The Relationship among Self-Supporting Personality, Self-Efficacy and Self-Control of Undergraduates

Abstract

Abstract: This study tried to explore the relationship among self-supporting personality, self-efficacy and self-control with Self-Supporting Personality Scale for Adolescent Students(SSPS-AS), General Self-efficacy Scale(GSES) and College Students Self-control Questionnaire. In this study a sample of 553 college students was drawn from a university by using the cluster sampling method. After deleting the incomplete data and unserious answers, the 525 valid subjects were obtained. In this study, the correlation analysis, regression analysis and structural equation modeling were used to analyze the data. The results revealed: 1)Self-supporting personality, self-efficacy and self-control of undergraduates had significantly correlations among each other; The eight traits of self-supporting personality except interpersonal openness had significant correlations with self-efficacy; Self-efficacy had significant correlations with the six dimensions of self-control; The nine traits of self-supporting personality had significant correlations with self-control. 2)Personal openness, interpersonal flexibility and interpersonal independence could not only directly predict self-control, but also indirectly predict self-control through mediation of self-efficacy, while personal independence and personal flexibility could only indirectly predict self-control through mediation of self-efficacy.

Key words: self-supporting personality, self-efficacy, self-control, trait, undergraduate.

摘要： 运用问卷法以553名大学生为研究对象探讨了自立人格、自我效能和自我控制三者之间的关系。研究结果显示：（1）自立、自我效能和自我控制三者两两之间相关非常显著；除人际开放外，自立的其他特质都与自我效能呈显著相关；自我效能与自我控制的六个维度也呈显著的相关；自立的各种特质与自我控制都有显著的相关。（2）自我效能在个人独立和个人灵活对自我控制的影响中起着完全中介的作用，在个人开放、人际灵活和人际独立对自我控制的影响中起着部分中介的作用。
