Abstract: A questionnaire survey was conducted on 2171 left-behind children from 44 primary and secondary schools in Henan Province, to investigate the effects of parental rejection on their internet addiction, the mediating role of self-control, and the moderating role of peer support in the direct and indirect relationship between parental rejection and internet addiction. The results indicated that:(1)Parental rejection directly predicted left-behind children's internet addiction after controlled for the effects of age, sex and left-behind type. (2)Parental rejection also indirectly predicted left-behind children's internet addiction through self-control. (3)Peer support played a moderating role between parental rejection and self-control, and the adverse impact of parental rejection to self-control was more potent for those who had higher levels of peer support rather than lower.

Key words: left-behind children, internet addiction, parental rejection, self-control, peer support
