Abstract:
Objective: To explore the influencing factors and mechanisms of psychological distress among freshmen during the college transition period. Methods: A total of 1041 freshmen were surveyed using the Chinese Version of Highly Sensitive Child and Adolescent, the Ostracism Experience Scale for Adolescents and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale. Results: (1) Environmental sensitivity, social exclusion, and psychological distress were significantly positively correlated pairwise; (2) The total effect of environmental sensitivity on psychological distress was significant (β =0.18, p<0.001); the direct effect of environmental sensitivity on psychological distress was significant (β =0.15, p<0.001); social exclusion had a significant partial mediating effect between environmental sensitivity and psychological distress (β =0.35, p<0.001), accounting for 17.39% of the total effect. Conclusion: Environmental sensitivity could not only predict psychological distress but also indirectly predict it through social exclusion.
目的:探讨大学新生在入学过渡期心理困扰的影响因素及其作用机制。方法:采用中文版高敏感儿童青少年量表、青少年社会排斥量表和凯斯勒心理困扰问卷对1041名大学新生进行调查。结果:(1)环境敏感性、社会排斥与心理困扰呈两两显著的正相关;(2)环境敏感性对心理困扰的总效应显著(β=0.18,p<0.001);环境敏感性对心理困扰的直接效应显著(β=0.15,p<0.001);社会排斥在环境敏感性与心理困扰间具有显著的部分中介效应(β=0.35,p<0.001),中介效用占总效应的比例为17.39。结论:环境敏感性不仅能直接预测大学新生的心理困扰,还可以通过社会排斥间接预测心理困扰。
