摘要

导致南非大学生情绪困扰的心理过程尚未得到广泛研究。本研究试图检验重复性消极思维在体验回避和学生情绪困扰之间关系中的中介作用。来自南非一所大型公立大学的419名学生参加了这项研究。结果表明，经验回避和重复消极思维对情绪困扰有正向预测作用。此外，重复的消极思维在一定程度上调节了体验回避和情绪困扰之间的互动。这些发现强调了在南非高等教育环境中，针对体验式回避和重复性消极思维在缓解和管理学生情绪困扰方面的重要性。

Repetitive negative thinking mediates the relationship between experiential avoidance and emotional distress among South African university students

The psychological processes contributing to emotional distress among university students in South Africa have not been extensively researched. The current study sought to examine the mediating role of repetitive negative thinking on the relationship between experiential avoidance and student emotional distress. A convenience sample of 419 students from a large public university in South Africa participated in this study. The results indicated that experiential avoidance and repetitive negative thinking positively predict emotional distress. Furthermore, repetitive negative thinking partially mediates the interaction between experiential avoidance and emotional distress. These findings highlight the importance of targeting experiential avoidance and repetitive negative thinking in the alleviation and management of emotional distress among students in the South African higher education environment.
