为厘清问题性互联网使用(Problematic Internet Use, PIU)群体的执行功能特征,本研究对59项研究进行三水平随机效应模型元分析。结果显示,PIU组的整体执行功能表现显著差于健康对照组。执行功能成分的调节作用显著,PIU组在工作记忆、抑制控制、认知灵活性上的表现均显著差于对照组,工作记忆效应量显著大于其他子成分。性别、年龄、文化、PIU类型以及材料特异性的调节作用不显著。本研究为PIU的理论研究和干预策略提供了依据。
Abstract:To clarify the executive functioning characteristics of individuals with Problematic Internet Use (PIU), this study conducted a three-level random-effects meta-analysis of 59 studies. Results revealed that the PIU group demonstrated significantly poorer overall executive functioning compared to the healthy control group. Significant moderating effects of executive function components were observed: the PIU group exhibited notably worse performance in working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility compared to controls, with working memory showing a substantially larger effect size than other subcomponents. However, no significant moderating effects emerged for gender, age, cultural background, PIU type, or material specificity. These findings provide empirical foundations for both theoretical models and clinical interventions targeting PIU.
