Abstract

To explore the relationship between college students' information anxiety and coping style under the background of Internet,and to provide a reference for college student's mental health. In March 2017 a total of 1010 college students were measured with Information Anxiety Scale and Adolescent Coping Style Assessment Questionnaire.There was no significant difference in information anxiety among college students of different genders.(t=1.646,p>0.05).Male college students tend to use problem-solving(t=2.767,p<0.05) and fantasy coping styles(t=2.192,p<0.05);high anxiety group of college students tend to use the problem-solving coping style(t=2.405,p<0.05),while fewer use of fantasy coping styles(t=4.965,p<0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that problem-solving and fantasy coping styles have predictive effects on college students' information anxiety.The coping style of college students can predict the information anxiety mood.Colleges and universities should be targeted to carry out the corresponding education and advocacy work.
