社会情绪特质和应对方式对攻击和亲社会行为的中介和调节作用。来自西班牙的1557名学生（53%的男性，M年龄= 13.12）完成了自我报告的应对，同情，情绪不稳定，身体攻击，和亲社会行为的工具。结构方程分析表明，支持两种调解模式，但很少支持适度。情绪不稳定正向预测情绪集中的应对，这反过来又正向预测侵略。相反，共情积极预测问题为中心的应对，这反过来又积极预测亲社会行为。此外，以问题为中心的应对积极预测特质同理心，这反过来又积极预测亲社会行为，并负向预测攻击。注意力集中的应对方式与情绪不稳定性呈正相关，而情绪不稳定性又与攻击性呈正相关。讨论的重点是自我调节和社会情绪特征在预测攻击性和亲社会行为的相互作用。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Mediating and moderating effects of socioemotive traits and coping styles on aggression and prosocial behaviors were examined. A sample of 1557 students from Spain (53% male, M age = 13.12) completed self-report instruments of coping, empathy, emotional instability, physical aggression, and prosocial behaviors. Structural equation analysis showed support for two mediation models but little support for moderation. Emotional instability positively predicted emotion-focused coping, which in turn, positively predicted aggression. In contrast, empathy positively predicted problem-focused coping, which in turn, positively predicted prosocial behaviors. Moreover, problem-focused coping positively predicted trait empathy, which in turn positively predicted prosocial behaviors, and negatively predicted aggression. Emotion-focused coping was positively related to emotional instability, which in turn, was positively related to aggression. Discussion focuses on the interplay of self regulation and socioemotive traits in predicting aggressive and prosocial behaviors. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
