Abstract

Through the research of the susceptibility of college students and the tracking research of the network fraud, using the questionnaire survey and semi-structured interview, the influence of the cognitive emotion regulation strategy and the level of irrational belief on their susceptibility to network fraud is discussed. Results: College students were positively associated with tolerance, meditation, disaster, blame for others, irrational beliefs, low self-efficacy, absolute desire for the self, and absolute desire for the environment. Usually, due to the use of open network and the lack of awareness of fraud prevention, college students are exposed to fraud, and are vulnerable to negative emotions in the process of being cheated. The scores of the students in the cheated group are significantly higher than the students in the group not cheated, and the students in the cheated group improve their positive assumption ability after being cheated.

Keywords: College students; avoidance online fraud; positive thinking; irrational belief; rooted theory.
