Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the mediating role of maladaptive cognition between family relationships and internet gaming disorder (IGD) in adolescents.Methods:From September 2021 to April 2023, a total of 52 adolescents with IGD (IGD group) from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and 51 normal adolescents (HC group) from community were selected as study subjects.The severity of adolescent internet addiction was assessed using the Young internet addiction scale (YIAS).Family relationships and maladaptive cognition were evaluated by the Chinese version of family environment scale (FES-CV) and the Chinese adolescents’ maladaptive cognitions scale (CAMCS).SPSS 22.0 software was used for descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and mediation analysis.Two-sample t-tests were used for quantitative data comparison, and chi-square tests were used for qualitative data comparison. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to analyze the relationship of variables, and the intermediate variable test was performed using Bootstrap method. Results:(1) Compared with HC group, the score of YIAS in IGD group was higher, and the difference was statistically significant((63.69±10.36), (28.96±5.20), t=21.571, P<0.05). Compared with the HC group, the conflict score of FES-CV in the IGD group was higher((4.79±2.02), (3.33±1.42), t=4.228, P<0.05), and the cohesion score of FES-CV was lower ((4.46±1.64), (5.57±1.33), t=-3.768, P<0.05).Compared with the HC group, the CAMCS score in IGD group was higher, and the difference was statistically significant((28.88±10.11), (22.98±9.11), t=3.116, P<0.05). (2) There was a positive correlation between conflict of family relationships and IGD ( r=0.504, P<0.01), and a negative correlation between cohesion of family relationships and IGD( r=-0.474, P<0.01) in IGD group. (3) Path analysis and mediation effect test showed that conflict in family relationships positively predicted IGD ( β=0.331, 95% CI=0.100-0.563) and maladaptive cognition ( β=0.372, 95% CI=0.108-0.636). Maladaptive cognitive positively predicted IGD ( β=0.464, 95% CI=0.232-0.696). Maladaptive cognition played a mediating role between conflict of family relationships and IGD, and the mediating effect value was 0.173 (95% CI=0.020-0.366), accounting for 34.33%(0.173/0.504) of the total effect. Conclusion:Family relationships are related to IGD in adolescents. Maladaptive cognition may play a mediating role between family relationships and IGD in adolescents.
