How Core Self-Evaluations Influences Life Satisfaction in Adolescents: The Mediating Effects of Hope

Abstract

Abstract: Core Self-Evaluations Scale (CSES), Children's Hope Scale (CHS) and Adolescent Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (ASLSS) were used by 934 adolescent students to explore the relationship among core self-evaluations, hope and life satisfaction and the mediating effect of hope between core self-evaluations and life satisfaction in adolescents. The results showed that: 1) Significant positive correlation existed among core self-evaluations, hope and life satisfaction in adolescents; 2) Core self-evaluations positively influenced life satisfaction directly, and also through hope indirectly, and hope played a mediating effect in the relationship between core self-evaluations and life satisfaction in adolescents.

Key words: adolescent, core self-evaluations, life satisfaction, hope, mediating effect

摘要： 运用核心自我评价量表、儿童希望量表和青少年生活满意度问卷对934名青少年进行施测，探讨青少年群体中核心自我评价、希望和生活满意度之间的关系以及希望在核心自我评价和生活满意度之间的中介效应。结果发现：（1）青少年核心自我评价、希望和生活满意度两两之间存在显著正相关；（2）核心自我评价对生活满意度有正向影响，也通过希望对生活满意度产生正向影响，希望在核心自我评价和生活满意度之间起中介效应。
