ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore mediating effect of resilience between coping styles and obsessive-compulsive tendencies of college students.Methods:A total of 999 college students were selected by cluster sampling method and evaluated with Padua inventory(PI), Connor-Davidson resilience scale(CD-RISC) and coping style questionnaire(CSQ). Then SPSS 22.0 was used to analyze the date, and Mplus 7.4 was used to conduct structural equation modeling and Bootstrap mediated effect test.Results:The scores of the variables were as follows the mature coping style(15.32±4.19), immature coping style(12.85±5.33), rationalizing coping(4.51±1.91), obsessive-compulsive tendencies(30.91±17.46), resilience(53.27±12.88). The mature coping style and resilience had significantly negative correlations with obsessive-compulsive tendencies( r=-0.21, -0.21; both P<0.01), immature coping style and rationalizing coping had significantly positive correlations with obsessive-compulsive tendencies( r=0.49, 0.29; both P<0.01). Resilience played a complete mediation role between mature coping style and obsessive-compulsive tendencies(-0.060, 95% CI -0.117--0.005), and played a partial mediation between immature coping style and obsessive-compulsive tendencies(0.011, 95% CI 0.001-0.027). Conclusion:Mature coping style negatively predict obsessive-compulsive tendencies through resilience, while immature coping style positively predict obsessive-compulsive tendencies through resilience.
