ABSTRACT
BackgroundThe development of executive function in adolescents is influenced by many environmental factors. Previous studies have found that perceived stress is closely related to executive function， whereas its role in the mediation of executive function remains poorly studied. ObjectiveTo explore the role of negative affect and self-hate in mediating the relationship between perceived stress and executive function in adolescents， so as to assist the improvement of executive function in adolescents. MethodsQuestionnaires were administered to 7 734 adolescents from five junior and five senior high schools in Rizhao city， Shandong province from 1 to 30 May 2022. Data were collected using a self-made questionnaire， and adolescents were assessed using Perceived Stress Scale （PSS）， Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Self Report Version （BRIEF-SR）， Patient Health Questionnaire （PHQ-4） and Self-Hate Scale （SHS）. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlation between variables. A Bootstrap method was chosen to examine the mediation effect of self-hate and negative affect on the relationship between perceived stress and executive function in adolescents. ResultsA total of 7 012 （90.66%） valid questionnaires were retrieved. BRIEF-SR score was positively correlated with PSS， PHQ-4 and SHS scores （r=0.564， 0.653， 0.597， P<0.01）. PSS score was positively correlated with PHQ-4 and SHS scores （r=0.615， 0.531， P<0.01）. PHQ-4 score was positively correlated with SHS score （r=0.566， P<0.01）. The value of mediation effect of perceived stress on executive function was 0.574 （95% CI： 0.555~0.594）. Self-hate （indirect effect value of 0.160， 95% CI： 0.145~0.175） and negative affect （indirect effect value of 0.143， 95% CI： 0.129~0.158）， separately from each other， mediated the relationship between perceived stress and executive function， and a chained mediation effect of self-hate and negative affect was also documented （indirect effect value of 0.065， 95% CI： 0.058~0.073）， accounting for 27.87%， 24.91% and 11.32% of the total effect， respectively. ConclusionThe perceived stress of adolescents may be a influencing factor of the executive function. Additionally， perceived stress can either directly affect executive function or indirectly through the separate or chained mediation via negative affect and self-hate.
ABSTRACT
Este trabalho aborda a questão do estigma, que evoca inúmeros problemas ligados ao social e ao psíquico. Um estigma é uma anomalia, mas torna-se estigmatizante quando se desenvolve ódio contra si mesmo, quando nos depreciamos. O autor considera que o ambiente familiar representa um papel nessa evolução que não pode ser negligenciado. Estuda diferentes derivações e, em especial, as consequências do olhar do outro. Se o grupo social e o grupo familiar desempenham um papel nessa evolução, é com o grupo e escorando-se nele que a situação da estigmatização se inverterá e o estigma poderá tornar-se uma força. Um caso clínico permite ilustrar os efeitos do ódio contra si mesmo. As contribuições da filosofia e da sociologia ampliam esse debate.
The author discusses the problem of stigmatization, evoking many problems related to the social and the psychic orders. A stigma is a defect, but when it is stigmatized, self-hate develops and the subject depreciates him or herself. The author considers that family environment has an important role in this evolution. He studies diverse aspects, principally the consequences of the gaze of others. Since family and social groups play an important part in this development, it is in groups and with their support that the situation of stigmatization is reverted and stigma may become strength. A clinical case illustrates effects of self-hate. Contributions from philosophy and sociology expand this debate.

Ce travail aborde le problème du stigmate : il évoque de nombreux problèmes liés au social et au psychique. Un stigmate est un défaut mais il devient stigmatisant lorsqu'on développe de la haine à l'encontre de soi, que l'on se déprécie. Pour l'auteur, l'environnement familial joue une fonction non négligeable dans cette évolution. Il étudie différentes dérives et notamment les conséquences du regard d'autrui. Si le groupe social et le groupe familial jouent un rôle dans cette évolution, c'est avec le groupe et en s'étayant sur lui que la situation de la stigmatisation se renversera et que le stigmate pourra devenir une force. Un cas clinique permet d'illustrer les effets de la haine de soi. Les contributions de la philosophie et de la sociologie élargissent ce débat.
