Relationship between childhood sexual abuse and self-aggression of college students:moderated mediation effect
Objective To investigate the relationship between childhood sexual abuse and self-aggression of college students,the mediating role of psychache,and the moderating role of regulatory emotional self-efficacy,so as to provide new ideas for self-aggression prevention among college students.Methods A total of 638 college students from 5 universities in Henan province were investigated with childhood trauma questionnaire-short form(CTQ-SF),psychache scale(PAS),Buss-Perry agression questionnaire-Chinese versions(AQ-CV)and regulatory emotional self-efficacy scale(RES).Results Childhood sexual abuse was positively correlated with both psychache(r=0.30,P＜0.01)and self-aggression(r=0.33,P＜0.01),and psychache was positively correlated with self-aggression(r=0.56,P＜0.01).Psychache had partial mediating effects between childhood sexual abuse and self-aggression,and the relative mediating effect accounts for 46％of the total effect.The relationship between childhood sexual abuse and psychache was moderated by regulatory emotional self-efficacy(β=0.10,P＜0.01),and the moderated pattern was reverse stress-buffering effects.Specifically,regulatory emotional self-efficacy buffered the negative impact of childhood sexual abuse on psychache.However,the buffering effect of regulatory emotional self-efficacy weakened as the level of childhood sexual abuse increased.Conclusions Childhood sexual abuse influences self-aggression through psychache among college students,and the protective effect of regulatory emotional self-efficacy should not be overstated.
