Abstract

Abstract: In this thesis, we surveyed 600 people with disabilities by using the questionnaires, and examined the mediating role of self-esteem in the relationship between perceived social support and life satisfaction of people with disabilities and whether this process was moderated by communication. The results indicated that: 1)Self-esteem completely mediate the relationship between perceived social support and life satisfaction. 2)The mediating role of self-esteem is moderated by communication, and the communication moderates the second half process of perceived social support- self-esteem- life Satisfaction. As a result, the effect of perceived social support on life satisfaction of people with disabilities is a moderated mediator. This research had a reference value to improve the life satisfaction of people with disabilities and guide the relevant theoretical research.

Key words: people with disabilities, perceived social support, life satisfaction, self-esteem, communication

摘要： 采用问卷法调查了600名残疾人，考察了自尊在残疾人领悟社会支持与其生活满意度之间关系的中介作用以及该过程是否受到沟通的调节。结果发现：（1）自尊在残疾人领悟社会支持与其生活满意度之间起着完全中介作用；（2）自尊的中介作用受沟通的调节，沟通调节了领悟社会支持——自尊——生活满意度这一中介过程的后半路径。因此，残疾人领悟社会支持对其生活满意度的影响是有调节的中介效应。研究对提高残疾人生活满意度并指导相关理论研究具有参考价值。
