The Influence of Childhood Trauma on College Students' Internet Attitudes:The Mediating Role of Cognitive Empathy
The convenience sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among the sur-rounding college students(N=201).The data collected from interpersonal Reaction Index Scale,Internet Atti-tude Scale and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire were analyzed,and survey found that:(1)The childhood trau-ma score of male college students is higher than that of female college students,the childhood trauma score of ur-ban college students is higher than that of rural college students,and the only child college students have a high-er preference for Internet use;(2)Childhood trauma can positively predict Internet liking,Internet anxiety and Internet behavior tendency.Cognitive empathy can positively predict the perceived efficacy and usefulness of net-work,and negatively predict the anxiety of network.(3)Cognitive empathy has a masking effect between child-hood trauma and Internet anxiety,so cognitive empathy can weaken the influence of childhood trauma on Internet anxiety,in which viewpoint selection plays an important role.Imagination partially mediated the relationship be-tween childhood trauma and Internet liking.
