Abstract:
Objective To explore mediating effect of coping style on the relationship between self-esteem and negative emotions among college students with left-behind experience. Methods The investiga-tion was carried out among 663 college students with left-behind experience by multistage sampling method, using coping style scale, self-esteem scale, self-rating anxiety scale and Beck depression inventory. Re-sults Scores of all scales were shown as follows: self-esteem (3. 09±0. 51),anxiety (34. 94±7. 90),de-pression (8. 80±8. 72),solving problem coping (9. 03±2. 57),help-seeking coping (5. 70±2. 24),self-bla-ming coping (3. 54±2. 24),fantasy coping (4. 56±2. 35),avoidance coping (4. 74±2. 02),rationalizing coping (4. 67±2. 32). Anxiety and depression had significantly negative correlations with self-esteem(r=-0. 46,-0. 50,P<0. 01) ,solving problem coping( r=-0. 29,-0. 30,P<0. 01) and help-seeking coping( r=-0. 08,-0. 18,P<0. 01) ,and significantly positive correlations with rationalizing coping( r=0. 32,0. 28,P<0. 01),self-blaming coping(r=0. 45,0. 43,P<0. 01),fantasy coping(r=0. 33,0. 23,P<0. 01) and avoid-ance coping(r=0. 26,0. 23,P<0. 01). There were partially significant mediating effects of solving problem coping(-0. 09,95%CI:-0. 06--0. 13),rationalizing coping(-0. 03,95%CI:-0. 01--0. 05),self-blaming coping(-0. 11,95%CI:-0. 06--0. 15) ,fantasy coping(-0. 02,95%CI:-0. 01--0. 04) ,and non-significant effects of help-seeking coping and avoidance coping in the relationship between self-esteem and negative e-motions. Conclusion Solving problem coping,rationalizing coping,self-blaming coping and fantasy coping play a partial mediating role in the relationship between self-esteem and negative emotions,while the media-ting effect of help-seeking coping and avoidance coping are not significant.
