The Influence of Positive Parenting Style on Coping Style of Middle School Students: The Mediating Role of Social Support and Self-Efficacy

Abstract

Abstract: To explore the underlying mechanism of positive parenting style on coping style, Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppforstran-own memories of parental rearing practice in childhood, Social Support Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire were administered to 3784 middle school students. The current study showed that positive parenting style could promote the formation of positive coping style, while had nothing to do with negative coping style. Furthermore, social support together with self-efficacy played a partial mediating role in the relationship between positive parenting style and positive coping style. In social support, only subjective support predicted self-efficacy positively, and self-efficacy predicted positive coping style furtherly, which formed a multiple chain mediated model.

Key words: parenting style, social support, self-efficacy, coping style, latent variable mediation model

摘要： 采用父母教养方式评价量表、社会支持量表、一般自我效能感量表、简易应对方式量表对3784名中学生进行施测，探究父母积极教养方式作用于中学生应对方式的中介机制。研究结果表明父母积极教养方式能够促进中学生积极应对方式的形成，而与其消极应对方式的形成无关。社会支持、自我效能感在父母积极教养方式与积极应对方式的关系间起部分中介作用，但社会支持中仅有主观支持正向预测自我效能感并进一步预测积极应对方式，构成链式中介。
