The Effect of Family Cohesion on Mental Health of High School Students: A Moderated Mediation Model

Abstract

Abstract: Based on the ecological systems theory, this study explored the influence factors of mental health of high school students. A sample of 1020 high school students from Sichuan Province completed a questionnaires survey. The results showed that: 1) Family cohesion could predict mental health negatively. 2) Meaning in life mediated the relationship between family cohesion and mental health problems. 3) Social support significantly regulated the first and second half paths of mediating effect. With the improvement of social support, the positive predictive effect of family cohesion on meaning in life and the negative predictive effect of meaning in life on mental health problems were significantly enhanced.

Key words: family cohesion, mental health, meaning in life, social support

摘要： 基于生态系统理论探究高中生心理健康的影响因素，采用问卷法调查了四川省两所高中1020名学生。结果发现：（1）家庭亲密度显著负向预测高中生的心理健康问题；（2）生命意义感在家庭亲密度和高中生心理健康之间起中介作用；（3）社会支持调节了生命意义感中介效应的前半路径和后半路径。随着社会支持水平的提升，家庭亲密度对生命意义感的正向预测作用、生命意义感对心理健康问题的负向预测作用显著增强。
