Abstract

With the advent of the information technology and the further development of computer technology, the popularity of campus sports and fitness apps has further increased. How to use fitness apps to solve the problem of college students’ social anxiety will become a hot research topic. This study conducts a relevant questionnaire survey of the attachment to fitness apps, physical exercise self-efficiency, the willingness to engage in exercise, and social anxiety among college students, and applies a structural equation model to analyze the influence path of fitness app use on college student’s social anxiety. The study shows that attachment to fitness apps influences the willingness to engage in exercise and self-efficacy to exercise and leads to anxiety and emotions. Secondly, the attachment to fitness apps has a strong positive impact on exercise, while the willingness to engage in exercise influences social relationships positively indirectly, forming a mediation effect, and willingness to exercise affects physical activity self-efficacy. Thus, as an intermediary, the exercise will indirectly affect social anxiety. Therefore, this study proposes countermeasures and other recommendations for using fitness apps to reduce social anxiety among college students, which provides a new research idea for improving the willingness to engage in exercise and reducing the degree of social anxiety.
