行为在两次测量中均呈正相关(r=0.14~0.19,P值均<0.05)。自回归中,T1上行社会比较能够正向预测T2上行社会比较(β=0.66),T1网络攻击行为能够正向预测T2网络攻击行为(β=0.47)(P值均<0.01);交叉滞后回归中,T1上行社会比较能够正向预测T2网络攻击行为(β=0.10,P<0.01),但T1网络攻击行为不能预测T2上行社会比较(β=0.04,P>0.05)。结论 上行社会比较是大学生网络攻击行为的原因。应引导学生正确看待自己与他人之间的差距,降低大学生出现网络攻击行为的概率。

Objective To explore the longitudinal relationship between upward social comparison and online aggressive behavior among college students,in order to provide an empirical evidence for educators to carry out mental health promotion for college students.Methods From December 2021 to March 2022,539 college students from one university in Inner Mongolia were recruited to complete the Upward Social Comparison Questionnaire(USCQ)and Online Aggressive Behavior Scale(OABS)in a 4-month follow-up study.The structural equation model was used to conduct cross-lagged analysis.Results The mean scores of upward social comparison for college students tracked at baseline(T1)and 4-months follow-up(T2)were(2.77±0.93,2.70±1.00)points,and the mean scores of online aggressive behavior were(1.06±0.13,1.05±0.11)points.There were positive relations between upward social comparison and online aggressive behavior of college students at both cross-sectional levels(r=0.14-0.19,P<0.05).In the autoregression,T1 upward social comparison could positively predict T2 upward social comparison(β=0.66),and T1 online aggressive behavior could positively predict T2 online aggressive behavior(β=0.47)(P<0.01);In the cross-lagged regression,T1 upward social comparison could positively predict T2 online aggressive behavior(β=0.10,P<0.01),whereas T1 online aggressive behavior could not predict T2 upward social comparison(β=0.04,P>0.05).Conclusion Upward social comparison is the cause of online aggressive behavior among college students.The probability of online aggressive behavior among college students should be reduced by guiding students to correctly view the gap between themselves and others.
