摘要
涉及愤怒的情绪失调会对个体的社会心理和情绪功能造成严重后果。本研究旨在探讨伴侣动物纽带和特质愤怒的人格维度在解释情绪失调方面所起的作用。本研究对 365 名参与者进行了横断面在线调查。通过使用 SPSS 的 PROCESS 宏,对 "情感失调取决于特质愤怒,而伴侣动物纽带调节了特质愤怒与情感失调之间的关系 "这一假设进行了调节模型测试。结果显示,特质愤怒对情感调节障碍的影响会增加,尤其是当与动物伴侣的联系程度较低时,这表明与伴侣动物的紧密联系可能会保护特质愤怒的个体免受情感调节问题的困扰。本人类动物学研究在心理、健康和教育方面的意义包括:人与动物之间的纽带有可能成为适应性情绪调节过程的促进因素,从而降低与愤怒相关的失控情绪水平以及随之而来的失控行为风险。
Affective Regulation and Trait Anger Personalities: The Buffering Effect of the Companion Animal Bond.
Emotional dysregulation involving anger can have severe consequences on the individual's psychosocial and emotional functioning. This study aimed to investigate the role that the companion animal bond and the personality dimension of trait anger play in explaining affective dysregulation. A cross-sectional online survey was administered to 365 participants. Using the PROCESS macro for SPSS, a moderated model was tested to analyze the hypothesis that affective dysregulation depends on trait anger and that the companion animal bond moderates the relationship between trait anger and affective dysregulation. The results showed that the effect of trait anger on affective dysregulation increases especially when the degree of bonding to an animal companion is low, suggesting that a strong bond to a companion animal may protect individuals with trait anger from the likelihood of experiencing affective regulation problems. The psychological, health-related, and educational implications of the current anthrozoological study include the potential of the human-animal bond in acting as a facilitator of adaptive affective regulation processes, which can reduce the levels of uncontrolled anger-related emotions and the subsequent risk of out-of-control behaviors.
