摘要

Abstract

In the digital age where information technology is deeply integrated into social life

non-rational online expression among university students has become a prominent problem in digital civility cultivation. Based on contemporary online public discourse phenomena and relevant theoretical research

this paper systematically analyzes its multidimensional manifestations: cognitively

algorithm-induced information narrowing and simplistic stereotypical thinking; affectively

emotion-driven group position alignment and excessive moralized emotional catharsis; behaviorally

group polarization in online interactions and instrumentalized reporting due to insufficient rights awareness. It elaborates negative implications: hindering critical thinking and information discernment

eroding rational public discourse

and challenging social trust and legal awareness cultivation. From technology

environment

and individual psychology

it deconstructs formative mechanisms: algorithmic shaping of cognitive boundaries

gaps in family and school digital literacy education

online projection of social transformation mentality

and interaction between cognitive closure needs and group identity. Finally

focusing on digital civility and legal awareness

it proposes educational pathways: integrating algorithmic literacy into core competencies

transforming ideological education into dialogical practice

strengthening rights boundary education

and fostering a rational and inclusive campus culture

aiming to guide young students to become rational digital citizens.
