Abstract

OBJECTIVE To confirm the mediation effect of trait coping styles between childhood a-buse and psychosomatic symptoms among college students.

METHODS 262 medical students were investiga-ted by Psychosomatic Health Questionnaire( PHQ) ,Personal Report of Childhood Abuse( PRCA) ,Trait Cop-ing Styles Questionnaire(TCSQ),Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Suicide Ideation Scale(SIS) and Beck Depression Inventory(BDI).Structural equation models were established by Amos 7.0.

RESULTS The positive coping scores of medical students were (34.70±4.50),and (27.48±5.68) for negative coping,(7.79±5.58) for depression,(29.40±6.22) for self rating anxiety,(1.33±1.75) for suicidal ideation,(1.26±0.51) for mental symptoms,(1.27±0.52) for somatic symptoms and (3.17±4.26) for behavioral problems.Abuse total score was positively correlated with negative coping style, depression, self rating anxiety, suicidal ideation, mental symptoms and behavioral problems ( r=0.148-0.417,P<0.05) ,and negatively correlated with positive coping style(r=-0.148,P<0.05).Negative coping style was positively correlated with Beck depression,self rating anxiety,suicidal ideation,mental symptoms and somatic symptoms( r=0.252-0.350,P<0.01) ,and neg-atively correlated with positive coping style(r=-0.309,P<0.01).Positive coping style was negatively correla-ted with Beck depression,self rating anxiety,suicidal ideation,mental symptoms and somatic symptoms ( r=-0.208--0.271,P<0.01).Structural equation modeling showed that childhood abuse had an direct effect on psychosomatic symptoms( B=0.290,P<0.01) ,positive coping styles( B=-0.129,P<0.05) and negative cop-ing styles(B=0.243,P<0.01) among medical students.Positive coping styles and negative coping styles had direct effect on psychosomatic symptoms(B=-0.194,P<0.01;B=0.263,P<0.01).The model fit indexes were χ2/df=1.576,PGFI=0.585,PCFI=0.689,PNFI=0.645,RMSEA=0.047,GFI=0.951,AGFI=0.920, NFI=0.900,RFI=0.858,IFI=0.960,TLI=0.943,CFI=0.959.

CONCLUSION The results indicate that trait coping styles as a mediator mediating the relationship between childhood abuse and psychosomatic symptoms in medical students.
