摘要

Objective

This study aimed to investigate the effect of mobile phone addiction campus-based physical activity among college students, examining the mediating role of rest intolerance and the moderating role of psychological resilience.

Methods

A stratified cluster sampling method was employed to conduct a questionnaire survey among 24,345 college students. Measurements were taken using the Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale (MPATS), the Rest Intolerance Scale (RIS-8), the Adolescent Psychological Resilience Scale, and the Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3). Data analysis was conducted through SPSS 27.0 and the Process macro plugin, and a bias-corrected Bootstrap method was used for 5,000 repeated samplings to test the moderated mediation model.

Results

Mobile phone addiction showed a significant negative predictive effect on campus-based physical activity (β = -0.288, p < 0.05). Rest intolerance emerged as a significant partial mediating role between mobile phone addiction and campus-based physical activity, with a mediation effect value of 0.203(95%CI [0.124,0.282]). Psychological resilience significantly moderated the path from rest intolerance to campus-based physical activity (interaction term β = -0.003, p < 0.001). The results of the moderated mediation analysis indicated that, under conditions of low psychological resilience, the indirect effect of mobile phone addiction on campus-based physical activity transmitted through rest intolerance was significant (effect = 0.300). As the level of psychological resilience increased, this indirect effect weakened and became no longer significant at high levels of psychological resilience.

Conclusion

Mobile phone addiction is directly negatively associated with college students’ participation in campus-based physical activity but also shows indirect associations through increased rest intolerance. Psychological resilience serves as a key protective factor that buffers this negative impact. The findings suggest that enhancing psychological resilience and improving the management of phone-related rest intolerance may effectively promote their engagement in physical activity.
