Abstract

The aim of this correlational study was to predict cyberloafing through basic psychological needs with conscientiousness and goal-orientation as mediators. The statistical population consisted of all undergraduate students of faculty of Humanities at Mazandaran University during the academic year of 2016. A total of 321 students were selected using stratified proportional sampling and the final. In order to collect data Cyberloafing scale (Doorn , 2008), the Conscientiousness of the Big Five Personality Questionnaire (Goldberg, 1992), Mastery Goal orientation of Goal Orientation scale (Midgley et al, 1998) and the Psychological Needs Questionnaire based on William Glasser’s Theory (Burns et al, 2006) were used. Data obtained was analyzed by AMOSS-22 software for structural equation analysis. According to the results, the need for survival and the need for belonging could indirectly predict cyberloafing with conscientiousness and mastery goal orientation as mediators. Moreover, the need for Fun, mastery goal orientation and conscientiousness could directly and significantly predict cyberloafing.

以责任心和目标导向为中介的心理需求对大学生网络闲逛行为的预测

本研究旨在探讨以责任心和目标导向为中介的基本心理需求对网络闲逛行为的影响。统计人群为2016学年马赞达兰大学人文学院所有本科生。采用分层比例抽样和期末抽样的方法，共抽取321名学生。为了收集数据，我们使用了网络游荡量表(Doorn, 2008)、大五人格尽责性量表(Goldberg, 1992)、目标取向量表中的掌握目标取向量表(Midgley et al, 1998)和基于William Glasser理论的心理需求问卷(Burns et al, 2006)。所得数据用AMOSS-22软件进行结构方程分析。结果表明，生存需要和归属感需要可以间接预测网络漫游行为，责任心和掌握性目标取向作为中介。此外，对乐趣的需求、掌握、目标取向和责任心可以直接和显著地预测网络闲逛。
