description | ObjectiveTo discuss the relationship between general self-efficacy and mobile game addiction among middle school students, and to analyse the mediating role of time management disposition.MethodsFrom November 2020 to February 2021, a sample of 667 students were recruited from three middle schools in Jiangxi and Sichuan provinces using cluster sampling method. All selected students were assessed using General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), Mobile Game Addiction Scale and Adolescence Time Management Disposition Inventory (ATMD). Further, Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effect.Results①The total score of Mobile Game Addiction Scale was negatively correlated with the total scores of GSES and ATMD (r=-0.122, -0.333, P<0.01). The total score of ATMD was positively correlated with the total score of GSES (r=0.536, P<0.01). ②General self-efficacy and time management disposition could predict the mobile game addiction negatively (β=-0.333, -0.122, P<0.01), and general self-efficacy could predict the time management disposition positively (β=0.536, P<0.01). ③Time management disposition played a full mediating role between general self-efficacy and mobile game addiction, with a mediating effect size of -0.159 (95% CI: -0.213~-0.112, P<0.01), accounting for 70.38% of the total effect.ConclusionGeneral self-efficacy indirectly affects mobile game addiction via time management disposition. |
