These two coexisting mental states also reflect their inner struggles,and they have always been separated from the real life and the game world.Although they have played enough games,they have never really quit,but on the edge of advancement and retreat Wandering.This behavior presents a picture of the life of secondary vocational students addicted to mobile games.Based on push-pull theory and social identity theory,the reason why secondary school students are addicted to mobile games is that the push of real life and the pull of the game world.Identity crisis and reality avoidance have become the driving force for vocational students to enter the game,and social identity and virtual satisfaction have become their pulling force into the game.The academic stereotypes of vocational students,lack of money,the ceiling effect of individual outlets and the sense of meaningless life have contributed to the confusion of vocational students,which has implicitly contributed to the identity crisis in life and become their direct boosters to enter the game world.The lack of family cultural capital,changes in family upbringing,and of vocational school discipline and the stigma of vocational education have become indirect boosters for them to escape from the real world.Therefore,the confusion of vocational students and the restraint of family and school have contributed to the identification crisis of vocational students in real life.They must choose a export to rebuild their social identity.In view of the different subjective belief structure of individuals,they will adopt the belief of social mobility and social change to try to improve the self-esteem and self-worth of their inner group.The seemingly equal mechanism of mobile games ensure the participation of vocational students in the game world.The game world also "captures" vocational students in all directions with its unique charm.Vocational students adopt belief system of social mobility and social change,and enter the in-game group.They surpass the superiority of "academic frustration" by abandoning the negative label of "stigma" that they originallyattached.Sense;make intergroup comparisons in other different from "learning" dimensions such as technology / level,earn money on behalf of others;redefine traditional negative traits in the dimension of authority and discipline and pursue freedom,and reopened selected lower groups.The game has realized the social functions of confronting the authority of reality,creating a feeling of virtual class flow,and obtaining emotional connections to create a sense of group belonging,helping vocational students to shape the positive social identity in the game world.Therefore,in view of the problem of vocational students addicted to mobile games,it is not enough to restrict their consumption and online time on the technical level.We must focus on reshaping their social identity in the real world,and form a joint force of society,schools and families.Pay attention to their mental state,give them more sense of accomplishment,put career planning in the first place,create more extracurricular life for them and guide them to establish a good consumption concept,so as to avoid them indulging in the pleasure of the virtual world and accelerate the fate of class reproduction.
