宠物依恋对社交焦虑的影响——自我表露的中介作用

The Impact of Pet Attachment on Social Anxiety—The Mediating Role of Self-Disclosure

摘要: 研究旨在探讨宠物依恋对大学生社交焦虑的影响机制，重点考察自我表露在其中的中介作用。通过对316名在校大学生进行问卷调查，测量其宠物依恋、自我表露和社交焦虑水平，并运用SPSS及其PROCESS插件进行统计分析。研究结果表明：宠物依恋显著负向预测自我表露和社交焦虑；自我表露显著负向预测社交焦虑；自我表露在宠物依恋与社交焦虑之间起部分中介作用，间接效应占总效应的21.028%。研究揭示了宠物依恋通过提升个体自我表露倾向，进而影响其社交焦虑水平的心理机制，不仅拓展了宠物依恋的研究视角，也为大学生社交焦虑的干预提供了理论支持与实践启示。

Abstract: This study aims to explore the mechanism by which pet attachment affects social anxiety among college students, with a particular focus on the mediating role of self-disclosure. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 316 college students to assess their levels of pet attachment, self-disclosure, and social anxiety. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS and the PROCESS macro. The results indicated that pet attachment significantly and negatively predicted both self-disclosure and social anxiety; self-disclosure also significantly and negatively predicted social anxiety. Furthermore, self-disclosure partially mediated the relationship between pet attachment and social anxiety, accounting for 21.028% of the total effect. This study reveals the psychological mechanism through which pet attachment influences social anxiety by promoting self-disclosure, thereby expanding the research perspective on pet attachment and providing theoretical support and practical insights for interventions targeting social anxiety among college students.
