摘要

为什么Z世代（出生于1995年至2000年代中期）的年轻人会成为智能手机的无恐惧消费者？这项研究旨在从跨国家的角度更好地理解无手机恐惧症，即对没有手机接触的恐惧。从来自巴西、中国、法国和美国的1326名年轻人（16-24岁）身上收集的数据表明，无恐惧症与物质主义呈正相关，物质主义是消费者对获得实物的重视。一个结构方程模型表明，物质主义的不同维度并不会在整个民族认同中一致地影响法治恐惧症。Nomophobia与巴西的幸福维度（幸福所需的财产）、中国的成功维度（作为成功指标的财产）以及法国和美国的中心性维度（作为自我中心的财产）呈正相关。这些发现对从业者和研究人员有着显著的启示。

A Cross-National Study of Nomophobia Among Brazilian, Chinese, French, and U.S. Young People: The Role of Materialism

Why do young people from Generation Z (born between 1995 and the mid-2000s) become nomophobic consumers of smartphones? This research aims for a better understanding of nomophobia, the fear of being without mobile phone contact, and this from a cross-national perspective. Data collected from 1,326 young people (aged 16-24) from Brazil, China, France, and the United States demonstrate that nomophobia is positively related to materialism, the value that consumers place on the acquisition of material objects. A structural equation model shows that the different dimensions of materialism do not affect nomophobia uniformly across national identity. Nomophobia is positively related to the happiness dimension (possessions needed for happiness) in Brazil, to the success dimension (possessions as indicators of success) in China, and to the centrality dimension (possessions as central for the self) in France and the United States. These findings have notable implications for practitioners and researchers.

期刊介绍： Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology publishes papers that focus on the interrelationships between culture and psychological processes. Submitted manuscripts may report results from either cross-cultural comparative research or results from other types of research concerning the ways in which culture (and related concepts such as ethnicity) affect the thinking and behavior of individuals as well as how individual thought and behavior define and reflect aspects of culture. Review papers and innovative reformulations of cross-cultural theory will also be considered. Studies reporting data from within a single nation should focus on cross-cultural perspective. Empirical studies must be described in sufficient detail to be potentially replicable.
