This study investigates the chain mediating roles of loneliness and psychological distress in the relationship between dormitory exclusion and college students' learning adaptation, as well as the gender differences in these mediating pathways based on the Temporal Need-threat Model of Social Exclusion, Social Support Theory and Gender Role Theory. Using a convenience sampling method, 940 college students were surveyed using the dormitory exclusion scale, the loneliness scale, the depression-anxiety-stress scale, and the learning adaptation scale. The results showed that: (1) Dormitory exclusion significantly negatively predicted learning adaptation; (2) Dormitory exclusion predicted college students' learning adaptation through the single and chain mediation of loneliness and psychological distress; and (3) The chain mediation model exhibits gender differences. Specifically, for males, loneliness mediated the relationship between dormitory exclusion and learning adaptation; for females, loneliness and psychological distress serve as both independent mediators and sequential mediators in the relationship between dormitory exclusion and learning adaptation. The findings revealed the underlying mechanism of college students' dormitory exclusion and learning adaptation, providing valuable insights for interventions.","PeriodicalId":48218,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148430959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study analyzed the complex interconnections among self-esteem, locus of control, and their collective impact on beliefs in free will and fatalism. This study was conducted in Chinese university communities, utilizing a substantial sample of 338 participants, of whom 128 completed longitudinal measurements after 4 to 8 weeks. We developed models to verify the mediated interactions among the variables utilizing cross-sectional and two-wave half-longitudinal approaches. The study identified that self-esteem influences belief formation through locus of control, and subsequently examined specific belief-formation patterns across varying self-esteem levels, offering a more refined comprehension of these psychological processes. The findings demonstrated that those with higher self-esteem and a conviction in their ability to influence life events (internal locus of control) are more likely to strongly embrace the belief in free will. Individuals exhibiting gradually lower self-esteem and a pronounced sense of external control are more inclined to embrace the belief in fatalism. This discovery deepens our understanding of the relationship between self-perception and perceived control in relation to these beliefs, indicating that self-evaluation, by affecting one's subjective evaluation of circumstances, may shape an individual's conceptualization of belief.","PeriodicalId":48218,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-27"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148425571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, mediation effects of main predictors through burden were computed to test directional pathways. A total of 317 family caregivers (mean age = 60.5 ± 14.5 years, 66.9% women) underwent a comprehensive interview measuring sociodemographic factors, burden (Zarit Burden Interview), resilience (Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale), PSS (Duke-UNC Social Support Questionnaire), and QoL dimensions, physical and psychological, (World Health Organization Quality of Life-Brief). The adjusted regression models showed that resilience significantly predicted both physical and psychological QoL, whereas PSS only predicted the psychological domain. The mediation analyses revealed a partial mediation effect of resilience through burden on QoL domains, whereas PSS showed a complete mediation effect on both domains. Finally, a moderated mediation analysis indicated that the indirect effect of resilience on QoL (through burden) was conditional on PSS levels. Thus, more substantial benefits of resilience were observed among caregivers reporting low to moderate PSS. These findings demonstrate that resilience operates through dual pathways (direct and via burden reduction), whereas PSS primarily alleviates burden. Both resources should be considered complementary targets for tailored interventions to improve QoL for family caregivers of PwD.","PeriodicalId":48218,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148406417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study examined the serial mediating roles of rumination and hope in the relationship between doomscrolling and subjective vitality among 324 adults (M = 35.24, SD = 10.44) from different regions of Türkiye. Structural equation modeling revealed that doomscrolling indirectly decreased subjective vitality through increased rumination and reduced hope. Specifically, higher levels of doomscrolling were associated with greater rumination, which in turn diminished hope and subjective vitality. These findings suggest that repetitive negative thought patterns and decreased belief in future goals may undermine well-being. Strengthening hope and adopting digital self-regulation strategies-such as limiting news exposure, taking social media breaks, and practicing digital detox-may serve as protective factors against the detrimental effects of doomscrolling.","PeriodicalId":48218,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148354290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relational and private nature of this behavior can make it hard to document, study, and understand. The purpose of the present study was to determine how relational aggression targeting the co-parent (and former romantic partner), is associated with relational aggression targeting the parent-child bond. The sample consisted of 103 divorced/separated parents (45% fathers) who were co-parenting at least one child with their former partner (Mage years = 43.66, SD = 9.39). Parents completed measures assessing their engagement in different forms of relational aggression (toward their former partner and the child(ren)), relational abuse (from their romantic partner and their child(ren)), maladaptive personality traits, and vignettes assessing perceptions of loyalty/betrayal. Results suggest that parents who reported elevated levels of romantic relational abuse and who had stronger beliefs about betrayal (rating it as morally unacceptable) also reported more frequent engagement in both forms of relational aggression. Maladaptive personality traits (both psychopathic and narcissistic traits) were linked with romantic relational aggression. Perceptions of loyalty moderated the link between parental narcissistic traits and romantic relational aggression; and the link between parental psychopathic traits and excluding the co-parent, with parents more strongly opposed, engaging in these behaviors. The positive association among the two forms of relational aggression suggest that parent-child bond-breaking behaviors are best understood in the context of wider engagement in relational aggression, however each form of relational aggression has its unique nuances which need to be considered when developing prevention and intervention programs.","PeriodicalId":48218,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-33"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148297079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In identifying psychological vulnerabilities associated with loneliness, emotion regulation difficulties have emerged as a potential risk factor. While a robust association between emotion dysregulation and loneliness is well established, longitudinal evidence remains limited. To address this gap, we surveyed a community sample (N = 492 at baseline; 374 women; Mage = 25.47 years; n = 368 at T2, n = 229 at T3) over six months, with assessments at three time points. We tested a three-wave, time-separated mediation model examining the prospective associations between baseline emotion regulation difficulties and loneliness assessed six months later, with social anxiety and depressive symptoms at T2 specified as parallel mediators. After adjusting for prior levels of the focal constructs and concurrent associations among T2 variables, baseline emotion regulation difficulties predicted higher levels of social anxiety and depressive symptoms at T2. Only social anxiety at T2 was associated with loneliness at T3, and the indirect association from baseline emotion regulation difficulties to loneliness at T3 was supported through social anxiety. These findings suggest that emotion dysregulation may be linked to later loneliness primarily via elevated social anxiety, highlighting the value of intervention approaches that target emotion regulation skills and social anxiety in efforts to reduce loneliness.","PeriodicalId":48218,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148297082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
