The effect of parenting styles on college students'social withdrawal:the mediating role of rumination
Objective To explore the relationship between parenting styles and social withdrawal among college students and to reveal the role of ruminative thinking in this relationship.Method In this study,the Short-form Paren-ting Style Scale,the Rumination Thinking Scale,and the Social Withdrawal Scale were used to administer questionnaires to a total of 673 college students.Results Rumination thinking was significantly negatively correlated with positive par-enting styles(r=-0.08,P<0.05),and significantly positively correlated with negative parenting styles(r=0.34,P<0.001).Positive parenting styles was significantly negatively correlated with social withdrawal(r=-0.14,P<0.01),and negative parenting styles was significantly positively correlated with social withdrawal(r=0.22,P<0.01).Ruminative thinking partially mediated the relationship between parenting styles and college students'social withdrawal,with a medi-ation effect size of 0.17.Conclusion Parenting styles can predict college students'social withdrawal behaviors directly as well as indirectly through ruminative thinking,and ruminative thinking mediates the relationship between parenting styles and social withdrawal.
