| Background Internet addiction poses serious harm to the physical and mental health of college students. Insecure attachment is one of the key factors of internet addiction， while self-compassion and psychological resilience serve as crucial psychological factors closely related to it. However， the chain mediating role of self-compassion and psychological resilience between insecure attachment and college students' internet addiction remains unclear.Objective To explore the mediating role of self-compassion and psychological resilience in the relationship between insecure attachment and internet addiction in college students， so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of internet addiction in this population.Methods From November 2023 to February 2024， a total of 1 380 college students were recruited using a cluster sampling method from two universities in Sichuan Province. The assessment was conducted using the Chinese Internet Addiction Scale （CIAS）， the Self-Compassion Scale （SCS）， the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale （ECR）， and the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents （RSCA）. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlations of the scores of each scale. Model 6 in Process 4.2 was used to test the mediating roles of self-compassion and psychological resilience in the relationship between insecure attachment and internet addiction among college students.Results A total of 1 232 （89.28%） college students completed the valid questionnaire survey. The ECR score was positively correlated with the CIAS score （r=0.299， P<0.01）， and SCS score was positively correlated with the RSCA score （r=0.299， P<0.01）. The ECR score was negatively correlated with both SCS score and RSCA score （r=-0.122、-0.147，P<0.01）； the SCS score was negatively correlated with both RSCA score and CIAS score （r=-0.238、-0.263， P<0.01）. Self-compassion and psychological resilience were the pathways between insecure attachment and internet addiction， with effect sizes of 0.015 （95% CI： 0.007–0.023） and 0.010 （95% CI： 0.004–0.017）， respectively. Self-compassion and psychological resilience played chain mediating role between insecure attachment and internet addiction， with effect sizes of 0.003 （95% CI： 0.001–0.006）.Conclusion Insecure attachment can directly affect internet addiction in college students， and it can also influence internet addiction through independent pathway of self-compassion and psychological resilience， as well as the chain mediating pathways involving both self-compassion and psychological resilience. |
