Students with learning difficulties are the most common group in the process of education and teaching,a large number of whom exist in basic education.It has always been the focus of the educational circle to improve the performance of such students and promote their physical and mental health development.In recent years,due to the rapid development of Internet technology,the popularity of smart phones is gradually increasing,and the overuse and addiction of mobile phones by the public is becoming more and more serious.It is common to hear the news that people’s over-indulgence in using mobile phones leads to tragedies.At the same time,smartphone addiction has drawn much attention from the society.As for junior high school students,who are in adolescence and not yet mature,are in a sensitive period of rapid physical and psychological changes and are easily influenced by the outside world.Some junior high school students have a negative attitude towards their study because they are over-reliant on mobile phones and the Internet,which will affect their academic achievements and the formation of healthy personality,and become "students with learning difficulties".In addition,adolescence is a high-risk period for the occurrence and development of loneliness.Parent-child relationship and peer relationship are the two most important social relationships for students within this period.Parents and peers,as two significant attachment figures,play an important role in their physical and mental development.Having a close attachment can reduce loneliness.Otherwise,they may use cell phones to alleviate their sense of loneliness.The purpose of this study is to understand the current situation of parental attachment,peer attachment,mobile phone addiction and loneliness of junior high school students with learning difficulties,and to further explore whether parental attachment and peer attachment affect mobile phone addiction through loneliness,so as to provide theoretical reference for reducing the level of mobile phone addiction of junior high school students.In this study,stratified random sampling method was adopted.Students from Grade 1 to Grade 3 of three middle schools in Chikan District,Zhanjiang City,Guangdong Province were selected as research objects,and 500 questionnaires were distributed.This study adopted Mobile Phone Addiction Index Scale by Liang Yongchi,Loneliness Scale by Wang Dengfeng(the revised Chinese version published in 1995)and Parents and Peer Attachment Inventory(revised edition)to test those students,and the results of this study are as follows:1.There are differences between junior high school students with learning difficulties and ordinary junior high school students in terms of parent attachment,peer attachment,loneliness and mobile phone addiction.The quality of parent attachment and peer attachment of students with learning difficulties is lower than ordinary students(t=-4.36,p<0.001;t=-1.29,p<0.001;t=-4.78,p<0.05),the loneliness of students with learning difficulties is higher than ordinary students(t=1.94,p<0.001),and the degree of mobile phone addiction of students with learning difficulties is higher than that of ordinary students(t=6.99,p<0.001).2.There was significant gender difference in the addiction of junior middle school students with learning difficulties(t = 5.55,p < 0.001),and the addiction tendency of boys was significantly stronger than that of girls.3.In the level of loneliness of students with learning difficulties in junior middle school,there are significant differences between different genders(t = 2.82,p < 0.01),and the loneliness of boys is significantly higher than that of girls.4.There is a remarkable negative correlation between father attachment and loneliness among junior high school students with learning difficulties(r=-0.32,p<0.01),and father attachment can negatively predict loneliness.There is a significant negative correlation between mother attachment and loneliness among junior high school students with learning difficulties(r=-0.37,p<0.01),and mother attachment can negatively predict loneliness.There is a significant negative correlation between peer attachment and loneliness among junior high school students with learning difficulties(r=-0.24,p<0.01),and peer attachment can negatively predict loneliness.There is a significant positive correlation between mobile phone addiction and loneliness among junior high school students with learning difficulties(r=0.40,p<0.01),and loneliness can positively predict mobile phone addiction.5.Loneliness completely plays a mediating role between father attachment and mobile phone addiction of junior high school group with learning difficulties.Loneliness partially plays a mediating role between mother attachment and mobile phone addiction of group with learning difficulties.Loneliness completely plays a mediating role between peer attachment and mobile phone addiction in junior high school students with learning difficulties.Conclusion: The attachment of parents and peers can significantly negatively predict loneliness,and loneliness can positively predict mobile phone addiction.Attachment can further affect mobile phone addiction by influencing loneliness.Loneliness is an intermediary variable of attachment to mobile phone addiction.
