Abstract

The primary purpose of this study is to examine the mediation effect of Contrastive Upward Comparison (CUC) on the relationship between introjected regulation and exhaustion (i.e., introjected regulation-CUC-exhaustion). It is also aimed to examine the moderation effect of distress overtolerance on this mediated relationship. In order to resolve the uncertainty about the causality of cross-sectional studies, this study worked on the relationship among the variables by setting an alternative model (i.e., CUC-introjected regulation - exhaustion). The participants were 167 (females, 70.7%) undergraduate and graduate students in South Korea. The results of this study indicated that introjected regulation showed indirect and significant effect on exhaustion via CUC. However, in the alternative model, the indirect effect of introjected regulation in the relationship between CUC and exhaustion was not significant. Furthermore, high distress overtolerance buffered the relationship between introjected regulation and CUC, while it strengthened the association of CUC and exhaustion. Lastly, the results of moderated mediation suggested that students with higher distress overtolerance, experienced more CUC, and emotional exhaustion. The implications and limitations were also discussed.

引入调节与学业倦怠：社会比较和过度耐受痛苦的调节中介模型。

本研究的主要目的是考察对比向上比较（Contrastive Upward Comparison，CUC）对内省调节与精疲力竭（即内省调节-CUC-精疲力竭）之间关系的中介效应。本研究还旨在考察困扰过度容忍对这一中介关系的调节作用。为了解决横截面研究中因果关系的不确定性，本研究通过设置一个替代模型（即 CUC- 投射调节 - 疲惫）来研究变量之间的关系。被试是韩国的 167 名本科生和研究生（女性，70.7%）。研究结果表明，注入式调节通过 CUC 对耗竭产生了间接且显著的影响。然而，在替代模型中，内省调节对 CUC 和精疲力竭之间关系的间接影响并不显著。此外，高苦恼过度耐受性缓冲了内省调节与 CUC 之间的关系，同时加强了 CUC 与耗竭之间的关联。最后，调节中介的结果表明，苦恼过度容忍度高的学生经历了更多的 CUC 和情绪衰竭。此外，还讨论了研究的意义和局限性。

期刊介绍： Stress is a normal component of life and a number of mechanisms exist to cope with its effects. The stresses that challenge man"s existence in our modern society may result in failure of these coping mechanisms, with resultant stress-induced illness. The aim of the journal therefore is to provide a forum for discussion of all aspects of stress which affect the individual in both health and disease. The Journal explores the subject from as many aspects as possible, so that when stress becomes a consideration, health information can be presented as to the best ways by which to minimise its effects.
