Methods From June to August 2024, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 medical students from a medical school in Northeast China, and the Colaizzi analysis method was applied to analyze the interview data. Results Three themes and ten sub-themes were extracted: mental faculties (critical thinking, etc.); social support system (peer support, etc.); elements of the network ecology (cybersecurity policies, etc.).
