摘要

虽然问题游戏（即因使用电子游戏而对生活造成负面影响）与流动性呈正相关，但其与倾向性正念的关系仍不清楚。然而，相关领域的研究表明，倾向性正念与问题赌博呈负相关。因此，本研究试图考察在控制玩最喜欢的游戏时的流的倾向性（控制感和吸收感）、每周游戏时间和性别的情况下，倾向性正念是否会预测问题游戏。经常玩游戏的成年玩家（人数=1015；29.7%为女性；年龄=23.29岁，SD=4.58）完成了一项在线调查。分层多元回归的结果显示，在控制流量、性别和游戏时长的情况下，较低的正念倾向能显著预测更严重的游戏问题。这些结果表明了正念和流动对问题游戏报告的重要性。研究表明，正念对预防问题行为很有帮助，因此本研究对其意义进行了讨论。

The Role of Dispositional Mindfulness and Flow in Predicting Problematic Video Game Use

While problematic gaming (i.e., experiencing negative life consequences from video game use) has been positively associated with flow, its relationship to dispositional mindfulness remains unclear. However, research in a related area suggests dispositional mindfulness is negatively associated with problematic gambling. Thus, the present study sought to examine whether dispositional mindfulness would predict problematic gaming when controlling for dispositional aspects of flow (sense of control and absorption) while playing a favourite game, weekly hours spent gaming, and gender. Frequent adult gamers (N=1015; 29.7% female; Mage=23.29 years, SD=4.58) completed an online survey. Results from hierarchical multiple regression revealed lower dispositional mindfulness significantly predicted greater problematic gaming when controlling for flow, gender, and hours spent gaming. These results demonstrate the importance of mindfulness and flow on reports of problematic gaming. Implications are discussed in light of research suggesting mindfulness may be useful in the prevention of problematic behaviours.

期刊介绍： The international peer-reviewed Journal of Happiness Studies is devoted to theoretical and applied advancements in all areas of well-being research. It covers topics referring to both the hedonic and eudaimonic perspectives characterizing well-being studies. The former includes the investigation of cognitive dimensions such as satisfaction with life, and positive affect and emotions. The latter includes the study of constructs and processes related to optimal psychological functioning, such as meaning and purpose in life, character strengths, personal growth, resilience, optimism, hope, and self-determination. In addition to contributions on appraisal of life-as-a-whole, the journal accepts papers investigating these topics in relation to specific domains, such as family, education, physical and mental health, and work. The journal welcomes high-quality theoretical and empirical submissions in the fields of economics, psychology and sociology, as well as contributions from researchers in the domains of education, medicine, philosophy and other related fields. The Journal of Happiness Studies provides a forum for three main areas in happiness research: 1) theoretical conceptualizations of well-being, happiness and the good life; 2) empirical investigation of well-being and happiness in different populations, contexts and cultures; 3) methodological advancements and development of new assessment instruments. The journal addresses the conceptualization, operationalization and measurement of happiness and well-being dimensions, as well as the individual, socio-economic and cultural factors that may interact with them as determinants or outcomes. Central Questions include, but are not limited to: Conceptualization: What meanings are denoted by terms like happiness and well-being? How do these fit in with broader conceptions of the good life? Operationalization and Measurement: Which methods can be used to assess how people feel about life? How to operationalize a new construct or an understudied dimension in the well-being domain? What are the best measures for investigating specific well-being related constructs and dimensions? Prevalence and causality Do individuals belonging to different populations and cultures vary in their well-being ratings? How does individual well-being relate to social and economic phenomena (characteristics, circumstances, behavior, events, and policies)? What are the personal, social and economic determinants and causes of individual well-being dimensions? Evaluation: What are the consequences of well-being for individual development and socio-economic progress? Are individual happiness and well-being worthwhile goals for governments and policy makers? Does well-being represent a useful parameter to orient planning in physical and mental healthcare, and in public health? Interdisciplinary studies: How has the study of happiness developed within and across disciplines? Can we link philosophical thought and empirical research? What are the biological correlates of well-being dimensions?
