Abstract

Abstract:

To explore the network structure characteristics and core variables of college students’ stress symptoms and coping strategies, we conducted a survey on stress symptoms and coping strategies among 248 college students using a questionnaire. Network analysis and visualization were performed with R software. The results revealed that meaning making had higher strength, betweenness centrality, and closeness centrality in the network than other nodes, indicating a significant expected influence, suggesting that meaning construction has an adaptive function, which can promote individual stress coping and reduce stress-related symptoms. These findings provide a basis for developing relevant intervention strategies for college students.

Key words: perceived stress, coping strategies, meaning making, network analysis

摘要：

为探索大学生压力症状与应对方式的网络结构特征与核心变量, 采用问卷法对248名大学生的压力症状与压力应对进行调查, 使用R软件进行网络分析和可视化。结果表明, 意义建构在网络中的强度、中间中心度和接近中心度均高于其他节点, 有较高的预期影响, 说明意义建构具有适应性功能, 可以促进个体的压力应对, 减少压力相关的症状。研究结果可为制定大学生心理干预策略提供依据。
