Abstract Problematic Internet and smartphone usage among adolescents has become an alarming social problem. Previous research suggests a detrimental effect of Internet and smartphone problematic use on psychological adjustment. Therefore, it is important to identify protective factors that may ameliorate these deleterious mental health consequences. We examined emotional intelligence as a potential moderator in the association between problematic Internet and smartphone use and suicide ideation in a sample of 2196 (1008 male; 1188 female) Spanish adolescents. Results showed that problematic Internet and smartphone use was significantly associated with suicide ideation. Emotional intelligence scores were negatively associated with both problematic Internet and smartphone use and suicide ideation. Finally, results of moderation analyses indicated that emotional intelligence moderates the negative link between problematic Internet and smartphone use and suicide risk. Specifically, a weaker association between problematic Internet and smartphone usage and suicidal ideation was found among adolescents with higher emotional intelligence. These findings reinforce the notion that emotional intelligence might be a protective factor in adolescents, helping them to reduce the negative symptoms associated to problematic Internet and smartphone use. Implications of these findings for the prevention of psychological maladjustment associated to Internet and smartphone problematic usage in adolescents are discussed.

青少年有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀意念有关:情商会有所作为吗?

摘要 青少年使用有问题的互联网和智能手机已成为一个令人担忧的社会问题。先前的研究表明,互联网和智能手机的问题使用会对心理调整产生不利影响。因此,重要的是确定可能改善这些有害的心理健康后果的保护因素。我们在 2196 名(1008 名男性;1188 名女性)西班牙青少年样本中检查了情绪智力作为有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀意念之间关联的潜在调节因素。结果表明,有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀意念显着相关。情商得分与有问题的互联网和智能手机使用以及自杀意念呈负相关。最后,调节分析的结果表明,情商调节了有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀风险之间的负面联系。具体而言,在情商较高的青少年中发现有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀意念之间的关联较弱。这些发现强化了这样一种观点,即情商可能是青少年的保护因素,帮助他们减少与有问题的互联网和智能手机使用相关的负面症状。讨论了这些发现对预防与青少年互联网和智能手机问题使用相关的心理失调的影响。在情商较高的青少年中发现有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀意念之间的关联较弱。这些发现强化了这样一种观点,即情商可能是青少年的保护因素,帮助他们减少与有问题的互联网和智能手机使用相关的负面症状。讨论了这些发现对预防与青少年互联网和智能手机问题使用相关的心理失调的影响。在情商较高的青少年中发现有问题的互联网和智能手机使用与自杀意念之间的关联较弱。这些发现强化了这样一种观点,即情商可能是青少年的保护因素,帮助他们减少与有问题的互联网和智能手机使用相关的负面症状。讨论了这些发现对预防与青少年互联网和智能手机问题使用相关的心理失调的影响。帮助他们减少与有问题的互联网和智能手机使用相关的负面症状。讨论了这些发现对预防与青少年互联网和智能手机问题使用相关的心理失调的影响。帮助他们减少与有问题的互联网和智能手机使用相关的负面症状。讨论了这些发现对预防与青少年互联网和智能手机问题使用相关的心理失调的影响。
