Abstract:Based on the dual perspectives of developmental psychology and Chinese culture, this study explored the grandchildren’s reverse intergenerational influence on their grandparents’ mobile internet product usage by hermeneutic approach. The results show that: firstly, three mechanisms promote the grandchildren’s reverse intergenerational influence: self-extension, self-development, and emotional satisfaction. Secondly, all three mechanisms coexist and take a part in the reverse intergenerational influence process no matter which period the grandchild is in (preschool age, middle childhood, or adolescence). Finally, due to the differences in physical and psychological development between grandchildren and grandparents at these three stages, the three mechanisms have varying degrees of prominence, with distinct operational pathways and triggering factors at each stage.
