背景:先前的工作表明,有问题的短视频使用与不良心理有关,生理,和教育成果。随着短视频平台的盛行,这种有问题的行为与自杀意念和自我伤害行为之间的潜在关系尚未得到彻底检查。此外,考虑到有问题的短视频使用的潜在双重性质,特别是它的积极方面,可能存在将这种有问题的行为与SI和SIB联系起来的潜在机制,最终驱使个人走向极端的结果。然而,这种调解途径没有得到严格审查。因此,本研究旨在调查他们之间的关系,并深入研究其潜在机制,特别识别睡眠障碍和抑郁之间的潜在介质。
方法:采用定量横断面研究设计对来自中国大陆大学一年级和二年级学生的大样本数据进行建模(N=1,099;Mage=19.80岁;男性占51.7%)。
结果:结果表明,有问题的短视频使用对SI和SIB具有双重影响。一方面,有问题的短视频使用与自杀意念的风险降低直接相关,尝试,和NSSI。另一方面,这种有问题的行为与通过睡眠障碍增加的NSSI风险间接相关,它与自杀意念的风险升高间接相关,尝试,和NSSI通过抑郁症。此外,总的来说,有问题的短视频使用与NSSI呈正相关,但与自杀意念和尝试无关.
结论:这些研究结果表明,有问题的短视频使用对SI和SIB有双重影响。因此,理解这种有问题的行为对这些复杂的心理状况的真正影响是至关重要的。
BACKGROUND: Prior work suggests that problematic short video use was associated with adverse psychological, physiological, and educational outcomes. With the prevailing of short video platforms, the potential relationships between this problematic behavior and suicidal ideation and self-injurious behaviors have yet to be thoroughly examined. Besides, considering the potential dual nature of problematic short video use, particularly its positive aspects, a potential mechanism may exist linking such problematic behavior to SI and SIBs, ultimately driving individuals towards extreme outcomes. Nevertheless, such mediation paths have not been rigorously examined. Thus, the current study aimed to investigate their relationships and delve into the underlying mechanism, specifically identifying potential mediators between sleep disturbance and depression.
METHODS: A quantitative cross-sectional study design was employed to model data derived from a large sample of first- and second-year university students residing in mainland China (N = 1,099; Mage = 19.80 years; 51.7% male).
RESULTS: Results showed that problematic short video use has a dual impact on SI and SIBs. On the one hand, problematic short video use was directly related to the decreased risk of suicidal ideation, attempts, and NSSI. On the other hand, such problematic behavior was indirectly associated with the increased risk of NSSI through sleep disturbance, and it indirectly related to the elevated risk of suicidal ideation, attempts, and NSSI through depression. Besides, on the whole, problematic short video use was positively associated with NSSI but not suicidal ideation and attempts.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicated that problematic short video use had a dual impact on SI and SIBs. Consequently, it is paramount to comprehend the genuine magnitude of the influence that such problematic behavior holds over these intricate psychological conditions.
