Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between parental rearing style and mental health of community correction offenders, as well as the mediating role of personality and coping styles in it.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted on 385 community correction offenders by the Egma Minnen av Bardndosna uppforstran(EMBU), symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90), NEO five-factor inventory(NEO-FFI) and simplified coping style questionnaire(SCSQ) from February to July 2022.SPSS 27.0 software was used for correlation analysis and regression analysis.AMOS 26.0 was used for the construction of structural equation, and Bootstrap was used for mediating effect analysis.Results:In parental rearing styles, the dimension of parents' severe punishment(19.09±5.32, 12.93±4.77), father's preference for subjects(9.29±3.30), father's excessive protection(10.40±2.19), mother's excessive interference and protection(33.81±6.06)and parents' refusal and denial (9.08±3.03, 12.17±4.25) were significantly positively correlated with the total score of SCL-90 (140.63±44.28)( r=0.114, 0.168, 0.121, 0.144, 0.224, 0.187, 0.220 respectively, all P<0.05). Parents' emotional warmth and understanding, parents' severe punishment and parents' refusal and denial were significantly correlated with coping styles ( r=0.420, 0.420, -0.189, -0.190, -0.174, -0.163 respectively, P<0.05). Neuroticism, extraversion, conformity, rigor in personality were significantly correlated with the total score of SCL-90 ( r=0.542, -0.442, -0.204, -0.202 respectively, P<0.05). Coping style was significantly negatively correlated with the total score of SCL-90 ( r=-0.352, P<0.05). The father's refusal and denial, the mother's emotional warmth and understanding, the mother's excessive interference and protection in the parental rearing styles could predict the mental health of community correction offenders ( β=0.191, -0.163, 0.233 respectively, P<0.05). Coping styles had a negative predictive effect on mental health ( β=-0.352, P<0.05). Neuroticism, preciseness and extra-version in personality could predict mental health ( β=0.461, 0.183, -0.281 respectively, P<0.05). The pathway coefficient of parental rearing styles → mental health was 0.261 ( P<0.001), and the direct effect was significant. The confidence intervals of parental rearing styles → personality traits → mental health path, parental rearing styles → coping tendency → mental health path did not include 0, indicating that partial mediating effect of personality traits and coping tendency were significant. Conclusion:Personality traits and coping styles play a mediating role in the influence of parental rearing style on mental health of community correction offenders.
