Abstract

This study explored the relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and life satisfaction among college students, the mediating effect of smartphone addiction, and the moderating effect of connectedness to nature. A total of 702 college students (453 females, Meanage = 19.60 years, SD = 1.33 years) completed the Interpersonal Sensitivity Scale, Mobile Phone Addiction Index, Connectedness to Nature Scale, and Satisfaction with Life Scale. Following moderated mediation analysis, the results showed that smartphone addiction mediated the relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and life satisfaction among college students. Furthermore, connectedness to nature did not moderate the relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and life satisfaction among college students, but it moderated the relationship between smartphone addiction and life satisfaction among college students. These findings identified both risk factors and protective factors that influence life satisfaction among college students, providing valuable guidance for enhancing their life satisfaction.

大学生的人际关系敏感度、智能手机成瘾、与自然的联系和生活满意度：调节中介模型

本研究探讨了大学生人际关系敏感度与生活满意度之间的关系、智能手机成瘾的中介效应以及与自然的联系的调节效应。共有 702 名大学生（453 名女性，平均年龄 = 19.60 岁，标准差 = 1.33 岁）完成了人际关系敏感度量表、手机成瘾指数、与自然的联系量表和生活满意度量表。经过调节中介分析，结果显示智能手机成瘾对大学生人际关系敏感度和生活满意度之间的关系起到了中介作用。此外，与自然的联系没有调节大学生人际关系敏感度与生活满意度之间的关系，但调节了大学生智能手机成瘾与生活满意度之间的关系。这些研究发现了影响大学生生活满意度的风险因素和保护因素，为提高大学生的生活满意度提供了有价值的指导。
