Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the longitudinal relationships among resilience, social support, and negative emotions in college students.Methods:Questionnaire surveys were administered to 1 739 college students from a university in Hebei Province born in the same year in November 2020 and November 2021 respectively, and 1 183 valid responses were finally obtained. The survey battery comprised the 11-item resilience scale, the social support questionnaire, and the 21-item depression anxiety stress scales. Cross-lagged panel analysis was conducted using Mplus 8.3 software. Mediating effects were tested via the Bootstrap method.Results:The scores of resilience, social support and negative emotion at T1 were 58 (51, 65), 57 (51, 66), and 3 (0, 10), respectively. The scores of resilience, social support and negative emotion at T2 were 59 (48, 66), 56 (44, 65), and 11 (1, 24), respectively. Resilience at T1 and T2 were significantly and positively correlated with social support at T1 and T2 ( r=0.66, 0.75, 0.40, 0.33, all P<0.01), while negatively correlated with negative emotion at T1 and T2( r=-0.45, -0.23, -0.26, -0.24, all P<0.01). Social support at T1 and T2 were negatively correlated with negative emotion at T1 and T2( r=-0.44, -0.28, -0.28, -0.28, all P<0.01). T1 resilience significantly and positively predicted T2 resilience ( β=0.35) and T2 social support ( β=0.15). T1 social support significantly and positively predicted T2 resilience ( β=0.07) and T2 social support ( β=0.35), while negatively predicted T2 negative emotion ( β=-0.15). T1 negative emotion significantly and negatively predicted T2 resilience ( β=-0.06) and T2 social support ( β=-0.07). The total effect of T1 resilience on T2 negative emotion was -0.35, and the mediating effect of T2 social support was -0.09, accounting for 25.71% of the total effect. Conclusion:T2 social support partially mediates the relationship between T1 resilience and T2 negative emotions.
