Abstract

The information explosion in the Internet era has triggered the problem of attention deficit in adolescent groups. This paper attempts to construct a comprehensive analytical framework using social learning theory and group reference theory to explain how macro-environmental and micro-level individual learning imitation abilities lead to attention deficits in adolescent groups. The campus psychological salon case shows that human thinking is the result of the simultaneous influence of subject, behavior and environment, and the judgment of human thinking whether to allocate attention depends largely on the perception of environmental surroundings. If the environment or peers respond positively, individuals are more inclined to respond positively due to social learning and altered perceptions. Therefore, a simultaneous intervention at the behavioral, environmental, and individual thought levels is essential to improve the attention deficit of today's youth.
