Abstract: Based on the cognitive-behavioral model of pathological internet use, this study examined the impact of adolescents’ left-behind experiences on internet addiction and tested the mediating role of maladaptive cognitions and the moderating role of harsh parenting. Participants were 525 middle school students, who completed questionnaires, including the maladaptive cognitions questionnaire, the harsh parenting questionnaire, and the internet addiction questionnaire. The results showed that: (1) The degree of maladaptive cognitions and internet addiction was higher in individuals with left-behind experiences. Moreover, the stronger the maladaptive cognitions, the higher the degree of internet addiction; (2) The left-behind experiences affected internet addiction through the mediating role of maladaptive cognitions; (3) The effect of the left-behind experiences on maladaptive cognitions was moderated by harsh parenting. Specifically, for adolescents who experienced more harsh parenting, their left-behind experiences increased maladaptive cognitions, while for adolescents who experienced less harsh parenting, their left-behind experiences did not affect maladaptive cognitions. The results indicate that adolescents’ left-behind experiences are positively associated with maladaptive cognitions, which in turn increase the tendency of internet addiction. However, if the adolescents experience less harsh parenting, the impact of adolescents’ left-behind experiences on maladaptive cognitions does not exist.

Key words: left-behind experiences, harsh parenting, maladaptive cognitions, internet addiction, cognitive-behavioral model
