Path analysis reveals cross-country differences between Czech and Chinese university students in effect of internet and smartphone addiction, mental health, and personality traits on academic achievement in the post-pandemic era

Original language description

Despite extensive evidence on the impact of various mental health issues including smartphone/internet addiction,and personality traits on academic achievement, little is known about the complex interactions between multipleof these factors simultaneously, as well as cross-country diferences in these nuanced relationships. In particular,understanding the role of the mentioned addictions has become increasingly important in recent years in the contextof the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this cross-country study was to investigate, using path analysis, the complexrelationships between mental health determinants (depression, anxiety, stress, resilience, and smartphone/internetaddiction) and academic achievement in 1785 Czech and Chinese university students using an online battery of psychological tests. The results confrmed the previously described efect of multiple factors (anxiety, stress, resilience,smartphone/internet addiction, personality traits, and sex, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness) on academic achievement, overlapping in most cases for both groups of students. At the same time, however, diferentcountry-dependent patterns of interactions emerged. For the Czech students, the variables formed a complex network of interacting factors, whereas for the Chinese students, the efect of each cluster of factors was separate for individual domains of academic achievement. These cross-country diferences have implications particularly for planning and targeting the most efective interventions to promote and develop academic achievement
