Since2010, the first year of micro-blog, micro-blog had infiltrated into every aspect in life and rapidly become the most important way of people socializing and gaining information. Every coin has two sides, as the outcome of using micro-blog there is so much positive information and negative information as cyber-violence as well, such as Internet mass hunting, verbal attack, torture of animals and ugly fact of life. Will the different information affect college students’character?This article intends to study how the different information in micro-blog will affect college students’aggressive tendency in the aspect of psychology. Experiment materials are Young Internet Addiction Scale, Buss Aggressive Questionnaire and IAT test. Participants are college students including undergraduates and graduates. This is a2*3between groups experiment design. Participants are divided into positive group, negative group and comparison group according to their micro-blogging condition. The results show:1. RT of positive group participants in the consistency task ("self+aggressive") is significantly higher than the inconsistency task ("self+non-aggressive");2. Significant RT difference exists between consistency task ("self+aggressive") and inconsistency task ("self+non-aggressive") in positive group. Which indicates that as the evoke of the positive pictures, the positive group participants may link themselves with non-aggressive attitude more;3. RT of positive and comparison group participants in the consistency task ("aggressive+negative evaluation") are significantly higher than in the inconsistency task ("aggressive+positive evaluation");4. There’s No significant difference between consistency task ("aggressive+negative evaluation") and inconsistency task ("aggressive+positive evaluation") of negative group participants;5. RT of participants not commonly using micro-blog in consistency task ("self+aggressive") and "aggressive+negative evaluation") are higher than RT in the inconsistency task ("self+non-aggressive" and "aggressive+negative evaluation"), indicating that they make link themselves with non-aggressive more and evaluate aggressive more negatively;6. Correlation of explicit aggression and implicit aggression is not significant which means explicit aggression and implicit aggression are two separate psychological structures;7. Explicit aggressive statistics show that male’s score in physical aggression dimension was significantly higher than female’s, while female’s score in verbal aggression were significantly higher than male. As in the dimension of anger, hostility, and whole explicit aggression score, there’s no significant difference between male and female;8. Internet addiction has no significant correlation with explicit aggression while there’s correlation between body attack, anger and hostility;9. The grade of participants has correlation with explicit aggression which means as the higher of the grade, the less explicit aggression the participants will show.
