Abstract

Purposes: Analyze characteristics of network misconduct of college students and study its correlation with regulatory emotional self-efficacy through scale survey of network misconduct of college students. Methods: Conduct the test on 1321 college students by using the scale of network misconduct and regulatory emotional self-efficacy of college students. SPSS was used to compile effective data. Statistical analysis was made using descriptive statistics, independent sample t test and one-way analysis of variance. Results: 1) M ± SD for network words anomie, study anomie and infringement are: 8.76 ± 2.07; 7.40 ± 2.17; 5.21 ± 2.16. 2) There are significant differences of network misconduct of college students on genders, education levels, majors and grades. (t = 12.510, p < 0.001; t = 50.957, P < 0.001; t = 23.840, p < 0.001; t = 28.576, P < 0.001). 3) Conclusions of significantly negative correlation between regulatory emotional self-efficacy and network misconduct (r = -0.134, p < 0.01). For college student, network misconduct includes network words anomie, study anomie and infringement behavior, among which, network words anomie is more prominent; and self-efficacy concerning college students’ emotion regulation has significantly negative correlation with network misconduct.

Highlights

  • Network misconduct means that in the network society built on the basis of internet, behavior of people violates certain social norms and behavior codes that are to be followed and displays deviation in the fictitious space as well as the behavior deviation due to misuse of internet [1]

  • Du ty; rights and interests of various behavioral agents will be harmed; self-disorder of individuals as agent of network behavior will be harmful to the body and the mind; and it may even interrupt or hinder the normal operation of the “network society” [3]

  • Difference of network misconduct for students on genders is analyzed by independent sample t test and the result indicates that average value of male students is 22.66 and standard deviation is 4.73; average score of female students is 19.33 and standard deviation is 3.27; t = 12.51, p < 0.001; and the difference is great

Summary

Introduction

Network misconduct means that in the network society built on the basis of internet, behavior of people violates certain social norms and behavior codes that are to be followed and displays deviation in the fictitious space as well as the behavior deviation due to misuse of internet [1]. Some scholars maintain that pathological network use is “internet addiction disorder” (IAD in short), which mainly means that behavior of overindulging browsing, playing games online or building interpersonal relationships through network which cause negative effects for the addict Matchell defines it as “anxious and emotional behavior occurring after compulsive overuse of internet and deprivation of access of internet” [10]. According to the four characteristics of the network misconduct, this study redefines the concept of network misconduct and maintains that network misconduct means the behavior in the network society built on the basis of the internet violating requirements of network regulations and codes, the result of which may cause danger and harm to body, mind, rights and interests of oneself or other members of the network society and may even interrupt or hinder the normal operation of the network society and the development of the society in the long run. The scale for network misconduct of college students shall be prepared and survey shall be conducted according to the scope and content of this definition; at the same time, relation between network misconduct of college students and emotional self-efficacy shall be studied, and the factors influencing network misconduct of college students shall be further explored
