Based on the integrated model of emotion processes and cognition in social information processing, this study investigated the relationship between parents' working through information and communication technologies after hours (W _IC Ts) and harsh parenting and its inner mechanism. A sample of 949 preschoolers' parents was re­cruited to fill out Working through Information and Communication Technologies after Hour Scale, Harsh Parenting Scale, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale and Perceived Supervisor Support Scale. Data was collected from self-re­port. Results showed that: (1) W _ICTs positively predicted harsh parenting in parents; (2) Anxiety/ depression me­diated this association; (3) This mediating effect was moderated by perceived supervisor support. Specifically, com­pared with parents with high perceived supervisor support, the W _ICTs of parents with low perceived supervisor support had a greater predictive effect on anxiety/ depression, while the anxiety/ depression of those with low per­ceived supervisor support had less predictive effect on harsh parenting. Our findings provide further evidence of the formation mechanism for harsh parenting, which have potential applied value for prevention and intervention pro­grams.
