Abstract:
Objective:To explore the mediating roles of rumination and avoidance coping between information anxiety and suicidal ideation.Methods:In March 2022, a total of 896 college students were surveyed by the information anxiety scale(IAS), ruminative responses scale(RRS), coping style questionnaire(CSQ)and self-rating idea of suicidal ideation scale(SIOSS). The ANOVA analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and mediating effect analysis were performed by the SPSS 22.0 software.Results:The detection rate of suicidal ideation among college students was 9.15%(82/896). The information anxiety score was(73.84±17.29), the rumination score was(47.73±12.16), the avoidance coping score was(3.76±2.52), and the suicidal ideation score was(5.41±4.09). Information anxiety was significantly positively correlated with rumination, avoidance coping and suicidal ideation( r=0.49, 0.36, 0.37, all P<0.05). Rumination was significantly positively correlated with avoidance coping and suicidal ideation( r=0.42, 0.59, both P<0.05). There was a significantly positive correlation between avoidance coping and suicidal ideation( r=0.45, P<0.05). Information anxiety affected suicidal ideation of college students through four paths.The direct effect value of information anxiety on suicidal ideation was 0.06, accounting for 16.67% of the total effect. The effect values of the separate mediating effect of rumination and avoid coping were 0.22 and 0.04, and accounting for 61.11% and 11.11% of the total effect respectively. The chain mediating effect value of rumination and avoid coping was 0.04, accounting for 11.11% of the total effect. Conclusion:Information anxiety can directly affect suicidal ideation of college students and indirectly affect suicidal ideation through rumination and avoidance coping.
