ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the mediating role of negative cognitive processing bias between pathological narcissism and interpersonal conflict of college students.Methods:The pathological narcissism, negative cognitive processing bias and interpersonal conflict of 540 college students were investigated by the super brief-PNI, negative cognitive processing bias questionnaire and NRI-relationship quality version.Descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and reliability test of the questionnaires were conducted by SPSS 27.0 software.Amos 23.0 software was used for structural equation modeling, and the nonparametric percentile Bootstrap method based on deviation correction was used for intermediary effect test.Results:The scores of pathological narcissism, negative cognitive processing bias and interpersonal conflict were (3.33±0.86), (2.41±0.60) and (2.34±0.77), respectively.Pathological narcissism, negative cognitive processing bias and interpersonal conflict were significantly positively correlated ( r=0.38-0.94, all P<0.01). Negative cognitive processing bias played full mediating role in the relationship between pathological narcissism and interpersonal conflict. The model was well fitted ( χ2/ df=2.63, CFI =0.99, NFI=0.98, IFI=0.99, TLI=0.98, RMSEA=0.05). Path analysis and mediation test showed that pathological narcissism had a significant predictive effect on the total effect of interpersonal conflict among college students ( β=0.52, P<0.001). Pathological narcissism had a significant predictive effect on negative cognitive processing bias ( β=0.64, P<0.001). Negative cognitive processing bias had a significant predictive effect on interpersonal conflict ( β=0.76, P<0.001). Pathological narcissism didn’t predict the direct effect of interpersonal conflict significantly ( β=0.03, P>0.05). Conclusion:Pathological narcissism has a positive predictive effect on interpersonal conflict among college students.Negative cognitive processing bias plays a complete intermediary role between pathological narcissism and interpersonal conflict.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the relationship between childhood abuse experience and suicide attitude among male prisoners, and the mediating effect of impact of event and thought suppression.Methods:Totally 370 male prisoners were tested by personal report of childhood abuse(PRCA), impact of event scale(IES), white bear suppression inventory(WBSI) and suicide attitude inventory(SAI). SPSS 22.0 was used for correlation analysis, regression analysis and other statistical analysis.Results:The scores of PRCA, IES, WBSI and SAI were (2.60±0.62), (2.69±0.62), (2.83±0.79), (3.06±0.61), respectively.There were significant differences in the scores of PRCA, IES and WBSI among different suicide attitude groups( F=42.69, 51.06, 78.76, all P<0.01). After controlling age variables, positive correlation was observed between PRCA, IES, WBSI and SAI ( r=0.38-0.76, all P<0.01). Impact of event and thought suppression played a mediating role in the relationship between childhood abuse experience and suicide attitude among male prisoners.The mediating effect included three paths: one was the single mediating effect of impact of event, the other was the single mediating effect of thought suppression and the third was the chain mediating effect of impact of event and thought suppression, and the effect values were 0.29, 0.23 and 0.05, respectively. Conclusion:Childhood abuse experience not only directly influences male prisoners' suicide attitude, but also indirectly influences their suicide attitude through the mediating effects of impact of event and thought suppression.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To offer a revised Chinese version of the object attachment questionnaire(OAQ), and to examine its reliability and validity in Chinese college students.Methods:Totally 1 350 college students were tested with the Chinese version of OAQ, Chinese version of the saving inventory-revised scale(SI-R), experiences in close relationships inventory(ECR) and emotion attachment questionnaire(EAQ). A total of 100 college students from the sample were followed to complete the Chinese version of OAQ after 4 weeks.Item analysis, correlation analysis, exploratory factor analysis and reliability test were conducted by SPSS 24.0 software, while confirmatory factor nalaysis and convergent validity were conducted by AMOS 21.0.Results:The exploratory factor analysis showed that Chinese version of OAQ included two factors and twelve items.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the two-factor model fitted well( χ2/ df=3.76, GFI=0.93, CFI=0.90, TLI=0.87, IFI=0.90, RMSEA=0.08). The OAQ positively correlated with SI-R, ECR and EAQ ( r=0.22, 0.34, 0.63, all P<0.01, CR=0.74-0.85, P<0.01.AVE=0.29-0.39, P<0.01). The OAQ had good internal reliability with Cronbach’s α coefficients from 0.78 to 0.83, retest reliability coefficients from 0.87 to 0.97 and split-half reliability coefficients from 0.60 to 0.76(all P<0.01). Conclusion:The Chinese version of OAQ has acceptable reliability and validity.
