Abstract:
Objective:To explore the development and change of social exclusion and malevolent creativity in college students and their mutual prediction effects.Methods:A total of 2 397 college students were tested twice at an interval of 6 months[baseline(T1)and 6 months after baseline(T2)].The survey was conducted using the College Student Social Exclusion Questionnaire(SEQU)and the Malevolent Creativity Behavior Scale(MCBS),and Mplus 8.7 was used for cross-lag analysis.Results:There was a positive correlation between SEQU and MCBS scores(r=0.25-0.48,Ps＜0.01).The results of repeated measures ANOVA showed that there was no statistical-ly significant time main effect of SEQU score and MCBS score(Ps＞0.05).After controlling for demographic vari-ables and T1 MCBS scores,T1 SEQU scores positively predicted T2 MCBS scores(β=0.09).After controlling for demographic variables and T1 SEQU scores,T1 MCBS scores positively predicted T2 SEQU scores(β=0.12).Conclusion:Social exclusion and malevolent creativity of college students are relatively stable and mutually caus-al.
